I never got this line of reasoning. When you are trying to build a culture no game is meaningless. This is the kind of mindset that only perennial losers adopt. From an organization standpoint we are trying to rebuild. But for the players in that locker room, we are trying to compete and win games. When we lose it should sting. because that is the only way or young guys will improve as much as possible. As soon as this mindset develops within an organization, everything else goes with it. Players stop taking practice seriously. They stop preparing as hard as they should.



Did you see the game! Beal damn near snapped his ankle on one play in the 1st half. How long you think hes going to play in the season playing 40 per. Jesus Christ people

No need for no long winded posts either.

We haven't had a lot of games lately. The only back to back was in October.

They knew they had 2 days off after the the game so why not play Beal late in a game they had a chance to win?

You don't have to make a 500 letter post to make a point. I'm out.

Why the hell have we played so few games compared to some other teams? Teams like the Blazers & Warriors have already played 4 more games than we have. I feel like the 2016 season started a similar way as well.
