Every time I see "Mitch" in a post, I think you guys are talking to/about me. It's taking some getting used to.
Fun game last night. Definitely a tough loss with mostly self-inflicted wounds at crunch time, but you have to give credit to Maxey and Yabusele. Those two were great for Philly. I'm glad we only see Maxey twice a year. He's murdered us every time we've played them. Lots of missed wide open threes all game, but that 18-2 3rd quarter run was a killer. Vic is getting much better at punishing those small ball lineups setting up shop at the nail, but he's still got a ways to go.
Castle was so good last night. He deserved 4th quarter minutes. The pairing with he and Sochan is definitely problematic from a spacing perspective, but it would be nice to have their two best defenders on the court together.
How they fare from here to the end of January is going to tell us about the rest of the season, if they are a legitimate play-in/playoff team. Lots of road games and lots of games against good teams. Brooklyn is the only outright tanker of the bunch.
