    Hopefully black Bart doesn't light us up from 3.

    Today and tomorrow need to be victories; we need to win these types of games. They're very important; additionally, it will be our first 3 game winning streak of the season heading into the Portland game...

    Saw Houston and SA play later, and this showed up on ESPN for players to watch.

    James Harden
    HOU - PG
    26.6 PPG, 5.4 RPG, 7.7 APG

    DeMar DeRozan
    SA - SG
    26.4 PPG, 6.4 RPG, 6.8 APG

    Thunder started 0-4, and have since reeled off 7 straight victories

    And the Kawhi led Raptors are 12-1, and in their latest victory against the Knicks, no starter played more than 28 min. Kawhi was at 23. Thinking they are legit. Will be interesting to see if anyone mounts a challenge since Boston has been off their game to start the year.

    Pot farms are on fire. Javale had the munchies and a legit reason for failing his next drug test.

    If we win tonight we may finally be able to create some real momentum and build confidence which could be vital for the youngns! I think it’s reasonable to expect consistently improved play from all of them soon-ish, except maybe Hart.

    I haven't been able to be active on here like I want to, but I've caught a couple games. I think we're finding our stride. It's still a long season but the chemistry between LeBron and our other guys are getting better and better and it's working.

    in a few months or when the year is over we're not going to remember how bad we played in this game in that 1st half or how we led by 15 points and our 2nd unit let them back in the game.

    Like you said, all we're see in the schedule is a W. And thank goodness for that.
