    The team has only one true big. Morey needs to find a way to get another true big that can play physical. Kaman would be nice to have but what are odds on Stern allowing the trade to go through.

    our interior defense was -100 tonight.
    in an alternate universe, we would have had both pek and lin.
    morey wanted peck last year.
    morey would have kept lin this year if the trade had gone through.

    our possible lineup.

    nene/pekovic
    gasol/patterson/hayes
    parsons/cbud
    lee/twil
    lowry/lin

    *sob*

    Exactly McHale didn't even give Bun any playing time.

    what?

    Stay closer how? It's called Help D we have none. Rubio was using screens all over the place and was just giving it to the open man.

    Now I see why morey is looking at gasol we need CONSISTANT big man that can score rebound and play D . Jumpshooting only or luis. Continued slow motion fakes in post won't cut it any more . Its time to improve this team before deadeline

    Rockets tried to sign another player who played for the Warriors last season during training camp. So I say unlikely.

    kevin love is a superstar, gets 33/17 is understandable, but Peckvic???? 30/12, WOW, how bad is our interior defense, if Deke were here, he would blocked and ass off of Peckvic and throw him to the ground

    You mean that same lineup that brought the team back from down 15 points?

    Yeah, why use that lineup?

    /sarcasm

    Anyways, I had a bad feeling about this matchup all day. Just felt like this was going to be a loss.

    Lowry gets lost on screens too easily. Rubio was beating Lowry off the dribble.

    David Stern screwed us. Would of been nice to have a 7'0'' in there.
