    Man! Nurk goes out, and it's all gone hell and a hand basket. Nurk's gonna have to play more minutes. No interior defense without him.

    We just had a possession that ened up with a spinning, fallaway Patty C jumper. Shoot me.

    The quarter started off nicely, what happened? Lillard still struggling.

    Clock was winding down I think. Blame Stotts offense. Not one designed cut to the rim in that set.

    I love the look on Paul Allen's face. Says all we need to know.

    This is fucking dumb. Absolutely no rhythm or purpose on offense. Hate to say it but, a good coach gets his players back on track when they’re playing this disorganized.

    I like Stotts system but it sure seems like he doesn’t know how to get his players re focused or make adjustments if they look lost in a game.

    Pat has been awful tonight on both ends. Collins bad too. Only Shabazz has provided some outside shooting off the bench. Ed's playing hard but has no help in the paint tonight. Chief is aloof.

    A loss here isn't that big a deal if they take care of the soft early schedule and don't go on a massive losing streak at home. There is just no margin for error now and they have a bunch of tough games coming up now.

    Minnesota came prepared. We didn't. That's the problem here.

    Dame has, but they don't always get the call.

    That's the biggest problem I have with him. His only response to adversity is to pray Dame or CJ bails everyone out.

    Uh, fuck the Thunder. Minnesota has been so bad for so long I don't even think about them.

    Maybe the guys had so much fun winning that shitty game in Phoenix they thought they'd try to recreate it.
