    I fully believe that if we get into the playoffs and somehow manage to advance to the second round but get swept, we'll see threads lamenting why this team is a mirage and how we should expect to fall apart and be out of the playoffs in 2010.

    God help us all, if KP actually trades for an upgrade at the wing or point guard and it doesn't get us into the WCF, we'll never hear the end of it.

    That is sorta like counting chickens backward or something like that.

    I thought Batum was Udoke's younger clone but without the consistency on that corner 3?

    Batum has to be the luckiest player of all time. I like him... like a kid... but he is only asked to pass the ball like a hot potato and bonk a three every now and then. He does have long arms on D and sneaks a block and steal in every now and then... but he also gets burned a lot. If he was on another team he might not have played a minute.

    OK, I got 52. And in honor of the GSW game coming up - I even put them all on the moped. And I am throwing in some ducks too, just because.

    tonight will be the kind of game where you see why we cant go forward with him as a starter...tonight's game you will need 18 + from your starting SF. he simply cant score under 8 and give us a chance. some teams like GS, okc, indi, etc.... even though they suck... they score and if you go cold for a while.. you are in trouble. these are also teams that always play us well and beat us. if you wanna make the playoffs... we need to beat bad teams.

    We have a better record against below .500 team than all of the other Western Conference playoff teams except for Denver.
