Are we still trotting Ferguson out there? If we are, this is a loss.

Chris Webber pretty much saying that we can’t just flip a switch and the roster needs to be addressed.

First team to make a three wins.
“If you're getting stops and you're making threes and the other team's not scoring, that's when you're going to see a huge point difference there,” coach Billy Donovan said.

Oh God, we're into the flip a switch narrative after three games and two without Westbrook?

doesn't matter how the lineup tonight does, giving patrick patterson only one start with russell westbrook starting is idiotic. but we know that our lineup choices are all about who is in the clique and grant is in the clique.

Does the coaching staff tell Ferguson to stand in the corner and if he happens to get the ball, pass it as soon as possible?
