    * So is LMA.
    * Sergio's making the All-Star game.
    * Rudy wins the slam dunk contest!
    * Oden's going to be inducted in the Hall of Fame next month.
    * Outlaw is 6th Man of the Year!

    Shit . . . I'm feeling down again. We only won ONE game tonight? A really good team would've won TWO.

    "Oh no, we suck again!"

    Don't forget that:

    * Kevin Pritchard is a trading room genius who will now, for his next trick, trade Raef LaFrentz's expiring contract for Chris Paul, Gerald Wallace, and three 2nd round picks.

    That's a real reach because we don't have enough room on the roster for those guys PLUS 3 second round picks. The trade is going to be Raef for LeBronze straight up.

    Fook yeah!!!

    But either way, after tonight's game, I TOTALLY see us winning 66 games this year!!!

    Why aren't more people buying tickets for my 66 wins bandwagon??? Am I being unrealistic with 66??? Come on! We won! And our #1 pick Hall of Fame rookie center just set career highs in both points and rebounds!!!

    I have a feeling that ESPN is going to put us at #1 in their Power Rankings tomorrow, which will cement our status as greatest team ever!

    You can't talk about next year. I'd like to keep it where most of us fans understand (i.e. here and now)! Forget building a franchise, forget potential dynasties, forget about next year. I want Oden, Roy, LMA, Rudy and Bayless to play 48mins/game so we can win the championship THIS YEAR!!! They can retire next summer when all their knees give out but we need that title THIS YEAR or the season (and franchise) is lost forever!!!

    Who cares - we'll sweep whatever team dares to step on the court with us. We're THAT good.

    I wouldn't go that far. I'm still not sure that team has the mental toughness to go the distance. Howard is great, but Hedo and Shard are far from playoff killers. Maybe Jameer will step up in the postseason. Still, I'm leaning more towards the Celtics or the Cavs from the east.

    Sweet . . . my assertions about the number of Mixum's negative posts after this win are correct . . . which means that the rest must be true too!

    WE OWN THE NBA!!!

    It's time for some sobering yin to balance out yennie's raging yang...

    We lost . . . so:

    * we're finishing dead last in the West this year.
    * we will be swept by LeBron and the Cavs in our season series. We will also be swept by the Browns.
    * Roy will be snubbed by fans and coaches alike, missing the All-Star game entirely. He is clearly not a Superstarâ„¢. He will be mocked by the sports pundits repeatedly.
    * So will LMA.
    * Sergio will get scurvy. He will also inexplicably pass it on to the entire team.
    * Rudy will break both of his thumbs in the dunk contest.
    * Oden's going to be inducted into the AARP next month.
    * Outlaw is 10th Man of the Year.
    * Nate defects to the Lakers, where he helps them to the championship as an assistant to Phil.
    * Batum/Oden/Bayless/Rudy are co-co-co-co-completely shut out of the entire remainder of the season. Not a single point for any of them. They are all worthless.

    Fuck, you are so right.

    We soooo fucking suck.

    I hate this team. I could put together a team better than this with just the guys I know at work.

    Man, this whole season is so depressing.

    I want to kill myself.
