    We have a new coach and an even newer starting lineup of 3 whole games. Looks like we have found our new starting power forward/ backup center forward in Capela. Beverly looks good in the starting lineup.

    The guys no longer give up when the other team gets a lead, even a large one, but keep fighting. This was not happening before. If you looked at the bench during last night's comeback, they were up and cheering and looked happy for each other. Rather than pouting after sitting for a day Ty Lawson hit three straight threes. Terrence Jones seems to be responding to losing his starting position by playing harder though his play shows why he should be a reserve.

    Maybe we should give Harden a game off or two, and see if that can jumpstart the other guys who are cold. He's regressing badly. Let's see if he can get back his mojo after some time off.

    Wish I had program and skills to make .gifs
    Jones plays less than Harden, but they probably have the same amount of zero ****s given on defense per 48. He just ballwatches, doesn't box out. I lowed the way how he lost Morris on a simple screen and clashed into bighead... Thornton. Seconds later Morris went for a monster putback dunk while Jones was just watching in no man's land.
    Not to mention Jones is getting blocked on his first FGA in EVERY game this season. I mean it is crazy.

    I'll go out on a limb and say Davis goes for a cool 38 pts, 15 boards, 10 assist and 10 blocks tomorrow.

    is it possible to send everyone except Capella to the d-league.? Bring the Vipers in. I want to watch people who are psyched to play NBA basketball try their hardest to win games.

    Khloe is a helluva drug.

    Never mind, Harden was giving bullcrap effort 2nd half of last season and all 2014 to begin with.


    Bahaahahah

    They are making some improvements but it's been nothing drastic.
