Hooksy was strong over the ball all night. He, Big Jim and Big Joey are starting to cause coaches a lot of headaches.

And his aggression at the man and ball he had a great game. Hard to see Leueny getting back in at this rate.
Hooksy kicks the goal from beyond the arc. Never in doubt.

Carlisle is not happy with that.
Asks Zaka if he can come back.

Happy days.
High fiving fans on the boundary.
