  1. Good win, hope the injury woes are behind the team now for the rest of the season so the boys can get back into the playoff hunt.

  2. Hardwork407

    Where are the Markelle haters at? I dont want to hear anything about how Markelle can’t shoot, we all know that. Where’s the folks saying “tHE spACinG iS BaD” when he’s on the floor. JT & Dante literally said it multiple times in this game, Markelle opens things up for others. LETS GO MAGIC!!!!!!!!

  3. GreatWhiteNurse

    Coach of the year with the right rotation decisions as the game progressed. Not giving Caleb anymore time after his first 2.5 quarters of horrible play, bringing back in Fultz/WCJ/JI despite their minute restrictions, and letting Chuma ride it out since he was balling tonight. Respect to Mose decisions tonight when rotations have been his biggest weakness as a coach, IMO.

  4. KamikazeeDolphin

    WAIT WE FUCKING WON?

    FUCK YES.

    I cant wait to see the final quarter, too busy laughing at the Steelers downfall lmao.

    Fuck the bum ass Knicks though, can’t wait to browse their sub for the PGT meltdown

  5. Lonniehands1

    Hopefully this was all WCJ needed to get back on track. With Franz out, it would be nice if we could consistently rely on him more for scoring.

    Very impressive closing out the game like we did on the road and in the Garden.

  6. Was nice to see markelle take over the penetration late, gave Paolo a break

  7. thewrongnotes

    All the smug I TOLD YOU SOs in this thread like Fultz, Isaac, and WCJ aren’t all chronically injured.

    They’re all very good (or in JI’s case, elite) players, but that’s no use to us if they’re only occasionally available.

  8. GoApeShirt

    Mosely quit playing around today. He went with his best lineup. Franz Boogie’s return is going to make this squad a good team.

  9. Used_Artichoke231

    This team is just a nudge away from being good. I am so tired of waiting-can we please use the trade deadline and a bunch of future picks to get Paolo some help, as in shooters? Pretty please?

  10. Knicks scored 6 points in last 7 1/2 minutes. That’s lockdown defense.

  11. illicitRazor

    some of the cope on the knicks board is great, like talking about how they’d sweep us in the playoffs and how we’re the same tier as the pistons and wizards 😀 love to see it

  12. Amazing what happens when we have guys back who can play. Need Franz back asap.

  13. Loose-Animal7305

    Awesome team win, Chuma stepped up big time and was raining 3s (4) all over the Garden, Fultz had a nice breakaway slam and also provided crucial playmaking down the stretch on his way to 7 assists. WCJ with 17 pts, and even Joe was a maestro out there with 4 dimes, nothing not to like here

  14. How about Chuma man? Maybe we shouldn’t trade him after all? He’s making 3s and playing good defense.

  15. NikThaGreat9

    Really positive stuff at the end there. Obviously the defense, Cole started attacking the rim again instead of settling for jumpers, Kelle/Dell/Isaac came back with a vengeance, and Paolo activated the Jimmy Buckets gene after a poor game. Love how the final 2 minutes hit and he clamped up Randle and hit those 2 jumpers. That’s my all-star. Once the playoffs hit this MF is going to hit another level just like Jimmy does IMO. And all this happened with two of our better shooters missing 10+ wide open threes. We’re gonna be alright.

  16. Milla4Prez66

    Good to see lock down defense at the end to get a win while the offense continues to sputter. Not the prettiest win, but things have gotten kind of rough lately so any win is a good win right now.

  17. stinx2001

    Wtf. Aussie here, our games usually start at 11am. Just opened the app and see a win. Good times.

  18. Effective_Owl_17

    Houstan needs to breathe, feel like it’s all mental with him. You can tell the motion is super clean that he’s refined it. It just misses. He’s gotta figure it out though…

  19. FLman42069

    The fact we’re pulling out wins against good teams with this squad is amazing lol

  20. Pappieric

    Love these early games as an Aussie, can stay up and watch as a night shifter

    Awesome win with a depleted squad, that dunk from kelle was sick
