Could this be a rehearsal for the playoff quarter final ?

Tough for Eagles certainly - Kimble was the difference

Or in other words, if bashing your head against a brick wall ain’t working try something else.

I get the feeling Ian has picked up Fab’s unfortunate tendency in his last couple of seasons to stick with Plan A when it obviously isn’t working, and yet again we’re running out of momentum approaching the playoffs. For me the best thing this season has been the home commentaries - Jeff’s information and Dave’s insights rival our backcourt duo as the best in the league - sure missed them last night !

My takeaway from last night was to wrap Darius Defoe up in cotton wool until the playoffs so I hope he doesn’t play tomorrow. Without Darius playing 25-30 mins in the playoffs Eagles have zero defence and therefore zero chance. Maxwell has a nice offensive game, despite recent performances, but good teams have worked out his defensive limitations.

Head in the sand time, fletch/Cortez and Justin Gordon must be getting frustrated with the situation

A team can’t just be so reliant on 1 player for some defence tho, everybody needs to step up more especially as we only seem to use 6/7 players Max these days for whatever reason, wonder if uncle Jeff knows anymore about that? 🤓

I think Wolves deserves to win . A lot of players 'clicked'at the same time and I thought they played some great team basketball.
