    The guy threw a horrible telegraphed pass. And stood there. Didn't even fake trying to get back and he's still playing 4 minutes later. Stotts needs some balls.

    Jeez. I think we just ran out of shit to talk about. I mean half the posts in here were about Meyer's hair. You can only blame the same shit over and over, before it gets old.

    We are sticking with them but seems we step slow on defense. Might to the back to back.

    Harkless at the 4 has not been a recipe for success this year...those units get hammered every time.

    The TNT announcers are bigger Laker homers than the Laker announcers.

    This game is reminiscent of Dallas, prolly the worst game of the year so far among a bunch of bad ones.

    Let me vent in peace.

    Luckily they still have plenty of time to recover and get this in the win column.

    The Blazers are not giving them any reason not to be. Sad....

    I bet we could get 3 if we just traded CJ or Dame.

    Turner plays well but has a bad game: "Oh he sucks why did we overpay for tha scrub"
    Leonard sucks ass but has one "good" game (which means the shot fall and he doesn't do anything else): "OMG THE GOD HE WILL SAVE THE FRANCHISE"

    Our defense looks lazy again. We're just hanging back and letting them attack us. Why did we change?

    Has anyone come even remotely close to saying that about Meyers? Ever?

    Seriously Stotts... have you not seen enough of this defense? I've seen it enough to last me a lifetime.

    Three ridiculous turnovers in a row. I don't know why I keep thinking this team might finally pull it together.
