    Looking back: We're down 1 and Dame gets a wide open 2 and Tatum takes a semi-contested 3. Those percentages favor us and you've got to let the chips fall where they may.

    Teams with no all-stars have beaten us. I mean, I guess if that's what you take from it, OK, but I see it more as another decent team we couldn't beat.

    Of course. And we've beaten teams with multiple all-stars. Law of averages are the teams with more star players win more games.

    Not my opinion. Just the facts.

    Not upset about this one. Best we’ve looked against a playoff team in a long time. It could’ve gone either way. The important takeaway is Nurk is rounding into form and we are way better on both sides when he is on the court. +19 in 25 minutes. He’ll have to play 35-38 minutes to win big games down the stretch and in playoffs. He was just scratching the surface of his potential tonight. I really enjoyed that game. Time to beat up on a couple mediocre teams now. We’ll get another test against Clippers next week.

    Exactly. And a big reason we were in this is because of Melo. The problem isn’t too much Melo. It’s not enough Melo. When he’s on, it’s always competitive. When he’s off, we’re terrible.
