    Well, I have seen him succeed against Portland's little guys for several years now. I guess I'm lucky I had to take a CPR class tonight and didn't see it this time.

    Most games you're wondering "Which scrub is going to go off on us tonight?" Some teams have figured out the way to beat us is to play ALL their scrubs at once.

    It's not our fault those teams suck at tanking.

    how the hell did we lose this game? Still in disbelief.

    You play around the first three quarters and don't show that intensity on defense, and expect to flip a switch in the fourth? Thought we learned our lesson against MEM.

    Only consolation is OKC and San Antonio also lost "winnable" games. Winner of the night was Utah who moved into fourth place tie.

    And the A's lost to the Rangers (they call themselves Texas Rangers but are Dallas). Double whammy. Life sucks.

    Well Dallas shot a high % from three.
    We've seen Portland lose time and time again when they allow opponents to shoot well from deep.
    So nothing new there.

    I will say though. Nards is starting to look like a rotational player.
    I've said the whole year he has looked better.
    I don't know if it's playing against Nurk in practice or coaching. But Nards doesn't look awful.
