These slow starts and early deficits don't even bother me anymore because we come back every time.

    We're down 50-42 to the Timberwolves right now. We've had some other slow starts and early deficits recently to the Magic and Raptors. I used to worry in the first half if we got off to a slow start but it's nice being able to rest easy knowing that we will just come back in the second half.

    Do y'all agree? You have to have more confidence in our second half play compared to the last few seasons, right?

    Yeah, but we're shorthanded... err... short-toed. And Ryan Anderson is shooting 1-for-infinity. Hopefully you didn't jinx us and we can pull this out.

    There's also gotta be a joke in here somewhere about Capela's broken leg ,,, maybe making us immune to knee-jerks right now.

    Short-toed and knee-jerkless ... bring on the lame jokes ... break a leg ,,, they can't even jinx us.

    We really miss Clint . Having Clint in forces teams to pay attention to the alley oop during the early part of the game , because if they don't then we will dunk it down their throats. Clint as the rolling threat opens up a lot for everyone else . Also Clint is and exceptionally valuable defender for us and shuts down the paint better than either nene or harrel could dream of right now .
