    The pace is going to get significantly slower without Westbrook and will make the defense look better. The challenge is figuring out to play great defense while playing at one of the fastest paces in the NBA.

    I meant the Nets they were (1-4) before playing us & Grizz is also (1-4).
    Against the heat is definitely something i'm trying to forget & based off these 6 games our players seems to do a pretty good job in forgetting how horrendous their defense has been & continue to not GAF about defense...
    Hope they show some damn Pride & win on both end of the floor tonight.

    They will win and the trade Westbrook threads will begin right after.

    I don’t support a team that doesn’t show up. Do you respect a person in another profession who doesn’t put in the effort to do their job as best as they can? No. So why excuse millionaires playing a sport?

    Should be a W.

    We need to figure out our rotations, and fast.

    How do they determine negative offensive points?

    Try this link.

    I imagine if a player is shooting so terribly, they are offensively negative in this scale.

    So, for PF, that would be points below DMo?
    And, for SG, points underLin.
