For saying we are not contenders? Eat me. You don't own this site. I can say we are not contenders because we are not. When we beat the Thunder and Clippers I will shut up. We will have to go through AT LEAST one of the to make it to the WCF (where the contenders are) and we wont. Friggin' homers. "Bwhahahahaha man you are off the chains. Every good team has lost 2-3 games in a row. I see know what many on here mean when they say Knee-jerk, and over-reaction. LOL the Rockets hasn't proven sh&t so why are you saying they are contenders. When was the last time they made it to the WCF? I will wait for that one." So the team that beat us down 3x this season is not contenders, but we are? Let me be real with you guys. Miami is the only real championship contender. They will beat Indy in the ECF and go on to beat either the Spurs or the Thunder (depending on if the league wants a repeat of last years finals or a rematch vs. the Thunder). Friggin' homers.
The Clippers now have Granger, Dudley, Davis, possibly Reddick, the new & improved Blake Griffin along with Deandre. I think they deserve Indy's place when I say they are in the top 4.
We just had bad shot selections this game...but I dont think there is anything inherently wrong with the team. We should be fine going forward, and our starters got good rest this game
I don't think Lin has done a decent job on defense and offense. Anytime there is a PNR, even Beverly can't defend that. Just wish we could do more of PnR with Howard.
This is pathetic. Whatever we are doing now is very different than last year we played them. Remember the Christmas Day blow out? We now have a better center. We should blow them out even more. Well, we played beautiful bb last year game by ball movements and Lin penetrating at will creating open shots for our shooters. Now we play... well hero balls and if those don't fall, we get blown out. Great defensive teams can shut down our iso and post ups. We need Lin to create ball movement and team ball like last year.
Well, you can see the Noah's determination when he plays, he is a fighter. Howard...is just a superman.
The Heat, Spurs and Thunder are top contenders while the Rockets, Clippers,Warriors, and Pacers are right behind them. IMO Yes the Heat are the reigning Champions but they are not the only contenders.
Pathetic game from all but lin. Smh on that. Wtf. I hope this is not a preview on what teams will do to us in playoffs. It sux when all ur shiit bricks and all their shiit sinks.

You can do talk that way if it makes you feel better. Miami has a 90% chance of coming out of the east barring major injury and the pacers have a 10% chance. the spurs and the thunder have a combined 85% chance and the clippers have a 5% chance. that leaves 10% for the blazers, rockets, warriors, and grizzlies. but again whatever makes you feel better. the fact is wpthe rockets just got out toughed by MIKE freaking DUNLEAVY.
Superstar iso heavy teams have no chance against good defensive teams. In the playoff, if we play this style, we are doomed in the 1st round. If superstar iso heavy strategy works, then NY Knicks with Melo & Stat would not find themselves in such bad shape.
