We’re missing Murray right now… but not Ayton lol

Some wise billionaires buy stuff with the idea that if it ain't broke, don't break it. Others have to put their own stamp on it. I'd say this team is looking pretty stable moving forward with the last of the Olshey era gone. Joe has a very good shot at keeping his staff together. Tiago might get the nod, I'd imagine they'll do a search before handing it to him.

 

[Everything Beagle]

Tiago Splitter is back to .500 as a head coach

 

[Everything Beagle]

Yang had some great passes in the 3rd

 

[Everything Beagle]

Alright 4th quarter here we go

 

[Everything Beagle]

Sidy! Shaedon! Make em pay!

 

[Everything Beagle]

Sidy Cissoko also needs to be a Blazer for a long time.

 

[Everything Beagle]

Caleb Love! And we’re down four!

 

[B-Roy]

Caleb Love is awesome.

 

[Everything Beagle]

I forgot Steven Adams was from New Zealand. They *hate* the Chinese because they’ve been buying up a bunch of property in NZ. Do with that information as you will.

 

[Everything Beagle]

Yang did fine tonight

 

[Everything Beagle]

Sharpe in the post is way better than I expected

 

[Everything Beagle]

God Durant has gotta be pissed about the guys around him.

 

[Everything Beagle]

Okay final six minutes

 

[Everything Beagle]

Reath! For three! Reminding us what real power looks like!

 

[Everything Beagle]

OH MY GOD TOUMANI that drive was FILTHY

 

[Everything Beagle]

I love that we don’t stop playing when we expect a whistle. We’ve earned a bunch of extra points this season when the other players all think Deni got fouled but we take the ball and finish the play.

 

[Everything Beagle]

Never stop going after the ball! Make shit happen on the court! You get rewarded with a Deni Avdija three!

 

[Everything Beagle]

Deni FINALLY gets a call

 

[Everything Beagle]

Deni going downhill is a thing of beauty. The way he controls his tempo and stagger to throw off defenders is exquisite. He better be an all star.

 

[Everything Beagle]

Sidy is fouled! Will wonders never cease!

 

[Everything Beagle]

oooh love seeing Durant angry

 

[Everything Beagle]

Oh damn we definitely got away with that one lol

 

[Everything Beagle]

Sidy locking in and hitting those FTs was big

 

[Everything Beagle]

AAAAA SIDY SKYWALKING!

 

[Cugel]

Great win. Honestly i am speechless. Winning with g league guys getting major minutes. Guys on 2 way deals. They aren’t even “real” nba players. Splitter has me pretty impressed. HOU should be embarrassed.

 

[Everything Beagle]

I love our team wtf

 

[Everything Beagle]

This was our playoffs as far as I’m concerned

 

[Everything Beagle]

You know the Deni All Star Campaign is serious because even Calabro is pronouncing his name correctly

 

[Everything Beagle]

These two games were a crucible, a weeder course, a midterm test, and we passed. Where we go from here is anyone’s guess.
