:lol: So funny because they popped into my head when I was looking for good luck charm because I was thinking "model with santa hat" so I googled Mean Girls Santa or Christmas and then thought...maybe I shouldn't post a pic of high school girls (though obviously they were much older in real life). Love that movie though.

:oops: 21 pts on 30 shots.

The +/- probably has something to do with the bench playing more with Len/Bender too but those shots/points are ugly.

Hopefully the last game this unit ever starts. They just can't score.

Our starting lineup's offense is non-existent. 1 point in 4 minutes.

Call a foul on Bender for the same thing that was a no call for TJ on the other end, okay.

They came prepared for our new handoff offense this time. We should run more p&r against Towns.
