    Wonder if OX has knowledge of this fine local organization? And they like wine.

    The thought makes me optimistic for 2020 and our chances for a ring. Just give us health Baby.

    Sensational first half last night. The second half not so much.

    Just FYI cause I was curious and looked it up, nba team record for blocked shots in a game is 24 by the raptors in 2001. We had 20 tonight.

    We're 29-7 and 4 games ahead of the next best team in the west and we still have room to get better.

    I forgot how it was to be a top team - so much less stressful.

    In Caruso's wildest dreams coming out of college he never dreamed he would ever have photos like these above and fame in the national media like he has this year. Whatever he does the rest of his career he we always have memories of at least this season and the great pics of him playing with 2 of the all time great players in the game. (Granting AD health) Hell 2 Hall of Famers with Dwight included in these two photos above ..... both AMPED for him throwing down at the rim.

    That was a great road win tonight against a playoff bound Mavs. 79 points in the first half was off the hook.

    i don't understand it, but i think there's some stat that says (contrary to popular opinion, and, admittedly, some common sense) that teams who beat the crap out of bad teams actually do well in the playoffs. can't remember where i read that...just that it surprised me.
