    I think if there was somehow a chance that the Trail Blazers would play the Trail Blazers, both teams would lose.

    Feeling less excited about going to game on the 26th. Sad. I'm losing interest.

    Meyers just sounds like a bitch. He might even be right, but when a guy lights your ass up for 55 it's best to just go with "no comment."

    Oh no, Cousins has lost Meyers' respect.







    And in related news Cousins isn't sure which tall white guy Meyers is.

    Anyways, I'm gonna be in Canada for a few days. Guessing league pass won't work up there, and neither will NBA TV on my Sling account-- so I'm gone!

    Hope our guys turn this shit around. Based on the way this last game ended, I have a bad feeling about playing DAL on a b2b. Wessy better get his ovation.

    All I could think was, "what a whiny millennial snowflake." I'll bet he needs a safe-space now.
