    That doesn't make sense. If we give up 60, we're bad. If we give up 45, we're bad because we're not consistently good? How about we're good because we give up 45 and we're good because we're not consistently bad? If you're gonna trash the team when they play badly, you have to praise the team when they play well. By the way, there are no consistently good teams in the NBA except maybe GS and they got blown out in Denver tonight and blew a 19 point fourth quarter lead at home against Memphis last month. I guess GS sucks too.

    Barkley is wrong here. This team has no talent, dame and cj need help, that's the point. They have to shoot it. They aren't trying to get their own. Cj and dame have no help. Kenny smith gets it though.

    Still doesn't make sense. When they play well, they suck because they usually don't play well? Doesn't make sense why you don't praise them when they play well.

    These guys haven't been watching the team this year. Can't blame them really.

    That doesn't make sense either. Because GS has been consistently good with a game here or there of bad... where we suck for most of the games and have a good game here and there.

    I mean, you can try to argue it, but you dont have more games of 45 point halftimes with a 105 ppg against average.

    Also, I never said they were BAD because they gave up 45, I said they are inconsistent because I look at more than 1 half of play at a time.

    Go ahead though, put more words in my mouth. Fox news can do it, I guess it's okay, right?

    Valiant effort.

    We're playing well tonight. And we've actually been consistently competitive for the last 10-11 games. Either we've blown out the opponent or it's a close game and we win half the time.

    A live game is all about cheering and swagger.....in between games folks can analyze the shit out of the game but wait till the buzzer rings at least...I appreciate Kingspeeds efforts to cheer the team during games...!

    Shaq really thinks he was the greatest center of all time. He really thinks he probably could of been out there as a 50 percent three point shooter or some shit. This dude...

    We're 5-6 in our last 11.

    Not half the time.

    Edit: To make it an even dozen, we're 5-7.

    5-5 in our last 10. It's impossible to go 5.5 out of 11.

    Barkley still thinks you can't win a championship with jump shooters, even though golden state is probably one the greatest teams of all time. He's an idiot stuck in the past.

    As for the Blazers specifically, I doubt he's ever watched a game, even the ones on TNT.

    Shaq isn't even worth mentioning.
