    CP3 is the biggest fake tough guy. Remember when Pau gave him that tap on the head(a sign of affection throughout European Futbol) and little Chris got all bent out of shape? He and Booker are perfect for each other. They are the Polar Opposites of the Kobe/Ron Ron pairing.

    So was coming by pleasure with the teams when we’d get pissed off because we won an unexpected game down the stretch in the “tank” years….. all in the hopes maybe one day we could compete for a ring again.

    I think he is the reason they struggle. That whole draft is full of mental midgets / head cases:

    1. KAT
    2. Russel
    3. Booker
    4. Okafor
    5. Porzingis
    6. WCS
    7. Portis

    Is there a starter worse than Bev in the entire league? Serious question.

    well Pat Bev is kind of a net zero guy

    Westbrook was a net negative for sure. But at least now he's not starting.

    And he’s a guard, so he must be good, right? You know, because it’s a “guard’s League.”

    My WMC: the Spurs were dressed in garish, retina destroying turquoise jerseys, and we still had the uglier uniforms. Can they please call a mulligan and retire these Sacramento a** schmattas already?

    Their floor design they had was just as bad- designed by a 6 year old.

    Yah, Spurs were always white or black themed, but like most teams have now added more varieties. But these seem to be THE main color scheme judging from the floor colors. Weird choice to move to.

    My complaint: that was an awful game to the eyes. The jerseys, the offense for both teams, a lot of bad defense all around, the turnovers. It was reeaaally sloppy for much of the evening.

    That said I'll take an ugly W over a pretty L any night (but that belongs in the optimism thread).

    Just a warning, it's about to get really rough. Our December schedule is a killer.

    Start the month on a 6 game East coast trip. We have 3 back to back sets in the month. Close the month out on another east cost (+ dal) roadie for 5 games that that extends into Jan.

    We've struggled against +.500 teams and that's about to be nearly all we're seeing in the immediate future.

    I think realistically going into Dec 15th (trade day), we win 3 of the next 9. December 15th at 12:01 AM we better see some f***ing action before this thing slips away.

    Yeah. Schedule gets brutal. Hoping we can get a deal done before January.

    I wish we could just play the Spurs for the rest of the season.
