    Where's Layman? Heartless hasn't done JACK SQUAT to earn the starting position. I'm done with Heartless. At least Jake brings some energy and shooting. Heartless is his same ol' dead lead britches out there. And he aint doing squat on defense either. Meyers has gone back to being slow mo again as well. C'mon Stotts.

    They are below .500 in the crappy East.....to me, that sucks.

    And thanks for the scoreboard update. We got destroyed by 71 points in back-to-back losses. That also is sucking.

    Blended together? Two seasons ago, we were 41-41. Last year, we jumped to 49-33. This year, we have a very good record against tough schedule. Pelicans swept us last year, yes, but this year, they may not make it.

    Seems like some posters saying Orlando sucks need to update them self on basketball around the league.
    Orlando before they got annihilated by a top Western Conference team in Denver. They pushed Toronto to the limit. Before that they beat the Lakers, 6ers, and Knicks.

    The east is still the weaker conference but they are no gimmy games. Especially early in the season when every team believes they can make the playoffs.

    Your right but I figured if they was going show something from film session you would figure it be the 1st half.

    East isn’t crappy at the top half. We have yet to play crappy East teams: Hawks, Bulls, Cavs.

    Record may have been different but overall, two years ago was about average, last year was about average and so far, this year is looking like about average.

    Missed the first half and going to miss most of the 3rd at least. But WTF, we're playing shitty ass Orlando AT HOME, Dame is shooting well and Stauskus hitting 5 threes off the bench, and we're still sucking hind tit? FUCK, get your shit together, guys. Bet we let Vucevic doink us for 40 again... I hate Stotts so much sometimes.

    First shot of the half is a contested mid-range shot off one foot from CJ that barely draws iron.

    Great halftime talk, Stotts.

    Harkless right now is playing lackadaisical and inconsistent, kind of like Batum without the talent.

    Pelicans would still beat us in a playoff series today, TBH.

    I'm not sure there's a single .500+ team in the West we could beat in a series. That speaks to our supreme mediocrity.

    Blazers now down 11? I don't see much hustle, effort or passion.
