    Chris Paul is the smartest motherfucker in the NBA today. He's no better than Lillard at physical talent, but he wins on IQ.

    Did you even watch the game? The defense is TONS better. This is basketball. You're not going to shut out the other team...

    The lack of movement on the 2nd team has me most concerned.

    Yeah, disappointing considering Speights is a terrible defensive player. Our bench had no answer.

    You actually thought the defense was good? The number of open shots, blown coverages, and horrendous mistakes leading to open shots at the rim were jarring.

    Lillard could play like a dirty little fuck and we'd still love him.

    Bad officiating will skew the score. In a well officiating game, bad calls should have a near net 0 effect on the score. But when it's skewed for one team it affects the outcome of the game. It's not a hard concept to understand.

    really really hope not. Not a good look for the g uy who is pretty much the face of the NBA's anti bullying campeign. That would blow up into a huge thing, maybe bigger then when Rondo said that gay slur to the gay ref a year or two ago.

    We killed them on points in the paint tonight. I think at one point they showed we had 48 and they had 32. They shot 40% from the floor. We had runs of bad D, but overall we held our own for all of their "firepower". If we had a weakness on defense it was giving up too many offensive rebounds and being called for a lot of chickenshit fouls.

    By lip reading, I think the last word in his sentence was "horrible"

    We missed FTs.
    We missed shots we normally make.
    The refs were awful, but they are awful every time we play them.
    ET has got to play better.

    We're the better team, but that doesn't always matter.
