    I'd bet money they'll get farther than this team.

    Character reveals itself when times are tough. I'm sticking with this team. I'll let others quit on it. Frankly, we're better off without you. Go ahead and hop off the bandwagon: You quitters will make great L*ker fans.

    And the number one seeded Spurs the next night.

    At the beginning of the season, you said we were in mediocre "hell." You were right.

    Matthews missed the FT that would've locked it up.

    How many FG's in the last 7:32 of the game and OT?

    This team just can't execute in crunch time. That's not good.

    Do me a favor. Don't post here for the rest of the season. You post the same shit over and over. It's fucking tiresome.

    Hey, Bones is on right now. If I watch "The Memories in the Shallow Grave" will I be spared from KingSpeed bitching about the Blazers?

    The 2 most common causes of tanking: management trying to get more lotto balls or the players quitting on the coach.

    Batum and Lillard combined for 14 turnovers. That didn't help. Beverley really gets under Lillard's skin. But at least he didn't injure him, like he did Westbrook.

    Nic hasn't been much help for a while. I wonder if his wrist is still bothering him. This is like down the stretch last year.

    And I admitted I was wrong about us being mediocre. You now seem to embrace my incorrect feelings at the beginning of the season.

    That argument applies to players as well as fans.

    I don't know if there's a player on this Houston team that I _don't_ hate. Lin maybe (who was their best player tonight).

    Batum's 7 TO don't even tell the whole story

    He was dreadful tonight making decisions.

    The one pass on the fastbreak where he tried to hit a guy in the corner, and it ended up being a perfect bounce pass to Harden, was embarrassing.
