    Glad Stotts decided to put our hurt players back on court to aggravate their injuries for a loss.

    Exactly. Why pass on your offense to get Sasha Pavlovic a shot? Makes no sense.

    If all Lillard did was shoot, you guys would give him flack for that too. He's trying to be a PG, let him be one.

    Lillard needs to learn how to pick his spots more effectively. Tonight was definitely a night we needed him to score. When he looks for his shots he puts more pressure on the defense and then opens up better passing lanes. Tonight he was entirely too passive and I think he knows that. There's a fine line between being unselfish and being so unselfish that you're hurting your team. Him creating his own shots is hell of a lot more effective than giving the ball to Freeland, Pavlovic, Babbit etc.

    I cut it off, I was so disgusted with Aldridge. When Batum can't play, Aldridge is supposed to step it up. Instead he gives up right from the start. Our supposed best player depends upon everyone else to set himself up. He makes the players around him worse.

    Everything sucked tonight. I didn't think we'd get blown out by the Kings at home. It's hard to believe this team will only have enough room to sign one max player next year, with a bunch of expiring contracts. Sometimes this team looks like fuckng scrubs for a starting lineup and D-league bench for reserves....

    Aldridge played great in the first half. Got in the post, made things happen, made free throws, rebounded the ball, blocked shots. But in the second half, he got into foul trouble and he wasn able to get into a groove.

    Darn, that is so atypical of his usual 4th quarter clutch heroics.

    Gee, I sure am glad I DVR'd that game and maintained media ignorance so I could watch it when I got back to town. Fuck.

    I recognize that lamp, Sly. I used to listen to that narrator way, way, way back when. And yes, I once had a daisy red ryder air gun. And while I'd heard stories of kids sicking their tongues on metal poles in the cold of winter, I never actually knew anyone who'd done it.

    Are you high? Or did you post this to the wrong thread? Either way, I'm OK with it.

    Remember Silence of the Lambs? That's Jet posting wearing a Lanny skin suit.
