New coach or new players. Anything less is unacceptable.

We need Billy gone, that was a **** show and ultimately he's responsible for it. The fact he didn't bench Westbrook after his performance in the 2nd quarter is disgusting

Why did Russ feel the need to force things with a commanding lead in the 2nd quarter?

We need to make an aggressive move to get the Brooklyn pick from the Cavs.

When your best player is the point guard and you're up 23, the point guard deserves 100% blame for the loss. Billy is terrible, we all agree. But terrible or not, this team is up double digits every game and the point guard constantly calls his own number and does dumb ****. Stop blaming Billy to excust the real culprit

All year long he's done this stupid ****. How about they were down 1 in the 4th and back to back bonehead shots?

Trash. That last inbound play says it all. Westbrook with the low IQ play to try and get a foul. 5 for 22. Billy needs to go too. Its incredible how dumb this team is.

Agreed.

This is the most bipolar team of all time. Get up 23 points then proceed to lose by 3.
Now they have to beat NO just to get back to .500 just to go below .500 against GS.

Russ or should we say Baron played like an absolute moron on all of his pull-up 3s. PG played like an idiot driving to the rim and pulling up for jumpers at random. Lastly, Melo pulled his usual iso post-up game which led to the usual results down the stretch.

Our "big three" needs a new more appropriate nickname. How about the Three Stooges?

Unacceptable reffing. Absolutely atrocious. Knew it was a 3 when they showed that angle.

Losses suck, but this was against a really good team (even without Kawhi). You can tell OKC was a way more talented team though, they just need to figure out a way to play winning basketball for 48 minutes a game. Talent wise, they really are capable of becoming contenders. It took the Miami Heat a while to figure it out too.

Our top three players are all boneheads. The coach is a bonehead. I don't know if they can hit their potential with those mitigating factors. We shall see.

Yup, refs went by the side angle instead and his black shoes matched the color of the line so they assumed it was a 2

Well, at some point they will have to ask themselves what they are doing here, and what they want to achieve.

We basically need two things anyway
1) Russ being Russ
2) Coaching change
