    Whats the point of having high expectations now, since you thought were going to be dog shit a couple weeks ago?

    Wasn't just our worst quarter of the year. It was possibly the worst quarter in franchise history.

    I'm kind of glad this happened. I want to see how they react to shooting themselves in the foot and see what they can do tomorrow night. It could be pretty telling. We're gonna have games like this. Don't get too high on wins, not too low on losses. (I'm not saying that to you personally. Just saying it.)

    Had the audacity to question why the refs didn't call either of the players fouling him on a dunk attempt, got 2 technicals and tossed. It was just the latest in a string of shitty calls and non-calls that sent us over the edge and got Detroit going. Then we fell apart and handed it to them.

    That's not how it works. He played 36 minutes.

    I'd like to see some comparable quarters to this, if it's possible.

    Complained about a no call.

    Exactly.

    I'm sorry this was bad, but this meltdown will never be as bad as the Lakers/Blazers game 7 in the Western Conference finals. Nothing.

    He had to say something very egregious to get back to back technicals.

    Maybe since it's so close to thanksgiving, Davis said "GOBBLE GOBBLE" to John Goble and it hit a nerve from when people did that to him as a kid.

    Something like that.

    He reminded the refs that he used to be a Laker...

    It must be tough for him, seeing how unfairly we are treated by the refs after playing for the most coddled team in the league.
