Sorry, but if you get held to two points for THREE quarters, you sucked. I thought he was going to go for 30+ easy, and he ends up with a measly 14. Franchise players don't lay an egg like that.

Arroyo played tonight, so lets blame the loss on him. Who's with me?

No seriously, when it's all said and done, I was hoping for us to go 3-1 over this four game stretch...and so far, we're 2-1, with our sole loss coming against a team we've already beaten twice in a row this month. So, if we can win the next one, I'll definitely be satisfied.

Still, it's disheartening that we keep winning a couple in a row and then totally get pwned, as opposed to losing close ones.

The funniest thing about this game to me is that on the pre-game show, Jameer was interviewed and he said he was looking to pick up his defense. Hilarious!!

I'll leave it to you to start the 'Dwight Sucks' thread. I'll stay on the band wagon though.

Meh. I'm just gonna look at this like a crap effort on a back-to-back. It happens. We'll get over it.

No need for the hate, we'll win a game.

Edit: Maybe.

Nobody thinks he sucks, but he was not aggressive at all tonight and missed a ton of point blank looks.

Yep, but I played two games in NBA live tonight (before the game) and I really got my arse beaten up, so that was really a sign I should have take taken seriously and shouldn't have started watching the game waiting for a win.
It's EA's fault.

Still, this was just one of those nights... nothing went right. We'll bounce back.

NBA Live sucks though. It used to be cool back in the '90s, though.
