Brandon Miller and Mark are both out.

Looks like we’re rolling with Miles, Terry, Gordon, Richards, McGowan, Cody Martin, and PJ.

Playing pretty well with 6mins left in the 1st quarter

Almost bet on them to win but plus 360 wasn't enough for me

Yeah getting Cody Martin back is big.

Ish Smith is playing well.

Gordon needs to give us something this game.

Miles Bridges vs Paul George is a great matchup. (You know B-Mil would have really wanted that matchup so he must really be in pain).

Sure would be nice to play full-strength at some point.

Oh man, Mensah just had a helluva trip down the court.  Big boy pin on the backboard against their big…then immediately takes a hard charge from Harden. 

Didn’t even know who he was until now, but those were some good minutes off the bench. 

[HardcoreHokie]

2 possession game with 2 mins left in the 3rd.  And that’s with Harden and PG13 red-hot from 3.

Time for Miles, Rozier, or Gordon to step up and take over.  Our second tier players have been our best players so far. 

Lets Go!

Holy wow did I get my wish.  Down 6 to up 7 in just a few minutes!  With Miles and Terry tearing it up!

91-84 good guys in the fourth.

Lets Go!  Finish this one!

[HardcoreHokie]

Down 6, Up 7, Down 9 in five game minutes.

Hornets go on a 24-7 run with our stars lighting it up, Clips immediately follow with a 17-4 run.

We had Miles and Rozier both on the bench during that run while PG13, Harden, and Westbrook were all playing.

Steve Clifford WHAT?

Steve Clifford is a bum, the game has passed him by and he needs to be canned yesterday. This team is going nowhere fast and will lose the fan base if no changes are made soon. 

How can they continue to collapse game after game?  This talent is not that bad.

Looks like Gordon Hayward is now out tonight at the Lakers.  Awesome.  I assume PJ will start.

Miller is again questionable.

Mark is again doubtful.

Melo is again out.

This ain’t gonna be pretty.

LeBron will drop 50 because Miller called Paul George his GOAT.

Speaking of this, I watched some documentary recently where they asked the current greats who they idolized growing up.

LeBron

Giannis

Steph

Durant

Guess who they all idolized?  (All the same player).

Steph has said it’s Reggie Miller but I doubt that’s the name 

If it is anyone but Michael Jordan these guys are lying

Allen Iverson.

I was beyond surprised as well, but that was straight from their mouths.

AI was a beast.  One of my favorites as well, but it’s hard to fathom THOSE DUDES idolized Iverson over MJ or Kobe.

AI was arguably more popular than Kobe at one point. Kobe didn't pass AI in popularity until about the mid 2000's.

 

I grew up in that era and Iverson was definitely the most popular player at least around my area. Most kids at school would have an Iverson jersey.
