At least those games were close.

Nothing wrong with having a different opinion - as long as it's done respectfully. It'd be lame if we all agreed on everything :)

defense has forced the ball out of cade's hands. gotta get this lead down to 5 or less before he realizes he's going to have to do everything himself bc his teammates suck

Sorry Hal, but it think Joe is just fortunate to have this talented of a team. Any coach would have this type of success record-wise if they were blessed with this amount of talent.

If you read this thread you'd realize we have the worst players in the world of all time.

I trust AL in big games.. He somehow finds a way to play young.. But then there are these type of games where he looks so slow and old.. I wish our coach would make that adjustment and play one of those young biggs.. But he just rides his rotation like he cannot make a change..

I know it's only a small sample size and I know it's only the middle of season 2 for him, but winning % in the regular season counts for naught when you are a title contender. Really it comes down to title or bust
