    Starters all had a negative +/-. Other than Huertas, the bench had 5 players in double digit +/- (4 of them in the 20s).

    WMC: I love the improvements with this team, I love the direction we seem to be headed in, and yet all the while there is Phil Jackson looming with a 2017 opt-out with the Knicks, ready to come in and disrupt and ruin it all. He suuuucks with the Knicks, he gets in the way of his head coach, has to have his guy Rambis always close to the situation, and he probably alienated a lot of NBA stars with his out of touch comments about LeBron and his "posse". Stay away Phil, please. Thanks for the titles, but this is a new day, stay away.

    Definitely do not want him back. Why? Greatest of young personable coaches and the similar young age son of Jerry West groomed his whole life and raised in the organization to take over as GM after Mitch, like Jerry groomed Mitch to take over after him. Phil's in his early 70's already and would change that whole dynamic. We don't need Phil to pull FAs as we have Luke now. Everyone in the league is hearing and taking notes from Warriors' comments and on how the Lakers have turned their culture around completely. Already. Will be a terrific recruiter.

    Oh god no, just please no. We got the stench of 5 years of awful coaching behind us and we have a good young core. I don't want Phil back in any way, shape, or form.

    I'm genuinely pissed at Phil Jackson these days. He made me do the unthinkable, take LeBron's side on something and feel sympathy for him. Phil's comments were incredibly dismissive, disrespectful, and out of touch regarding what LeBron's friends have built from initially being laughed at when they started out to being incredibly legit businessmen now.

    4 games in 5 nights on the road...

    I thought the schedule is getting easier but I was wrong.

    @Pelicans (we should win, but they have recovered from the early struggles and we are missing players)
    @Bulls (probably a loss, second night of a b2b)
    @Raptors (probably a loss)
    @Grizzlies (probably a loss because 4th game in 5 nights with lots of travelling miles)

    Right now my expectations are 1-3, hoping we have one win.

    Man, we could really use one of our two best players (Russell or Randle) right about now.

    My take with this team is to just have LOW expectations and they will surprise you. :Waltonfingerwave:

    i think NO is a loss. can't explain why, just a feeling. they've been playing better ball, and holiday really changes that team.

    best shots at wins are in chicago--they've had some odd letdowns thus far--and memphis, now that conley is out. i give almost zero chance at tor.

    Well that was a clunker. Seems like they couldn't buy a basket when they needed one, and pretty much man handled by AD all night long.

    Such a shame that the injury bug is hitting us so hard early one.

    Yeah. As long as the young guys come back healthy it could be good in the long run. Different units, lots of experience for everyone. But it's not our best product on the floor.

    Tough time in the Big Easy. Man, that didn't look good for Nick at all. I hope it's only minor but any time you hear Achilles it's a concern.
