    I agree with this which is why I said how LA goes so does the rest of the team. He wasn't there from the first minute last night. Just real passive.

    I'd be happy to meet them in the playoffs, it would mean that we've made it to the 2nd round or WCFs. To get that far would mean a hell of a successful ride even if we didn't beat them.

    1 vs 8
    2 vs 7
    3 vs 6
    4 vs 5

    If we were 6th and the Suns 8th we would meet them in the WFC. If we make it that far we would have home court advantage. We would win the series.

    We went zone in the 4th quarter @ Miami a few weeks ago. It worked well that night - came back from 17 down to tie the game. Lebron's game winning bucket we were back in man to man. Last year we played more zone, but it's been rare this year.

    The experts can deny it all they want but this is the sad truth. Sure the game is in your hands ultimately, but momentum is everything in basketball. It's a game of swings and the Officials hold the keys to the chain.

    Momentum and confidence are huge green fucking traveled when he did his allyoop to himself. Allowing him to get away with it gave him confidence and phx momentum. They called the 2 least obvious travels last night and let pheonix get away with 4 blatant ones that were unexcusable.

    I agree with those who considered this a very disappointing performance, and without much fight; especially on the part of Lillard and Aldridge on defense. They have been saying they are going to play all these last games like they are playoff games; this doesn't give much hope.

    I'm sure Dame and LA are even more disappointed in the loss than fans are. Of course they want to play well and win these games. They just won 4 in a row before this loss. Shit happens.
