    No tantrums. You just made yourself look like you don't know shit about anything. Which is factual.

    Uhh yes. That's what I do. When people think I'm an idiot ill pull the "just playing. Can't believe you fell for it card. I'm not really a moron."
    I'm not the only person who agrees with your whacked POV. Don't expect people to agree with me. So if you don't, I really don't care. Its not going to affect how I sleep tonight. Good to know you've got nothing else going for you though. Better luck next time.

    Nate got so thoroughly out coached tonight it makes me sick to my gut.

    1. The point was brought out up above about a 2 foul limit on star players. WTF? Lamarcus has never been yanked for 2 fouls in a half in about 2 years. Why start tonight? He played no minutes in the second quarter, yet in games in the past, he has done fine with foul trouble. WTF?

    2. Nate fell for the Don Nelson Jedi Mind Trick. First used in the 1st round of the NBA playoffs by Nelson against Dallas and then coach, Avory Johnson. Avory Johnson, like Nate is a "react" coach, where he tries to match up to what the other coach does. So Nellie plays small ball, and baits Nate into going small, which is Golden States strength. End results are obvious. By the way, "REACT" coaches tend not to be winners in the finals, let alone conference finals.

    3. As said above, are you ever going to stick up for your players?

    4. When are you going to teach some of your players to make a frackin entry pass?

    5. The Roy left side ISO is a FRACKING FAILURE and your other players keep bringing their guy into the middle of it.

    6. Zone defense against Golden State in the 4th? Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha! You kidding right? Your not?

    wow. Well said, you probably could have gone on and on even further. I'm too tired to do so. Night all.

    VERY FRUSTRATING!


    The refs seem to have it out for us these past 6 games or so. I know that sounds awefully "homer" of me - but it is almost as if Stern had a conference call?


    I'm questioning Nate more and more. Easy to be an armchair coach and all, but:

    1. Get a "T" Nate - c'mon, protect your team!

    2. Get mad at your own team too! Transition D stinks! ...and Nate is supposed to be a "defensive oriented" coach? Yikes!

    3. Bring in an assistant that knows some offensive sets - obviously Nate is not an offensive genious!

    4. WTF with the rotations? I just don't get this??? If Oden is playing well, but simply picking up ticky-tacky calls, then let him play on and keep some momentum. If he's creating his own fouls due to laziness, clumsiness, etc. then sit his butt down - - eventually Oden is going to have to learn to play with fouls! What is this teaching him?

    And he brings a player out of the game and you don't see the guy back in again! [and Nate did this last year too - especially with Batum. Batum would start and play most of the first half...and you'd never see him again?]


    VERY FRUSTRATING!

    The team is NOT playing hard, not playing well (look at the turn-overs!) and not playing as a team.


    I'm starting to think a great deal of this may be "coaching" as much as individual play!
