    I heard Jokic once worked as a baiter on a fishing boat.

    Same. Those two were extremely disheartening.

    Maybe this guy can get you home for Christmas. I’m sure you’re right into polka.

    In all seriousness, good luck!

    Delta NBA Charter…. There are about 12-14 planes that fly all the teams around. Our plane must have just dropped a team off in Minny and couldn’t fly out. Just boarded heading to get de-iced! Says we are landing in PDX around 3:30 am

    Sounds like you'll be having Christmas Eve and Christmas with your family, something most of us take for granted. Happy to hear it!

    they said the same thing about the bucks until they got lucky and got a mvp in the draft. we need that same amount of luck to ever compete.

    The best we've looked in Dame's career is when we've had a professional shooter off the bench in Mo Williams and then Seth Curry. Those were our best years. We made it to the WCF with Enes Freedom as our center guarding Jokic. Seth Curry was a big reason why. Also- I know we all hated Evan Turner for his contract, but we've missed him terribly as well. His postgame, defense, passing, and leadership off the bench have not been replaced. Remember- he hit the FTs that sealed Game 7 in Denver.

    I don't want to quote all of your post game thoughts but it's very evident that tonight/last night you went from believer to someone who knows this current roster doesn't stand a chance. We need to make some moves and I believe that Cronin will make the right ones. We'll just have to wait and see. Just don't start posting about this roster's championship potential if we win a couple in a row or you will show yourself to be a true captive of the moment instead of a measured thinker.

    I really don’t know how this is the same team that beat Phoenix and New Orleans without Dame… they went from looking so good early in the season to just straight up bad. It's frustrating dude

    It’s bound to happen. Sooner or later if you say “Loss” it will happen.
    Congratulations on finally posting something right.

    42 wins bro. If they do better than that I'm happy. They are on pace for better than that so far. No question they need to make some moves at the deadline if possible.
