    You heard it here first. We're on track to go 41-41. I guess Bill Simmons was right. :sigh:

    If I project out a 1-1 record, then 41-41 is the most likely outcome. :ghoti:

    We're going to stay at 1-1 because in case you didn't hear the season is over. Done. Finished.

    It is kind of funny to read that. We're only 1-1, but seems like we're much worse. And Denver was celebrating like they'd just clinched a playoff spot.

    This could be a long season...

    To me it seems like we're just trying to figure out how new, returning, and improved pieces fit together and how many an old one shouldn't fit in at all any more.

    I don't think we're much worse at all, to be honest, because right now we're pretty discombobulated and dysfunctional but we're still owning up to our strength of rebounding which is a good sign. Once we learn that we can't just depend on jump shots and pick and pops I'm hoping we'll reincorporate on a consistent basis the long missing pick and roll that goes to the roller for some easy points in the paint.

    I agree. It just seems worse with all the "season over" stuff that's being written on here. I think we'll get it back together in Houston.

    I'm beginning to wish we pulled that deal for Aldridge & co. for Amare. Aldridge is just like Outlaw. Inconsistent at the free throw line, and relies on his jumper far too much when he's capable of much more.

    I knew you were joking with this thread. I was just referring to a few select others.

    You think we're destined for mediocrity? Just think of those poor 0-2 Cleveland fans. They're on a pace to go 0-82 this year!

    So I guess Miami, Washington and Toronto are on pace for 82-0?

    I would like to think I do, but I was at the game.:sigh: Rudy and Martell looked good. We so much lack an inside game though.......................

    I just dont understand how you can not develop an inside game with, Oden and LMA. it boggles my mind.

    Leave your stepping stones behind, something calls for you.
    Forget the dead you've left, they will not follow you.
    The vagabond who's rapping at your door
    Is standing in the clothes that you once wore.
    Strike another match, go start anew
    And it's all over now, Baby Blue.
