A rare game against a bottom tier team in an otherwise absolutely brutal December/January schedule.

This really is one we have to take, along with the game at Orlando on the 30th.

I don't know that I've ever seen a more brutal two months than what we have in December and January. A glance at January shows that it's just as bad as December, really.

Being down so early doesnt bother me...I'm not one of those types that gets upset and the world is ending anytime a team makes a run BUT....only being able to put up 21 in the quarter is concerning. This team is just so awful offensively, it really blows my mind.

41 year old Vince Carter is better than most of our roster

I'm not trying to sound like a broken record and I'm far from the fire Casey bandwagon or anything but dude is really getting on my nerves. I hate his rotations. I hate his offense. A game like this should be a great opportunity to try to get guys like Reggie and Luke off but they've been glued to the bench. Like cmon man...

This team just needs John Wall and they'd be a top contender in the East.

ok this team needs to tank. That Blake trade was so stupid. All it does is give us a couple extra wins. We may even miss the playoffs.

Trying to run a Rockets/James Harden horrible offense without James Harden talent. So tired of seeing 4 guys sit and freakin watch.
