    Meyers is actually helpful in some situations.

    I seriously can't recall a single moment when Evan Turner has been useful. Neil Olshey should be unemployed based on that single contract alone.

    Turner is fucking awful right now.

    Turner, Aminu, and Nurkic... What a killer frontcourt.

    So I wonder if Stotts learned Meyers doesn't work tonight.

    A couple times a year (against OKC he was solid).

    Tonight, he's trash. Animus trash. All our role players are struggling outside of Davis and Napier (who hasn't done much).

    14 point lead and gave almost all of it back. I hope this gets better in the 2nd half.

    Meyers is so fucking useless. It's like having 5 against 4 when he's playing.

    And fuck Thomas. What a mouthy little douche.

    Turner hit three threes vs OKC and he hit game icing free throws against GS, off the top of my head

    How would he know? He hasn't given him the opportunity to make 6 of 12 swish3s. We'd be up by 17 if Meyers played instead of Collins (0-1 from swish3)

    Our lead went away when our defense turned to shit. We win this game if we defend.

    They are struggling for sure tonight. Chief looks out of sorts the last few. Nurk needs to take advantage of his matchups better tonight.

    So worried about this game, we need a big 3rd quarter here

    Who was saying both guards never get off to good starts? Well at half, they're both shooting 50%+

    When the 2nd most notable thing he's done this year is make a pair of FTs, thats how you know he's trash.

    Nobody said that. He asked when the last time they did because they've gotten off to 3 for 10 starts the past few games.

    The turnovers have been a big problem. The Lakers are pretty dynamic in the open court so the live ball ones have been particularly bad.

    (OT) I'm stoked that Ichiro is going back to the Mariners. Dude's 4 years older than I am and can still play. And he jokes (?) about pitching in relief.
