It's been so long I've forgotten what a win feels like. I literally can't even fathom our team in its current state somehow outplaying another team and scoring more points. Like, the idea of it just seems absurd.

I've heard it through the grapevine..NBA gods have already designated Los Angeles LAKERS as NBA Champions in near future. The destiny is real. TRUST ME.

I cannot fathom the Pistons being 2-23, that is insane

then again one of their wins is against us, which makes sense

I won nearly $500 from a $10 bet today. Knew the Spurs had this one and picked all their stat getters as well.

Nice, congratulations!

I'm happy for the Spurs players that their losing streak is over. Hopefully for the Pistons players and fans, theirs does soon, too.

Seriously. I can't imagine what hypothetical situation would have to happen for us to be able to pull this off. We look like a G League team out there at this point. It's so depressing.

The funny thing is that all of the Spurs 4 wins are against teams that have winning records (Lakers, Rockets, and Suns twice). Zero wins against losing teams although they haven't play alot of them.

Monty Williams is the Kenny Payne of the NBA. Another reason you don't pay coaches like that.

You can, just have to be more proven than Monty Williams was

Just curious at what point does Detroit's GM get fired? Monty just got there but their GM has been there 3 years now. It's one thing to be bad and rebuild with youth but they haven't even won at least 25 games since he's been there. It's very very hard to not win at least 25 games in the Eastern conference for that long.

My guess is something major happens one way or the other between now and their next home game on Thursday. Ive seen my share of crappy teams and it’s hard to ignore how dejected those guys looked last night.

I was going to bring this up.

All of our wins have come against good teams (Rockets, Suns twice and Lakers). :lol:
Go figure!

We even started off at 3-2 for the season. Been like that for the past few seasons. Start off good and then pffft the rest of the years.

Most of the fans are rooting for it at this point but the owner is nowhere to be seen
