    8 point loss and the Blazers made them play the entire game. Nothing to hang their heads over there.

    They're trying to compensate for something. What that something is, I have no earthly idea.

    If you told me this would be our record before the season, I'd have taken it.

    Well, that's kinda my point. My original statement was that coaching was the reason the Spurs are so much better than us, not talent. While admitting that they are more talented...but not by as much as people seem to think.

    Because i would play that way also. So it's what i like to see. This is entertainment for me. I am entertained by my team playing with heart and as competing as hard as they can.

    How is it a voice of reason? We're getting ready to go into the playoffs. Who are we most likely to see in the playoffs? The Warriors, Spurs, and Thunder.

    Warriors crushed us all game and won by 16.

    Thunder crushed us all game and won by 34.

    Spurs have handily won the second half and are beating us by 8.

    We're not doing so hot against playoff teams right now, and those are the teams we're going to have beat, in their house, if we have any hope of advancing.

    Geez Blue, you forgot the main pair.

    Popovich/Stotts

    The difference there is why Aldridge and Mills play so damn well in SA instead of Portland.

    You are a bit biased i believe. Not that i don't understand but he has put up the numbers and is now a 4 time All-Star and will be at least 4 more before he is done. He will most likely win enough and will get in. At least that is the way i see it. The guy is a second pick and has always been on winning teams.

    Rasheed had a better career, won a ring, and he's not in the HOF.
