The way Kendra consistently stumbles on her words is really crazy to watch. It's literally almost every time she speaks she stumbles on her words.

Suggs hit four threes, (a few dumb turnovers), had three steals, 6 assists, held Maxey to a tough night..

But -10. Guess he was bad.

I haven't been in this thread the whole night. Somebody complained about Carter not being able to cover Maxey and Goga did no better. Yet, nobody says anything about that. Where was anyone pointing THAT out?


WCJ needed 10 extra minutes of play to match what Goga did in 20, but WCJ cost us a 7 point lead in the process. Why aren’t you talking about THAT?


The heck? I like how he was in the lineup that brought it up to 8 points. Nobody says anything when hes guarding perimeter players well/blocking shots during that stretch.

Yet, he was also the cause of its downfall when the TEAM couldn't convert down the stretch (as he barely touches the ball) and blew assignments in coverage. Granted he did make mistakes but to put that ALL on him when he initially helped the lead is absolutely asinine.

Phoenix will be on a b2b, and Durant will be out. So we'll have a good chance to get out 14th or 15th straight game at home on Sunday. I remember we won the 3 against the Cavs last season in the playoffs at home. I think our last loss was either the Kings or Clippers.

Just standard from him.

The team was 10 points worse when he was on the court. Franz and the 2nd unit created a 10 point lead in the 4th and when Suggs (and KCP) came back in it was erased.

But hey if you want to count a 10 point loss as win go right ahead.

I mean so am I.... But she is standing giving Franz an interview. I want to hear what he has to say and in turn hear her asking the questions...

Suggs/KCP combine for 8 steals.

Maxey/McCain 4 turnovers apiece.

Held Maxey to 16, guy is an all star 25 5 and 5 and held him too


When you have guard defense and no where for them to go if they get to the paint (goga), thats what happens.


Well yea obviously

This trade wasn't some conspiracy - it was just a GM wanting AD bad enough where in most people's eyes he overpaid by a long shot to get him.

It means they were on the court for one bad run.

If you don't think KCP and Suggs were causing havoc with 9 steals and their 5 threes didn't help, then I can't change your mind!

Back to back on the road, you take these no matter the opponent. Last night sucked, but realistically it's whatever. We played our worst game in weeks and we lost. Okay, on to the next one. Which was this game tonight, and we won. We can't ask for sheer perfection right now. All we wanted in Paolo's absence was .500 ball, but what we've done has been remarkable.
11/18/2017 - I have officially disowned Nikola Vucevic and branded him a loser.

- Skal Labissiere was my guy in 2016 pre-trade. Whoops, but I still believe.
- Malik Monk was my guy in 2017. Whoops(?)
- Mo Bamba was my guy in 2018. TBD.

It's one of those things where stats don't match the eye test. He was good

Who’s putting it ALL on him? He’s not good enough to warrant significant blame in the first place.
