    LOL, remember when people were going around all cocky like "we can compete for the 7th-8th seed" and "Kevin Martin is our superstar"? That week of false hope wasn't worth screwing up our draft pick.

    Tanking is not going to spew out a miracle worker in the draft. I hope you realize that.

    We have already won one! Toronto game at home. We are 1-5 so far in this stretch.

    V. Utah - W
    @ Boston - L
    V. OKC - L
    V. NOH - W

    We will be 3-7 I think...

    Trading players that aren't in the team's future like Scola, Brooks, Battier, Martin, etc will bring some young pieces.

    22 game losing streak!!!

    Trying to be a little bit more positive, I think 3-7 will not be that bad in this stretch. We really have to admit that December was the schedule and that it is starting to be clear that our current talent is good enough for 9 or 10 in the West. I am hoping New Orleans or Denver declines, because Portland an injured Portland is definitely better than an injured Houston.

    I agree, Portland is not likely to be the one who we can replace. New Orleans has been playing bad after a dream start so they may drop, but right now memphis is ahead of us... GS and PHX are only 1 game behind or so.... its going to be tough to make playoffs.

    I hope so... if we win all 4 games then we will be back to .500 and also finish 5-5 in the tough 10 game stretch.

    Utah and Noh home games seems winnable. We can also take care of OKC @ home. We have been playing great at home. Won like 9 of last 11 and we should have won last one. We have to win these home games!!

    @ Boston seems toughest game. There will be no KG.

    Yeah that was after beating the Clippers, Wiz and Raptors without Bargnani. That display of cockyness was sad and pathetic.

    If we didnt trade for Martin, maybe we could have landed a top 5 pick and landed Cousins. We would have had like $17 mil to spend in FA as well.

    Oh well its always easier to look back and criticise decisions than to make a good desion in the present.

    Without Brooks, Yao, and no other guys step up with consistency, we just aren't that good a team.

    I will keep on supporting the team. Let's get a win over the Celtics first! Miracles do happen.
