    If all we're gonna be doing is sneak into the playoffs via tiebreaker I'd rather lose the tiebreaker and get the last lottery pick then sneak into the playoffs and get blown out by the number 1 seed.

    One mediocre team lost to another tonight.

    I want to see More TWill and more Patterson.

    That's all.

    Was his rookie season though. Also players tend to get more selfish when they play on bad teams.

    JJ should play at the 5,he should be Hill's 1st replacement. Patterson should replace Luis at the 4. Miller will get his minutes.

    There was no effort and no energy tonight. I thought the outcome was determined early in the 2nd quarter when Brooks and the rest of the bench were being overrunned by the Blazers, but brooks was still out there attempting to dribble between 2 defenders, only to get his pocket picked by patty again..again..and again..

    If was going to miss a game out this season then I'm glad it was this one, at least I got to see garbage time with T-Will showcasing his courtvision. I see Patrick got 10rbs again, how did he play overall?

    True, but Lowry couldn't even do what he does best, get to the line. He had two free throws in the game. He couldn't draw contact and get the whistle, he couldn't score, and he couldn't get the assist. At some point you have to say he didn't bring his A-game.

    I agree. It seems that not having Hayes's passing is disrupting the rhythm of the offense. Wouldn't be surprised if the points-off-assists numbers took a dip in the past two games for the starting lineup with Chuck out.

    It can't help that Martin is working through knee issues either.

    JJ not in the Rocks plans so he will get no playing time. I wonder if they will begin experimenting and play more Pat and T-Will even though it might be an incline towards tanking.

    Jesus Christ I'm sick of the layup drills opposing teams get on us.

    We need some size and shot blocking down at the low post badly.

    Morey please do something sooner rather than later.

    The longer we wait, we start to become sellers than buyers.

    Hahaha, Lakers getting booed at home. Happy to see Barnes may never get a ring. He doesn't deserve it.

    I say it seriously, without Hayes, we need Jeffries, and I expect to see him soon, even starting.

    I wonder what would have happened if we stuck JJ on Aldridge and Patterson on Camby.

    The main problem is that...Hill can't play Center. He always look lost at that position and just seems to play PF with ease. When we see Hill in with Miller at C or even Hayes that's usually when he's hustling, boarding, and throwing down nasty dunks.

    I compare it a lot to what we did with Ariza. Had him playing SG a position that required him to handle the ball way more than he should have. Once we got Martin and moved him to SF he played much better.

    I think the rest of the starters especially Hill not bringing their A game brought down Lowry with them, his backup was getting torched and brought his F game as in "I got F'd in the butthole by some Aussie".
