Feels like we haven't had a 4th this good all year.

Absolutely love the intensity, why can't we play like that all the time?

Why do we always leave the shooter in the corner open? It makes no sense. Just because it didn't hurt us there doesn't mean it's acceptable. That's a big part of why we got smacked around for 3 quarters.

Yeah, this place should have been Loud a lot more this year!

It’s really hard to get loud when they’re playing slow, lazy and bad.

A comeback is easy to rally behind, even if it’s a team we should have blown the doors off.

We have gotten those looks all season and have not had the success that pundits said we would.

They have been doing it all season.

Sometimes they switch everything, sometimes they don't. Individual 1 on 1 defense has been bad, but when they switch everything is fluid.

Ordinarily this is where opponents put the Suns away but the Wizards are missing.

It looked like Booker was talking to Gordon about what play to run.
