That's not deflection that's facts. You don't seem to be able to make a coherent point about anything. Just a bunch of noise...they were champions!! Duh...everybody on the team was a Champion
You should change your name to SlickDeflection. But it's not really too Slick. Kinda like calling a guy who's 6'8" Tiny.
OK...I'm bored....explain yourself..what exactly was the deflection? "They were champions like Westbrook will never be"? What kind of point was being made by that silly statement? Every single player on that team is a champion aren't they?
I usually don't say this about the opponent, but the Hornets did not deserve to win that game. They nearly gave away the game several times down the stretch. Whether it be a stupid tech from Bridges or the entire team looking scared outside of Ish freakin' Smith. WB, Reaves and Bazemore played well enough to deserve that win. The team played excellent defense in the 2nd half and didn't turn the ball over. I was watching the ESPN replay and Hubie Brown said it best: "make your free throws and you win this thing". Dwight Howard would have probably made a free throw or two. DeAndre Jordan is on the short list of my most hated players ever.
DJ has been finished a while. He's suppose to be John Salley 2000 for this team. But, who else could fill the void? Very little NBA caliber players who are productive out there.
Wish they won those winnable games at home in the first 2 months of the year. They have no cushion now to deal with all these losses and injuries that come during the dog days and road trips. Gonna be a uphill battle the rest of the way to stay within the top 10 for the play in tournament. Lakers are 3-7 in the last 10 games
There are no moral victories 50 games in and under .500. Comebacks are nice, but they don’t matter in the end when they’re just Ls on the schedule. We’re just lucky all the teams below us suuuuuuck so we aren’t likely to fall below 9th, 10th at worst.
yeah, there's a clear bottom 5 in the west, so the question is becoming which play-in spot is ours, 7-10. we're starting to lose ground on dallas/denver for the 5/6. also, we're bad and unlikely to gain ground on anyone.
