    They're in (a) good position alright. Probably not the one you were thinking of, though.

    Did Nic sleep with your imaginary girlfriend, or something?

    A string of first round exits, was "magic?" Yeesh, expectations are low around here.

    Batum played 19 minutes in the first half.

    Moronic post.

    Nic was on fire. He got taken out. He comes back and doesn't see the ball again for a while. He cools off.

    Now that is the difference between Nate and D'Antoni. You think he gives a shit that Lin is playing 42mpg? no freakin way. Without him, they'd be toast. And without Nic right now, we are toast as well. Play him and give him the ball! He's our best player!

    That wasn't magic. That was an imbalance of dependence on our best player. Coach doesn't know how to utilize a "team."

    If that's the case, why are you and others bitching about his minutes tonight?

    How did Roy's usg% stack up against Kobe/Wade/LeBron/Melo/etc?

    Was he used more than those players are for their team?

    Take your eyes off the box score and put them on the actual game. Nic got taken out when he was hot and he wouldn't have had 19 minutes if LMA was healthy.

    Your apologist attitude flies in the face of common sense.

    I don't care about Nic's minutes. This team has never and will never move the ball properly under Nate.

    Maybe because he was killing it, and when he got taken out the other team made a run? Watch the game much?

    Your NegaBlazer attitude, and your moronic post about defense when the team if 4th in the NBA in DEF EFF, flies in the face of common sense.

    Just got back from dinner with the gf.

    Nice to see Nate finally limiting LMA's minutes.

    And now we know why Jay Jensen has been named to the all star team.
