    Lol, the "full strength spurs" that played all 5 their starters with a 20 minute cap?

    Sounds more like the half strength spurs.

    Here's a crazy idea - teams that have their playoff position set are taking their foot off the gas a bit.

    This is a morale losing game that only leaves guys with less confidence. This is the problem with mdas half assed approach to resting guys. When you have players that don't try, you get blown out like this and your whole team leaves with a bitter taste in their mouths.

    It's hard to imagine this team losing confidence in meaningless games but it has happened. Should have really rested players.

    Guess we're gonna limp into the playoffs with no momentum what so ever... Dantoni should've just rested the starters if they were gonna go out & lay a huge turd like they did tonight. Harden needs to find his damn jumper, dude is making Westbrook look like Curry

    He's the leader of the team, bro. Gotta captain the ship regardless. Trying to actually win this might hurt us in the long run. So you just captain the game for the purpose of the long run... which is hopefully a long run during the playoffs.

    Bobby Brown is the only player playing with heart at the moment

    Eh, it's just our yearly trashing by the Clippers. Nothing to see here. Happens every season.

    Which one is worse?

    Getting beat by Felton Spencer or getting beat by Austin Rivers?

    My night is complete. Reggie Miller with the low-hanging fruit Bobby Brown joke.
