    I don't think we're worried.... it's moreso elation and enjoyment from them getting a taste of their own medicine.

    Wish his superstar power involved 12 FTA per game... Instead he gets the Basketball equivalent of the Wonder Twins turning into a mop and bucket.

    Yes. We probably lose this game by 8 or 10, unless we get off our duffs and hit shots.

    Maybe, but this is a very veteran crew so while they may even out a bit I don't think they'll go overboard.

    The bench HAS to play better. I don't expect fireworks, but they're 1-12 right now. That's fucking ridiculous. We need good Mo and we need Robinson to slow down just a bit. He was playing well, but obviously out of control.

    Its ok, I hope that locker room is positive and 'clean slate' oriented. Applaud that we are playing our game plan, re-inforce the positive matchups and kick the shit out of the bench (in a good christian way it is Easter) for missing so many shots.

    Exactly. You gotta trust the defense behind you.

    Shaq keeps calling Lopez "BBQ Chicken". Charles defending him. No time to discuss the actual game, LOL.

    To negate it Stotts should put Leonard in so he can tombstone anyone who attempts to go into the lane.
