    Is that better or worse than we predicted before the season started?

    A bench? We need a more consistent starting 5.

    Slow down. Aldridge scored 38 points in a win over Thunder earlier this season and you called him a superstar. He just had a bad game but he's a top 5 player in the NBA who is tired and was questionable to play tonight.

    Our starting 5 looks gassed, otherwise they would be more efficient like they were earlier in the year.

    Most people here said it would be a race for 8 seed. Nate said 5 seed. I said 3 seed. Aldridge said 7 seed.

    I doubt anyone called LaMarcus a Superstar. He is a star but there are only a few Superstars per generation (not even per year).

    We're not going to win tomorrow. Clippers can't wait to beat us.

    Well. I have to say we are at least doing better than I thought we would! Let's hope for better luck after the break.

    Natebishop did. After the Thunder game. And after the 30/20 game against Houston on TV. Durant has bad games too. Look at last year's playoffs.

    You can limit all the starters to 5 mintes per game and they aren't shooting like they were early in the season. That ship has sailed. We need less reliance on the jumper and more plays in the paint.

    Our big 3 (LAM/Dame/Wes) combined to shoot 12-47 (25%) and took 55% of our shots. How did we only lose by 3?

    Looks like Batum and CJ had nice games (except the turnovers: yikes).

    Sounded like Batum played stellar defense too, and Fropez was a man again.

    I thought Nico, CJ, or Lillard should have taken that last shot. Definitely not LaMarcus, especially if he has a sore hammy or groin or whatever.
