    He should've never left OKC, they probably could've beat the Warriors (assuming they kept Bogut, Barnes, Speights, and Ezeli).

    Once upon a time, the Yankees dominated the Red Sox (as usual) three times. Dominance. 3-0 series. Guess who won that series. It wasn't the Yankees.

    We have three good players and a pile of garbage.

    Good news is it's much harder to find good players than good role players.

    Bad news is the garbage is being paid like an old oil tycoon, and will be impossible to move.

    Just like the series last year. Blow a double digit lead and lose the game. Time to look ahead to next season. We know the issues this roster has. Can they be fixed with the assets available?

    Time to drop kick Tater Totts this summer. Bring in someone new to build the Dame/CJ/Nurk era from scratch.

    We will never win in this league. Maybe that's why some want us to tank every year, because they get enjoyment out of possibly winning the lottery so they can feel like we won something.

    Fulltime
    Us - 113
    Them - 119

    FTM/A (%)
    Us - 22/27 (81.5%)
    Them - 27/35 (77.1%)

    League average is 23.1 FTAPG, so this game was called tight; which is strange for a playoff game.

    Turnovers
    Us - 16
    Them - 7

    Points Off Turnovers
    Us - 21
    Them - 12

    Fast Break Points
    Us - 6
    Them - 22

    Not surprised.

    This team is still a few tiers below the Warriors.

    When Harkless and Vonleh are your starting forwards you're not going to go far.

    Evan Turner is such a shitty fit with this core.

    when you coach gets outcoached by mike brown, you know it is time to move on. That really is gross.

    The Red Sox were put together by the greatest General Manager in sports, Theo Epstein. Olshey isn't worthy to lick the sweat from Theo's nut sack.
