    And I’ll repeat myself. This is why I want us to avoid the play in if we can. We could’ve easily lost tonight at the hands of Olynyk and Damon Jones. All it takes is for someone to get hot while we go cold.

    we need to go all out the rest of the way and maintain a spot in the top 6.

    WMC: Whatever stole the brains of the players to end the 4th qtr. That was a painful display.

    Who thought it would be a good idea to take a nap in the second half? Forcing us to play an OT game against former Lakers and 10 day contract'ers when we play tomorrow AND we're a team full of guys who don't like playing in back to backs.

    yeah, we needed another useful center basically all year, but we keep swider (useless, imo, not an nba player) and pippen (i'll be shocked if he is). huff is an nba player at a position of need.

    Preemptive wmc: Russ turns into Steph curry and kawhi turns into godmode Kobe, hitting impossible contested jumpers.

    sheesh, how many times do we need to see Gabriel get cooked by average centers like Zubac to sign a rim protector at least until Bamba is back?
