    Just gave up 130 in regulation at home. This team is a real bummer right now.

    Who cares what they're record was before that? They got Jrue Holiday back and they're not a 2-10 type team. Beating them in their building was obviously going to be tough.

    We'll figure things out. Especially when Aminu gets back. Good news is Turner has found his groove. That will be huge when we have a healthy team.

    Allowed 130 points and Harden was barely trying. At some point we have to accept that there are personnel issues and it starts with the coach.

    Turnover Lillard. What'd he have? 6? 7?

    Agreed. We'll be better when Aminu is back.

    He had 7. Obviously a tribute to Brandon Roy.

    How can people say some of us are being too negative? I'm still here watching every game hoping they pull it together but it's the same story every time. The offense is fine. The defense and lack of effort I have seen on defense is pathetic. There is a reason why a few games back dame said we suck. Because they do right now. Nobody is saying they still can't turn it around but what am I supposed to believe in? I have watched every game all the way through, even the blowouts and all of a sudden some of us are too negative? Lol. Okay then. Don't talk about the problem guys just sip this kingspeed kool aid

    Any theories as to why Meyers didn't play in second half? He has played huge in our last two victories.

    I know deep down you are positive too. Otherwise, why would you watch the games? You believe they can turn it around.

    Of course but I'm not gonna be like "don't worry guys, it's all good". I'm gonna say we suck right now which we do. My team sucks until they prove otherwise

    Cippy, here's some truth: when we had Aminu, we got off to big leads EVERY SINGLE GAME and then Turner blew it. Now Turner is getting more comfortable. When Aminu gets back, we'll get big leads and Turner will maintain them. No joke. If Aminu isn't crucial to our success, why sign him, why play him? We need Aminu back. Now.

    I think what makes it worse watching this horrible team, is the new commentators. They're not bad, but I've been feeling nostalgic and watching random old blazer clips on YouTube and god do I miss mike & mike. The games aren't even fun to watch anymore.
