    And that has what to do with a offensive foul not called? Heh. :)

    Bro this team is such a fucking joke. You can claim that Utah is more talented but they WAY they play is so much better on both sides of the ball. I get the defense, but my goodness, Snyder can really coach on both sides of the ball. If he was our coach, I guarantee our shot quality would go up. And Snyder's a "defensive-minded head coach"...

    I guess a Stotts is a "developmental-minded head coach". That doesn't make sense for a team trying to win actual basketball games. I'm so tired of getting destroyed by every solid team. I'm sure the same people who think we were gonna blow out Utah tonight aren't going to like this, but it's the truth.

    This is game #32 and we have ONE win against a winning team all year. I just want us to be competitive :(

    If we had Nurk, we'd have two great centers. Makes a difference.

    Bazemore's been worse in that regard lately.

    Mitchell already gets better star treatment from the refs than Dame. Ridiculous.

    Technically when Dame was out a few years ago they started Shabazz, so I guess they werent missing a starter.

    naw this team is fucked. I think they should tank. why fight and risk injury for an 8th spot and an inevitable sweep by the lakers. makes no sense to me. I firmly believe that Stotts has to go in order for this team to have more sucess

    That was tinkering. Stotts needs to GTFO at the very least. Time to trade CJ if you can get younger and more athletic.

    I would submit changing up the bench and the worst SF/PF combination in the league isn't exactly fundemental change.

    I believe there starting 5 right now should be WS, Skal, Little, CJ and Dame. Much better rebounding and defense. Let Melo and Baze help out the bench.

    4:0 run and they immediately call timeout.

    One all star. One well above average (HW) player. One above average (CJ) player. The rest are below average to way below average including two well below in our starting lineup. We have a talent problem.

    Don't you think Olshey and Stotts promised Melo he'd start before he signed with us? I agree with your lineup, but it probably isn't going to happen.
