1. We wasted 10 important seconds by not following shows a lack of awereness by our players.

2. Not a bad lost, CLeavlend is a solid team, we took them to the wire with adverse refs and no KG we would have one this we just let them get too many rebounds.

Well Rondo gets the ball stripped, should have come up with that rebound, and then our vets act like clueless rookies and don't bother fouling when the shot clock is reset with 24 seconds left.

The Cavs made the effort on D in the last minutes to win it.

What the hell was Rondo doing? He just had turned the ball over a zillion times??

Letting that go off the clock is looking even worse right now. 16.9 looks a lot better than 6.9. Quick 3 and a foul is our only chance.

I hate the Cavs... and the NBA golden boy James...but you cant win if you trade baskets... and you would've thought this team would know better...

well, hell of a game even though we couldn't finish it off.

Cans announcers are decent, compared to most announcers.

Lol!!! Did you guys see Z PUSH Rondo into Posey on the baseline dunk by Newble?? And the refs just swallowed their whistles...

You think we'll lose to the Clippers at home? We beat Dallas without KG and played Orlando and Cleveland incredibly tough on the road.

We should be able to handle the Clippers.

The refs in the second half were ridiculous. There were so many little fauls called against us in the third that is was just unwatchable...

Moral victory*



Every game we lose that is close w/o KG is a moral victory

Oh, gosh. Another close loss. That's our 3rd loss by 3 points or less in the last 2 weeks. It's just disappointing.

posey had perhaps his worst game of the year and Pierce didn't come to play either. too bad because this could have been a nice win. just too many mistakes all game long. Not getting the rebounds and we were a step slow to the ball all night. plus some major home cooking by the refs tonight

Good game.


That wasn't home cooking, that was a stupid young ref who is trying to get "respect"
