    Wouldn't be ironic if Luke Babbitt saved Nate's job by helping turn a 40-point deficit to into an 18-point loss? After all, Nate still has the best second half scoring margin of any coach in the league. He must be a great coach who makes great in-game adjustments! There can be no other explanation!

    Is this really true? That's pretty amazing given how fucking useless we are in fourth quarters.

    The problem is, we're even more useless in first quarters.

    Yes, it's true.

    We lead the league in second half margin at +4.4. Which just proves how totally useless this stat is for evaluating a coach's ability to make in-game adjustments. All it really proves is we outscore our opponents by boring them to death and making them lose interest when they're up by 30. After all, we were +17 in the second half last night. A lot of good it did.

    Just got back from the game. I'll never forget Luke Babbitt's magical 12 point game qt the Garden. Way to, Luke.

    I'd ask why he does it to himself, but now I wonder why he's doing it to US!

    Good for Luke! I wish he was getting his garbage minutes with the Blazers being on the other end of a blowout though.

    He should get regular minutes from now on. He plays with confidence, aggression, and he makes his fucking shots.

    I believe in the guy. I think the Blazers are going to have to decide between Batum and Wallace this summer so Luke will likely be the regular back up SF next season. He should be ready by then.
