Pissed. It is what it is. Can't play that sloppy for the majority of the game. If we hit our free throws, we win.

We got jobbed by the officials but played so poorly I don’t care. This team doesn’t need to think they can squeak out a win with such a pathetic performance.

Was Dre in the game on the final defensive possession?

I don't think so but I could be wrong. Don't think Adams was in either.

Robbed. Completely robbed.

I have no words for how bad that decision was. The baseline ref had a clear view from 2 feet away yet called nothing.

That crew deserves to be banned for life.

These damn refs man. I swear its like amateur hour out there almost every night. :banghead:

I love the fight the team showed to come back from such a deficit. Wish Russ could have converted just 1 more free throw down the stretch and Carmelo didn't run into the lane to get a lane violation, but.....

The offense was really spotty at times tonight, but the defense didn't fall off even without PG. Middleton went off for way too many points though.

Bring on Dallas. Its payback time for the last meeting.

Positive though: Melo didn't chuck like he did in the Brooklyn game. He actually kept within his new role even without PG there.

-No Paul George
-Down 20 at one point
-Westbrook taking horrible 3's
-Missed 5 FT's in the last 3 minutes
-Where was Steven on the last play?

and we still had a chance to win. Frustrating, but it could have all been avoided.

Can't wait for the apology from the league :banghead:

Why? He’s our best defender and we don’t put him out there for a defensive stop?

It was Russ, Felton, Huestis, Melo, and Grant on the floor. Another thing that pisses me off is that Billy was nowhere in sight. He should have been tearing that ref a new one. Didn't even seen to care. You have Melo out there, but the guy who is supposed to lead these guys shows no emotion? Gutless, and that was a terrible lineup.

But... why was Melo out there instead of Adams?
