    It would be nice to keep second place but really impossible with the schedule

    Luka and Austin crying for fouls .. Try to make the shot first . They should be embarrassed. Got 41 from Gabe and Jordan and couldn't beat the Nets

    jeezus!! like the play against the Pels when Olynyk just stuck his fat foot out in front of Luka and held it there to trip him ... and no call.

    We’re down bodies, but let’s be real, we’re not even playing well with who’s on the floor. Like at all…

    I realistically thought we’d go 2-2 on this 4 game rodeo. Didn’t think we’d go 0-4, which is for sure what it’s about to be tomorrow.

    I don’t care if Rui, Hayes, LeBron aren’t out there. We seriously look like we don’t belong more than half the time, and just don’t know what we’re doing.

    LBJ is clearly that difference maker on both ends.

    Just effing beat the Suns at home on Sunday, PLEASE. For my own health, and I’m sure some others’ health on here too.

    I predicted 0-7 including loss to Brooklyn after hearing about all injuries
    So not surprised at all.

    The injuries are killing us right now. We need either Rui or Hayes or both back like yesterday. I get that Lebron is out for at least a couple weeks.

    This is all about the injuries. You’re not going to be competitive when you have so many key players out. Hopefully we get some of our key guys back soon.

    It gets tiring that some players are just allowed to do whatever they want. Like this, and pretty much everything Draymond does

    Jokic had to blatantly foul for them to beat this version of the Lakers

    Murray always makes these when playing us. Overpaid fake star.

    WMC..... NONE.

    There was no reason for this team to be in that game at all. Denver had their full squad and we missed 4 of our starters. These guys busted their a**es and could of def won. I'm not worried how far we drop right now (maybe not play-in) because this team is dangerous when full(ish).

    Disappointed we lost cause F Denver but that was a good game by our back up team

    I guess there are a lot of NBA games in March because the league wants to avoid the NFL schedule as much as possible but it would make more sense to play less in March for teams to start adapting and playing at a playoffs like rhythm .

    Another 6 games in 9 days strech begins against Chicago .. Can't get more stupid than this

    The NBA does not care about the quality of its product
