This team is so eager to find its groove. I'm so proud.

Offense is so difficult to come by with these crazy drives and bad passes.

What’s more disgusting, our offense or the Loves jersey patch?

The Mavs aren't even bleeping trying. Doncic is out...they're done.

And we've still trailed the entire game despite being at home.

I’m not even mad. It’s reached the point that it’s funny.

trey burke one of numerous point guards playing for league minimum or close to it who would have been acceptable upgrades over raymond felton comparable to dennis schroder. thunder could have stretched melo, saved their pick, and used the difference on something else perhaps with that pick attached.
