Positive I hope is that we're losing these close games now and the guys will respond with realizing they need to focus and play better and simply stop the lazy ass passes and stupid turnovers that are losing us these games, the good thing is this can be done and if so will be a very big benefit in the playoffs
I'm positive I have negative feelings for Mo Williams dribbling out the shot clock while his teammates stand there waiting to see what the fuck he's going to do. Once, twice a game, I can live with but I'll grumble. Any more than that, and I want to kick the TV...
Mo is not losing these games, in fact his very good play the past few games has put the starters in a position to win, they are fukkin it up
Yeah, pretty sure he had 11 assists last night. Can't be pissing away the shot clock too often when you rack up 11 AST off the bench. BNM
One more positive: We're not the Minnesota Timberwolves. They are, once again, struggling to get above .500 and will miss the playoffs for the 10th straight season. Their two high lottery picks are flashy - Love for his stats and Rubio for his no look passes to some guy in a parka in the 7th row, but neither actually do much to help their team win. Their payroll is over the cap, and over $8 million more than the Blazers this year. They already have over $66 million worth of garanteed contracts on the books for next season, which means they are already over the cap and will be flirting with the luxury tax if they try to add a player that will actually make them better. Plus, they play in Minnesota where it's cold as fuck for the entire NBA season. BNM
I lined everything up, airfare, hotel, ticket etc, but my husband won't let me go. I'll do Memphis eventually. Just not this year. We play in Charlotte on the 22nd and I might be able to go to that one. Memphis, Charlotte, and Denver are the only ones I haven't been to. Missed both Denver games this year. So maybe Charlotte, maybe Charlotte. But dang I wish I was headed to Memphis tomorrow. I want to show the team I BELIEVE.
How about this? We're currently rope-a-doping the league, making them think we can't play any defense and that the slightest bit of pressure will take us out of our offensive game. Meanwhile, in practices, we're working on the most sophisticated offensive sets ever seen on the hardwood. And defensively five become one, in a shifting, flowing 12' iron wall that only allows 35' heaves. Keeping it behind closed doors means that our opponents won't know what hit them. Sure, over the course of an 82-game season a think-tank of the brightest coaching minds might figure out a few creative ways to counter our masterful game, but 16 games won't be enough for them to even comprehend the hurt we'll lay down.
