Game thread.

Omg please someone tell me it wouldn't be a good idea just to go back to where we left off last season.

I'm not liking this "smashmouth" .....yet.

There's just something about being down 20 to the Blazers at the end of 3 that disgusts me.

give them time man, chemistry is something that's built over time. there's a new coach and new players to adjust to for our core. I see the potential so i'm not going to hang myself just yet.

We have no option but to give them time. I'm just hoping they're using that time wisely.

I can still be disgusted, right?

Teams like Detroit, Portland, Philly, Sacramento, Charlotte look better.

I think it's time to pull the plug and play the younger guys, so I'm talking about Quincy Miller, Fournier, Hamilton. I don't see any point in giving Miller, Nate, Foye, Randolph minutes to begin with.

And if there's a draft to get a low pick in, it's the 2014 one.

I disagree to an extent. I think Nate definitely needs the minutes, along with Foye. Miller and Randolph, not so much. Our core need to gel with the new guys and vice versa. i say stick with it, dont even think about tanking and keep the positive, must win attitude. I can stomach losses right now but come mid season i may be singing a different tune.

I was in attendance tonight. The crowd was awful, seemed like the stadium was half empty at tip-off.

Sitting there at the the end of the 3rd quarter, I was trying to come with a single positive takeaway, and I couldn't do it. So much bad, not much good.

We just have to be patient through this transition. I do think having at least one of Chandler/Gallinari back will make a big difference.

Just a quick question guys, is there any particular reason Manimal is coming off the bench? Dude's a beast, seems like he should be getting more than 24 minutes on the court.

Simple reason being that he plays better with Mozgov than with McGee.

Would not be surprised if he ends up starting soon with McGee going to the bench.

well its also because he is coming back from injury and Shaw said he would bring him back slowly. He also mentioned as soon as he feels he is ready he will be in the starting lineup.

Which should tell McGee he's got a window to officially earn the starting position. I would rather Faried start, and if that means Mozzy starts then so be it.
