    lol the only team on the list that's not actively trying to lose this season.

    the silver lining-we have a big enough lead on them that if NO decides to take our pick this year, it's unlikely to be higher than 7 or 8.

    btw, utah is 1/2 game back of us. after today, we're in 12th.

    :SadPau2: …. Meh while to outsiders this is certainly not ideal and constant fun is made of it and shots taken (myself included) …. Jeanie is a smart person and has literally been doing business with Linda for over 40 years. And while Kurt was a journeyman player that’s no big knock on him or even failure as a head coach in MN and NY where lots of factors including personnel were in play. He won 24 and lost 13 in his short Lakers stint. And husband of his girl friend’s business associate and trusted confidante or not …. Phil Jackson didn’t suffer fools with HIS ego and trusted his basketball knowledge “enough” to have the long association he had with him.

    only reason they were able to beat the suns a bunch of times in a row earlier in the season was because one of booker or beal was out

    f***ing embarrasing. Knew when Cam didn't play defense would go to s*** but what was that on offensive?

    no lebron postups, no AD postups: just a total we don't give a rat's a** to even show up type of performance from the coach and players

    Also these injuries just blow. Right when I finally like the rotations Cam goes down and Wood gets a migraine. And boom all the good vibes gone

    Don't worry too much. They will be again. Or Durant.

    or they're trying to use it to leverage a lavine deal and resurrect their three star bs.

    Our defense completely hanging on a couple of guys is just sad.

    :LLLLLebronlaughing:

    Because of course.

    Easy wins on the schedule turn into game 7s because garbage teams are playing the best ball of their season

    if both teams play as they have been, we're going to lose by 30.

    Jazz aren't that bad. They got off to a bad start, but they're a respectable team, IMO. Wouldn't call them garbage.

    Pistons, Washington, Charlotte, yes. Utah? Naw, IMO.
