    There is definitely not enough Dave Joerger in your diet. He is the melatonin of NBA coaches.

    no, we're the best team . . . and that's without Dave Joerger

    We’ve had an easy schedule so far and our defense is a huge liability. We’re not going to sustain 3rd place giving up 119 PPG.

    Wizards, Bulls, Pelicans, Thunder, Golden state, Memphis.

    Who can guess what 2 things they all have in common?

    Wednesday will prove to be a big test for this group. Let's see if #2 will p***y out and rest against us since they play again the following night.

    But at least the effort level is back

    They suck and have some of the worst records in the league.

    But good teams beat the teams they’re supposed to beat so gotta give credit where it’s due. With that being said it’s not like we’ve looked amazing doing so and we’re not sustaining our winning ways giving up 119 points a game.

    I don't think we can even look past the pelicans at this point...Alonzo ball is hitting his three and they didn't even have Holliday last time....we can easily lose that game

    Yeah hopefully it’s a sign of good things to come and we can consistently give that type of effort night in and night out.

    They really don't have a choice, it's now or never....they are not athletic enough to get by on just pure talent... we need one hundred percent effort and teamwork on defense to overcome our lack of personal. Not only that we need to cut the ****ing turnovers and shoot well in order to beat a good team

    True. You can always count on some Pelican player having a career night against us.

    Ball may be out btw.

    you know that one stretch of elite 3 point shooting by opponents and bad effort was that. They arent going to give up 119 per game. That 158 point wizard game weighs at 11 percent of our PA average. Its going to just take a few more games to get our average allowed down.
