    yeah, it's not often a team shoots 60% on FG's and 58% on 20 3ptFGA's and is trailing on the scoreboard

    I wish, if they were going to show that All State commercial with the Pet Shop Boys song "Opportunities", that they would've at least found a woman who could sing near the correct notes.

    That is painful to listen to. It's not even like she's tryin to harmonize, she's off in her own little melody.

    He’s a one-dimensional player on offense and sucks on defense.l, so if his shot isn’t falling he’s a complete liability.

    Why he thinks he’s getting a big contract this summer other than he signed with Klutch makes no sense.

    When did Jake Gyllenhaal sign with the Mavs?

    Enes tough as nails. Nurk would surely be on the hardwood.

    Pet Shop Boys are so underrated by Americans. I could listen to every version of “It’s a Sin” on a loop.

    That was a wide open alley-oop opportunity, but this team seems allergic to lob passes.

    Not sure the teams defense carried over from the New Orleans game.

    Either that or New Orleans is so shitty that even passable defense looks good, but won't work against a decent team.

    I see they're back to leaving players wide open for 3. So nothing has changed.

    It’s so fun watching both teams not playing any defense

    Hard to play defense when they never miss. First team to go cold is down by 20.

    To win this game we got to put effort on defense but going small that means bad rebounding and no rim protection.

    Freudian slip. Kanter’s defense stinks like an anus.
