    Doesn't this season, so far, feel like what last season should've been? Granted, it was for most of the season..

    I wish I'd started counting earlier how many open shots we passed up, and then how many awkward contested shots we forced as a result.

    Harkless supposedly has all this athletisism, but we don't see him use it. Fucking throw it down.

    Put in layman just for the fuck of it, this is getting tiring watching this shit. Denver was scrappy. Barely made it. Suns are scrappy. Barely making it.

    Let's not forget that the Suns are our kryptonite team, they love to fuck us.

    Drive kick out drive kick out. At some point we need some inside scoring, you can't win by chucking up mids and threes all the time.

    We do tend to trade blowouts with them. We play like zombies in Phoenix and then hammer them in Portland.

    Do you know the definition of insanity? Because Stotts doesn't.

    Have we ever played well against Phoenix since dame came into the league? They just have our number for some reason.

    At home we do. We have had some of our worst games in recent years in Phoenix. I guess the fact that we're only down a few there right now is progress?

    They are like what the Warriors used to be to us in the Roy years.
