    To me, it has to be that home Philly loss. That one had me down and out, stewing, for a few days.

    Wow, 9 threads started by you on this page alone.

    Anyway, I would say the loss against the Magic when Hedo hit that lucky three, mostly because I hate the Magic. Im still pissed about that because we had that game.

    Yeah, that would have to be a close second for me. We got blown out early, though, so the "sting" wasn't as bad as the Philly loss.

    I was probably most pissed about game 1 vs the Lakers. Nate made a huge coaching gaffe by not starting Nicolas and the team looked scared.

    Clippers loss at home. Or the Magic loss at home.

    Road losses--even to young/bad teams--I can live with. Having a team down at the end and letting them wiggle off the hook is more painful to me for some reason.

    The losses to Philly and Orlando were pretty bad. The 2 losses to the Warriors were frustrating. Losing to the Clips and Thunder was real gut punch.

    That's 6 games. Win even half of those, and the play-off seedings look real different.

    Philly loss is first to me. It'd been awhile since I've been that pissed off after a game and we had a chance to be in first place in the division.

    Then it's the Clippers loss. Blake, ugh.

    Then the Magic loss. Stupid lucky bank shot.

    Easy answer. Opening night at Staples against the Lakers, Oden goes down again with an injury, and it's time to press the panic button after a 20 point loss in which the team scores 76 points.

    That one also sucked, mainly because you and I started insulting each other for no reason at all other than the loss and Outlaw's play in the game.

    Oddly(?), that was one of Sergio's best games of the season.

    Hasn't happened yet. Our last playoff game this spring is my nomination. Unless, of course, our last game is a win...

    The one that pissed me off the most was the Charlotte loss. Free throws should not be that difficult. The OKC game is a close second.
