    Exactly as it's NBA basketball. Yes, a win would have been nice and it was there to be had, but it didn't. Move on to the next game.

    Here's something to try....give props to the Grizz for locking down on D in the 4th......or will your feelings allow this? Memphis won because they earned it...not because we threw a game...credit Conley for doing what he's capable of doing. For the tail end of a long ass 7 game road trip...we ran out of gas at the end of that game....shit happens...

    I don't think they will catch Denver and I don't they will slip to 7 or 8 so I just leaves those 4 teams playing against each other. I am not panicking because it out my control if they win or loose. Plus I don't loose any over it either. Now my younger years I was a little different through I was little radical when I watch my teams play.

    I have my opinion, you have yours. No issue.

    I am getting tired of defamatory mischaracterizations over those opinions because other people disagree.

    The key will be the 2 head to head meetings with Denver as well as tomorrows game against OKC. It will show us how much of a chance we have to move to the second seed. Houston is playing extremely well right now and will be a factor going down the stretch as well.

    I'm not characterizing him at all. I analyze his coaching decisions and provide my opinion. I'm also stating my opinion on what they do and do not deserve props for, since I get a constant barrage of "You have to give Stotts props for this", etc.

    That's quite different than CW purposely, negatively mischaracterizing my disposition because he doesnt like my opinion in regards to a coaching topic.

    You really should take a break from this forum as spending 24/7 in here doesn't make you an expert. It makes you needing a life/job. :bgrin:

    We typically start out as strong as any team in the league in the first quarter. Then what happens? We typically lose our lead. Now this is to be expected now and then but we lose a lot of dd leads. Does opponent makes changes and then we don't?

    This happens to every team in the league...refs call games differently than in the past and we're in an era of teams scoring 150pts a game....going 5-2 on the road is the stat that matters in the end..all teams can make big runs and all teams have to weather those runs.

    Unfortunate way to end a great trip. I think we the team left if you had asked if everybody was cool coming home 5-2, every one of them would have taken it. 4.5 hour flight home last night. I hope the players are sleeping in.

    I have never seen one post giving props to Stotts for tying his tie. Maybe you can enlighten the rest of us little guys and bring up some of those posts so we can all become as knowledgeable on ties as you. Serious question. Do you know how to tie a tie?

    AFAF

    It's an anology. I see where you struggled to comprehend that post though.
