Fox can get his shot whenever he wants. This team has had so many lapses where they just go cold and can’t generate any good looks. No more. 

This is going to be fun. 

Mid range dribble pull up on tap, it's fucking beautiful.

Dumb challenge by Atlanta. Cost them their last timeout where they could have advanced the ball.

Nice debut from Fox. You can tell Wemby is still ill but he gutted it out. 

I didn’t like it that they pulled Castle after he screwed up the switch. Much rather have him finishing out the game on Young than Sochan. But whatever. GSG.

CP was kind of huge. 9 dimes 1 turnover - big steal on Trae and 2 big 3s in the 4Q.

The thing about getting a guy like Fox is that yeah you get a starter that goes 37 mins like he did tonight - but that's also 37 less minutes replacement level guys have to play. 

Champagne, KJ and Barnes combined for 70 minutes tonight - instead of those 3 plus Tre Jones playing 107 total (that's not a perfect example but you get the point).

Shit like that matters in the NBA where everything swings at the fringes. You have a guy shoot .390 from 3 on the season instead of .360 you may win 2-3 more games. 

We aren't a finished product - there are still moves to be made and the head coach thing is still less than optimal but getting Fox was a huge step in the right direction. 

GSG.

I watched Keldon on defense tonight and was shocked at how he consistently loses his man. How can you be this bad? He also went 1 on 3 which was impressive. He did not make it.

In my brothers + dad group text I made the point that maybe we haven't moved him yet because no one wants him.

Saw a clip of Fox' post-game interview on SC. Had no idea he spoke like that. I'm not exactly as plugged into the league as I was 10 years ago. 

Also saw the pregame quote where he mentioned that winning tonight also improves the pick we own. 

Of course we traded for this guy.
