OJ Mayo, Courtney Lee, Eric Gordon, Nic Batum, Marco Belinelli, even Randy Foye (yes, if we have to).

We need to do something ASAP. I don't want Kahn handing out another 4 yr 18-20 million dollar deal to a role player that should be coming off the bench. I can't watch these same wings next season.

Brutal game blowing a 20 pt lead against the Warriors is the nadir of the season so far and there's still a few games left. Sometimes it takes a little while for the true effects of an injury to filter down and that's what it looked like out there tonight with no creativity or crispness on the offensive end, especially when it got down to the wire.

Yep. As Klomp implied, some real basketball is to be seen there.


I watched that game instead and I'm happy I did. Saved me a lot of frustration. I think i'll just try and black this game out as much as possible, It's going to be a struggle to convince myself to watch ANY more games. Tasting success earlier in the season and then going back to the garbage we've seen in the last few seasons is just so brutal to watch.

It's at the point where this team doesn't even have to get a starting calibre wing; a decent backup would be leaps and bounds above what they're trotting out there now

I know everybody here is in awe with Love and Pek but people must admit that they are getting killed by penetrating guards far too often.

The best thing that happened last night was the crowd booing the team. Need more of that and Taylor needs to hear it and put pressure on Kahn to get a couple NBA-caliber wing players on the team. That performance was totally unacceptable. We all know that the team has been decimated by injuries but there is no excuse for any team to just quit and that is what this team is doing right now.

Why did Pek get only 1 shot in the second half ? What happened ?

all i know is that our defense was solid and rotations were money when Rubio was still alive. Thats seriously all i know, don't ask me anything else.

When Barea is getting owned by Charles Jenkins it puts a lot of pressure on Love and a real banged up Pekovic. It wasn't that much of a problem when Pekovic was able to rotate and when Rubio was guarding PG's.

I haven't been able to watch games in weeks due to work but it sucks to see the season going down like this.

We simply had far too many injuries. Rubio,Pek, Beas, Barea and now Rid. Other than Love only the scrubs don't get injured all season long. :dontknow:

Our defense is the number 1 reason we lose games, bar none. That's what rubio brought us, that's what we needed.
