    14-0 run and the seasons over.
    Need to trade everyone.
    Fire everyone.
    And
    Relocate the franchise.

    We're down how many with our back court having 3 points?

    Relax.

    Good grief. What a shitty quarter. Dame, CJ and Nurkic just flat out stinking up the place.

    The last time we had homecourt for first game of the playoffs, we got destroyed. Can't believe it's happening again.

    I don't think effort is the problem; if anything, we are trying too hard.

    Woohoo. We're division champs and got the 3 seed. That's all that matters to this team apparently. They're playing like this is preseason.

    Outside shots aren't falling and Stotts has nothing else even though Nurk has had Mirotic on him on switches quite a bit. That's all Stotts has on offense.....keep shooting '3's.

    We played as poorly as we have all year and our stars played like shit.

    Yet, we’re only down nine.

    The Pels are going to be kicking themselves for not taking advantage come second half, assuming C.J. and Dame start hitting shots. The should be up 20+ with the way we played.

    Yup. And rely on a star to bail out the shitty offensive system.

    Remember, CJ was surprised we got 3 seed. He's good now. He'll coast.

    How does rookie Zach Collins outplay the majority of our team in his first playoff game ever?

    They need to flip the switch, but don’t think they can find it
