    Shooting off the dribble wasn't his problem. I've always thought his shot looked slightly hitchy, but I admittedly haven't watched him much. A couple of games in college and youtube videos.

    Basketball gods, if you're listening (or reading), we're still not square yet.

    We're a comfortable 2 losses better than Spurs. I hate the Thunder. So I'm rooting for the Spurs. I want OKC and Minnesota to miss playoffs. But if OKC wins, so be it. Our cushion over the Spurs gets better. Win win.

    Good. Now if Lonzo Ball can do something to that ugliness. He needs to shoot 50 percent from 3 if he wants to keep that shit.

    Meh, don't really care about what the teams behind us do. #ownyourdestiny

    But I like the narrative the RW is a selfish ballhogging stat-hoarding player who freezes out teammates because he thinks he should be taking the shots, and losing. Especially with players like PG13, Melo, Durant, Harden (in the recent past) on his team. So I'm ok every time he loses.

    It’s OK if Spurs win today since they are not winning the next game against the Rockets

    Paul Pierce says Toronto aren't a threat. Says that Blazers can beat Minnesota in first round but not SA or OKC. We'll see. I agree that we have to prove ourselves in the playoffs before people give us our due.

    As for Westbrook, it's ironic that he leads the league in assists. You'd think that would mean that he involves his teammates and yet when it matters, he doesn't. Go Spurs.

    Need the Spurs to get as many L’s in as possible in case Kawhi leads them on a run.

    OKC has no bench. It will never work in the playoffs.
