    Parsons got his revenge. This is not the character of this team. We'll bounce back. Big game tomorrow.

    I saw the debacle. At the 10 minute mark in the 4th on down to the OT the lineup with Blake Mccollum and Kaman had absurdity written all over it. Right before OT Dame loses the ball and then when we have 20 seconds to win Dame fires a three without any other options. You just shot yourself into the foot by eliminating odds and giving the Mavs their chance to win percentage. I have to blame Stotts for the lineup and play selections. TWENTY FOUR turnovers equals a LOSS. Just Bad....... Make the team ride the economy seats to the next game

    so what are we against .500 or better in the west? Like 5 and 16? Playoffs teams will be feasting if they see they get us.

    0-8 for Batum.

    I haven't looked in a while but does this loss put the Blazers below .500 against playoff teams?

    We're good. Lopez and CJ playing well. Lillard's out of his slump. Tomorrow is a huge game to bounce back with. Splitting the trip would be great. Then beat Lakers and take a week off. We're good.

    And the scapegoat hunt begins...we just let one get away. Good news, CJ played well and Dame found his 3pt shot

    The only positive to take from this game is Damian finally hit a 3. But other than that, the team is no longer a contender for anything this year. Barring a drastic change in their play, they're going fishing earlier this year than last.

    Bullshit. We had lost 7 of 10 and blew an 11 point lead with 2:30 left. This is a disaster no way to argue otherwise.

    Where to begin with this one?

    The turnovers. The horribly ran fast breaks. The terrible pick and roll defense. But what stung the worst was our execution down the stretch. When you're up NINE with under two minutes to play, you FUCKING run the clock. I still can't believe Wes tried that layup with over 20 seconds left on the shot clock. Yes, the officiating was terrible, but we gave them the fucking game. It was like I was watching Game 7 all over again.

    This is getting so bad they might just say fuck it and not bring in any help at the deadline since it won't be worth it.

    What an epic meltdown. Just like the nearly impossible comeback we had vs OKC earlier. 6 turnovers in the first 4 minutes of the 4th. Then they quick shot 3 shots in a row and missed. The sad thing is, they played well enough on one hand to have an easy victory, but the turnovers, the bad calls, and the epic meltdown in the 4th did them in. I wish I could get those 3 hours of my life back.

    And what was the deal with letting the PG guard Nowitski? No adjustments to that.
