    Dame says, "Remember to turn your clocks back an hour at 2 AM on Sunday or before you go to sleep on Saturday night."

    All good things must come to an end. I was hoping the streak against the Lakers would go on for eternity. But alas, it wasn't to be. If only we hit a couple more 3's, it would been a victory.

    Luckily, we have a game the very next day, so we are forced to move on and look ahead.

    This is a rare occasion: a home back-to-back. This becomes a must-win now. We haven't played well at home. It's time to turn this around!

    Let's go!

    I hate daylight savings time in the fall. Love it in the spring.

    I'm the opposite. I don't like that we lose an hour in the Spring. It wreaks havoc on my sleep cycle. We gain an hour in the fall, so I'm all for that.

    I thought it was the opposite?

    EDIT: Actually, I was right about it getting darker earlier in fall. That's what I hate more than anything.

    We're turning our clocks back at 2 AM to 1 AM, so we get to live the 1 AM hour twice. So we gain an hour. That's how I see it.

    Yeah I was thinking it got darker later with that. I hate it in fall still just because it gets dark around 5 (ugh).

    Pretty much a 'Must Win' after the loss to the Lakers. With the Bucks and Celtics in 2 of 3 after that, they need to get this one.

    Spring Forward... Fall Back

    Brush off the Lakers game and start making some shots. Watch them come out just "Lights Out" in this game.

    So I have a lot of nostalgia for the fall, and the rain, so overall I just love this time of year. However, It really sucks to go to work and it's dark and come home from and it's dark. It makes it feel like I can't really do anything, for 3-4 months. I realize I'm an adult and I can go outside when it's dark, it just has that "feeling" associated with it, that bums me out.

    That has nothing to do with daylight savings. It has to do with how far north Portland is.

    That said, id prefer not to have daylight savings - but stay on the summer schedule so it stays light later into the evening

    I'm completely aware of that, but the time change in the fall does mean that it's getting dark an hour earlier in the evenings.

    I don't think Butler played in the last game against us, did he?

    I'm gonna call this one a loss. I don't think we match up well against Minnesota. And judging by Nurk's defense, I think KAT is gonna eat him alive. I think he's gonna have a big game, and so will Butler. And judging by what I saw tonight against LA, I don't think we can overcome that on a B2B.

    Who knows.....I've been wrong before. I suppose anything can happen.:dunno: But a loss here wouldn't surprise me.

    If Butler decides he doesn't want to play, then we might have a chance.
