Nice to have a relaxed ending to a win. Great game from everyone tonight.

Solid win. Only one game back from 500.

And another good game for Love.



Something clicked for Love over the last 14 games. You don't have to squint too hard at that graph to see that trend line on the rise. Amazing.

Love with another very good showing

I’m gonna say something uncomfortable.

When Scoot comes back, does he need to earn playing time over Caleb? Honestly hard to think Scoot could play well enough to supplant what Caleb is doing for us right now.

Who actually here hate Caleb Love when we picked him as a 2 way player? I read once they called him a chucker

He was inefficient early on with questionable decision making. He's obviously improved significantly. As has Sidy.

Honestly? I can’t see a show-me coach like Tiago giving Scoot anything he hasn’t earned. Yeah, he’s going to have to earn it, and I’m not sure he will. Hell, at this point I’m not sure he can.

Love is already giving the team what I expected from a post-achilles Dame. We need to keep Sidy and Caleb. The chemistry is too good out there.
