    I know I'm on a roll, but I'm pretty pissed. Here's another fun fact. Jalen only had one rebound, no assists, and he led the team in turnovers. How can that lazy mother****er get one rebound in 30 minutes? How is that even possible? Our starting guards combined for two rebounds all game. That's weak. That's some weak, soft basketball right there!

    They werent rebuilding they were just bad. They had allstars. Last year was their only 22 win season before that it was 34 or more games and most of us here would kill for that this year.

    Our offense seems so helter skelter.

    He has all the signs of a "chucker". Chuckers don't play D. Chuckers don't make the appropriate pass because they only see the game through their eyes. Chuckers just gonna chuck. There might be a couple of 40 point games but he'll put many, many poor shooting games in-between.

    This season is going to be so much worse than I hoped - no expected.

    Udoka - worst game so far out of 5?

    I feel he will use that quote a few more times.

    Ditto

    Spurs look good. We are losing another one Friday. Guarantee it.

    We are lazy and get pushed out for rebounds. We will lose by 20

    Takes time to unlearn habits of old and improve. One short summer and pre-season isn't enough time to see immediate results.

    Last year, when it was clear Silas was on his way out, Stone should have got rid of Silas at the all star break. At least then, a new coaching regime would've had a half season head start.

    This team will definitely improve; just takes time to climb out of the gutter.

    It would be awesome if the spurs lost tonight somehow then lost to us, god that would make up for the 30 point loss.

    When people spend the whole offseason talking about franchise players and projecting 2x last season's win totals, I wait for these humbling moments to restore equilibrium.

    Just didn't realize it would come this quickly.

    Spurs do look good but the Mavs are absolutely terrible defensively so it's not exactly hard to look good against them.

    You have to start looking at common denominators. What are the constants throughout all these piles of ****? Hmmm......

    I didn't catch the game.
    I like Amen Thompson. I don't expect him to be the reason for this loss, but players have bad games, and learning experiences.
    What happened here?
    -34 in 21 minutes has some cause.
