Last day of the month, first win in a while?

Hoping that vulnerable clarity shines through tomorrow

Let’s go Heat!

I'm here for the win, but, man, it's tough. Kings play great basketball.

Beyond the X's and O's - These MFs better bring the fire this game, chit is getting embarrassing.

After that, I need Spo to get his act together and play a defensive rotation that makes some sense.

I'd play them both. I hate being small all the time. Highsmith is legit on D, Jovic legit makes the offense flow. I think Jovic's size, despite him looking raw on defense, is making a difference.

He'll I'd give Orlando Robinson minutes too.

Love, Martin and Rich can chill. I rather play Highsmith, Jovic and Robinson.

Rich was one of the lone bright spots last game out. Love definitely needs to go in the deep freeze for a bit. Caleb might need to chill until the deadline passes. Bro is all over the place.

I have retired the booty posts due to responses that have called them misogynistic, and I respect that critique. But we need new charms, specifically ones that don't objectify women-- any ideas before I start posting poetry in here?

Spoiler:
That's objectifying but not misogyny. You can post pretty women. Just post the ones that are clothed in more than just bathing suits and underwear twerking. Lots of people view this site from work, so think about what would be appropriate vs. inappropriate in a work setting and worry less about whether or not you have a dislike of, contempt for, or ingrained prejudice against women (you don't, and posting the pictures you used to in the past don't affirm that either). Objectification is done by both sexes. But we're civilized so there's a time and place for those things and when you break that inappropriatetly, it looks perverted when men do it and looks like gold-diggers when women do it.


Anyway, I hope we finally end the losing streak.

Make it or break it Night folks, losing today will be something we may not recover from this season, specially after the team coming together to find a common ground and be vulnerable about what the cusp of their issues are.

Things to look for tonight:
The high dollar guys coming and showing they came to play and show they can play together.
Need to see Rozier be aggressive and involved in more pick and rolls with Bam, Herro, Jimmy.
Need to see Herro continue to shoot more threes, keep the shot diet 70%+ at the three point line, and or take it to the hole in an opening, completely go away from the midrange unless its a bail out shot with the clock coming down.
Need to see Bam being aggressive, get to the line and get foul calls, only use the Middy sporadically as needed if completely open no fading needed.
Need to see Jimmy take charge, use the angles, get the line, cut to the basket aggressively, create for others, and for the love of gawd play defense.
Need to see JJJ start to get some semblance of a game again, he is coming back from injury and has looked rusty as a nail, hopefully he gets his pep in his step back, his playmaking is needed.
Caleb, Highsmith, JRich, your not playmakers and shotmakers, use all your energy on defense 100% and hit your 3pt's on the corners when they present themselves, don't do anything extra, stick to those basics.
Kevin Love, Just rebound, box out, and hit your threes, hold those non Bam minutes as hard as you can.
Duncan, recover stay safe, get back healthy, well be waiting for you unless your traded as soon as your coming off your concussion protocol.

Read on Twitter


Like I figured it would go with Spo, he is dissecting this one thorn at a time, he wants to see them make strides on defense. Outside of that he doesn't care about the offense he will work on those kinks later. Its about execution and attention to detail on the defensive side tonight. A stress test of sorts.

For a long time it gave me nightmares,witnessing an injustice like that.It’s a constant reminder of just how unfair this world can be.I can still hear them taunting him, Silly Rabbit tricks are for kids.I mean why couldn’t they just give him some cereal?
