I enjoyed the whole game. A few more baskets, a few less turnovers, and we would have won. I don't really have too much to complain about. Good entertainment for a rainy Saturday night (and yes, it's raining again...I love it).

Well, better find a new team then, because our record is .339. As long as they are trying, it's good enough for me. Besides, I think most of the team has pretty much hung it up for the year and looking to the next season
 
OK, I will come out and say it. I was one of the two "them" votes in the poll for this game. This team is just not talented enough (yet) to bounce back against a good team (although not playoff material right now, the wolves have some good talent) after getting beat by a bunch of D League wannabes.

Go ahead, shoot me....
 
Not to place all the blame on Ben but he really hurt us beyond belief this game and many others

Same here and I haven't been a happy camper about this team. Young Ray and Evans were a flash of happiness.

I wish you wouldn't do that. I liked your first couple of comments and then you had to take it too far with your last sentence, which BTW I think is patently untrue...and unfair.

Would've had more impact had you "come out and (said) it" in the first quarter instead of after we nearly came back and won, but whatever.

Now we are on the statistical pursuit of 20-20-20. It's a meaningless stat and after the pursuit of 20-5-5, I've caught on to the phoneyness of the pursuit. Winning and losing is important. Sharing the ball is important DEFENSE is important. 20-20-20 means nothing.

That 20-5-5 gimmick may have ruined Evans' career. And, the big joke is, he probably would have been ROY, anyway.
 
I'm paranoid Rudy plays individual ball at times going for stats, and maybe some of his teammates and staff are and told him as much at half.

Read post #6.....I did say it....before the first quarter. I just did not, at that time, specify that I was one of the "No" votes, but if you read my comments carefully, you could have easily figured that out....

Not gonna shoot you but I'll be honest and say I'm disappointed. Why would you say something like this now? "Oh, hey. Look at me. I picked against our own team and guess what? I was right..."

Whatever, dude.

I guess I am bitter about it. Or maybe depressed is a better word... When Gay first came over, we were doing so well and we could beat anyone. Heck we beat Miami, almost beat the Spurs etc. The games were so exciting, and lately we're having a tough time with the worst teams.

No chance he plays for stats. I've seen times where he's shooting around 40% yet still tries to creates a shot and puts up a tough shot. If he was conscious about his stats, he'd start going for just layups to increase his percentage.
 
Watching Reggie and Ray out there on the court was awesome. Love seeing the effort and hustle. I just wish Ray could've gotten some of these minutes earlier on in the year! I really do believe he can be a legitimate player in this league.

On the Cousins front - highly impressed. Huge game and kept his cool. Hopefully, it starts a trend.

How do you know he's "going for stats" and not simply trying to play his game to help us try to win? He's a scorer, he's going to shoot a lot. If he doesn't, he won't have as high a value for us

Like I said in a previous post, my first comment in this thread clearly implied that I was predicting a loss. I apologize if others did not see it that way, but I guess I will be more clear in the future....

If I were making a list of reasons that Tyreke's career hasn't worked out as planned, I think it would look more like this:

1. Terrible jumpshot
2. Glass ankles
3. Not a true distributor
4. Keith Smart
5. Paul Westphal
6. Getting jerked around between PG, SG, and SF
.
.
.
n-1. Getting caught going 100+ on the freeway
n. The 20-5-5 hype
 
A brief view of Rick Adelman being interviewed after the game and I had a momentary flash-back... God, I miss those days. But, on the other hand, I'm really beginning to feel optimistic and hopeful again, something I honestly didn't know if I'd ever be able to do.

I LOVE THIS TEAM!!

Are you feeling optimistic and hopefully because of something Adelman said during the interview? And if so, what exactly did he say?

Smart could be higher on that list as can the Maloofs general presence in Reke's life and career.
