Wow. I knew he didn't get any minutes last night in a loss, but that's just crazy. Hope he's ok.

I always found it interesting that one of our "insiders" referred to Gerald as a "knucklehead."

Green played well for us, but there is no denying that he isn't the sharpest tool in the shed.

I guess that depends on your definition. He is not a high IQ player. But I usually reserve the term "knucklehead" for players who do ill-advised, selfish, immature things like ignore rules, complain about the fans etc.

good to see GS up 15 on the clips

Also good to see the Spurs and OKC lose to eastern conference teams. Was REALLY hoping Orlando could survive and take it against Houston though...went into OT. Fournier, Dipo and Gordon balling tonight.

Clippers with a one point lead heading into the 4th. Could this be the first game Warriors lose all season?

Nope CP3 is his usual choke job.

LAC probably better off differing to Paul Pierce for those clutch shots than CP3.

Proud that he and Gerald Green are not on our team anymore.

Stick to Durant & Westbrook like paper and glue and we can win.

Blazers are about to be 4-2 and only two losses came against the mighty Suns.

What the hell is wrong with the Grizzlies? Just tuned in and they're getting spanked.

I was thinking our wins against Portland weren't that impressive since I didn't think they were good. Well, we're the only ones to beat them.

They rely heavily on their defense which doesn't work well in today's game. Teams that could shoot 3's will bury the Grizzlies on any given night and the only way Grizz have a shot is if they play stellar defense and grind it out. It might have worked 3 years ago but this season they're getting hammered. Poor Grizz cause I like teams that play tough grind it out defense cause not many teams do that anymore but 99% of the teams don;t play that way anymore so Grizz are in trouble and in need of offensive players.

Well 3 of their wins are against teams that will likely be in the playoffs (Pelicans, Grizzlies, Jazz). Pels 0-4 start doesn't concern me its still early and they should turn it around. No way Grizzlies miss playoffs and I've heard nothing but good comments about the jazz the past few seasons and this year they might be in.

It looks like Portland might just go 79-3, appears Suns are the Blazers only kryptonite.

SunsRback4Good · Post #1439 » by **SunsRback4Good** » Fri Nov 6, 2015 6:02 am

And the Grizzlies are our kryptonite and every time we face them we barely crack 90 points. If Chandler/Len could rebound nicely we might win one game. lol

SunsRback4Good · Post #1440 » by **SunsRback4Good** » Fri Nov 6, 2015 6:05 am

Loos like Grizzlies will lose 3 games by a combined of 99 points. That might be top 5 worst 3 game losses of all time.
