Not good with no games.

Thompson played like shit in the rising star game. Glad he took it seriously because some other guys on his team didn’t. They lost by 1 in rising star game to G. League all stars. 40-39.: first to 40. Thompsons team missed at least 4 or 5 free throws that cost them the win. Including our Thompson missing at least 3 maybe 4 free throws.
Any one of those misses and his team wins. I may be a tad harsh but this game should not have been close. So damn lazy.

And with score 39-37 first to 40 wins G league coach calls a timeout and everyone knows they are going for a three and a the win one of the Thompson twins falls for a fake as shot clock was expiring. Just terrible defense. And after missing their last 8 threes the G league wins at the buzzer. If they were playing for the win they should have fouled and gave them 2 shots or at least not fall for the damn fake.

Not sure why this loss bugs me. Just like the Milwaukee loss when holland missed 2 ft for a damn win. At least I care about the pistons now lol.

It's fkn Rising Star game, lol. It means as little as a Spring Training game. Maybe less. You need to channel your frustration to things that matter.

I read that Thompson missed 4 straight free throws when they had 39 points. Basically, choking 4 times when just making a single free throw wins the game.

I guess Wemby has a clot. Will miss rest of season.
