    To really help complete this team they need a true PF. Tucker is too small and can't keep bigs off the boards when Capela is caught out on the perimeter.

    Sorry if this is a dumb question, but is there an easier way to view this thread that doesn't require refreshing constantly to see replies?

    When CP3 comes back he needs to take a page out of Austin's book and let it fly. There will rarely be a better shot. CP3 will ignore wide open looks to pass to other people.

    To be fair, some might have played their hearts out, but they just aren't good enough. There is just so much room for improvement, from the coaches to each and every player. A lot of people had a false sense of us being really good with that winning streak against bad and mediocre teams. Sure, anyone can win when they play a great game on offense and defense. Our defense didnt show up until the second half and our offense tried to show up the second half, but justmwasntmgood enough. Every team we played this year that was good beat us at least once, with the exception of Dallas, who isnt that impressive. We didn't have a lot of dominating wins. I think we will be better next year obviously, but it didn't make this loss any less pathetic or embarrassing,

    If they'd just play MCW we'd be in control of this game.

    I thought they were going to stop switching with Capella.

    I think Harden is fine with Rivers scoring.

    Oh so now the refs look to see if a player is running out of bounds.
