5 or 6 buzzer beater losses, all those close games blown, IT, Dragic, Plumlee, and Ennis gone for like nothing. We are playing Barron and Seth Curry our D-league scrubs this late in the season


Yeah, we definitely took a few steps backwards but I'm relying on mcdonough to do some serious work in the off season and make us relevant going into the next season.

Maybe but he was talking about the playoffs still being in reach so I'm not sure he's really accepted the new reality of this team. I still like our future but it's hard to like our "present".


Our future rides on McDuh turning water into wine to show for his stockpiling of "assets". Not a sure bet


I think it turns more on Len's ankles. If he's eventually good to go, he'll be the anchor we build around. It will be a lot easier to put players next to a quality center than it will be to find one.

I hate the "hour early than usual" games. Missed the first 15 minutes and now seeing Curry, Green and Barron on the floor.

Tucker
Barron
Seth Curry
Green
Mook Morris

I think we can win a couple of championships with this core! /sarcasm

The worst part is the games have been unwatchable on top of it. I don't remember any game this season where we had the refs on our side.

At one point we had like a 15 game lead on Utah and after tonight it be 3.

This is just unwatchable. Is this an NBA or D-League?

I remember early on in the season we beat the Spurs are home and the game was watchable and exciting but we haven't had many of those games afterwards.

We've finally stumbled across the ideal tanking lineup. Hopefully we commit to it going forward

The Suns thought they would show up and win this game. It doesn't work that way and you got to put in the effort otherwise the worst team in the NBA will win.

Suns with 5 second violation on the inbound pass. We can't do a f'n thing right it seems. Soooo many turnovers.

The talent differential between the two rosters isnt as big as we would like to think.

Bled just always to seem to be in a rush and forces things. Its like he wants every possession to be a fast break/transition cauz he knows how terrible our halfcourt offense is

You know it's bad when you can't even keep up with a team that is pretty much actively tanking...and the only good player that they were playing got injured.

I made that point earlier in this thread. If Bargnani is playing like the Bargnani of old, I'm not sure we're even better than them on paper.
