    Its all Good. We get to see Meyers drop 20+ on us in a week in his revenge game. It's going to be fun.

    huh? Carmelo barely got a job in the league. CJ and Hassan have never sniffed an all star team.

    When I respond to your post, I believe everyone can read it. If I only wanted you to know what you said was inaccurate, I would send you a direct message.

    What do you mean... looks like he’s basically doing a home grown version of TS%.

    Saying this for years
    I thought this team would sneak into the playoffs. With our starting unit, if any of our bench guys started to do anything as the year went on we should be somewhere between six and eight in the West.

    After tonight, I don't see it. I think this team has packed it in emotionally. I could see this even getting uglier by February.

    Yep. 6th seed is gone. 7th really is too. 8th is our only hope and it's a big pack of teams up for that. If Warriors get Curry back, they could even get into the picture.

    But they actually run a offense and they play as unit both ends. There star players get there points within the offense. It big difference how we play.

    Melo is nowhere near as good as Saric.

    I'll give you 5:1 odds we won't have 3 all-stars this year.

    CJ nor Whiteside are going to make an all-star game any time soon. Probably never. 29 teams didn't even think Melo was worthy on being on their roster and I don't think you can say that about any all-star caliber player.

    nope. TS% gives a proper weight to FT's and doesn't count shooting fouls as FGA's. He was trying to argue that each FTA counts as half a FGA....which is just loopy
