    My like was for the part above, not below. I trust in Gordon and never expected him to have some great year when he's coming off a surgery that happened during the season. High expectations like this below is ignant in my opinion.

    Great boring win but 31% from 3 has to improve.

    Great win, hopefully Russ can get a few games in before the playoffs start. I would really like to avoid the Thunder in the first round but looking more and more like that's how it's going to shake out.

    Austin Rivers is making Eric Gordon obsolete.

    Defense in 2nd and 3rd quarter was absurdly good.

    But gave up 41 in 4th.

    Bench needs to take pride in D.

    Damn I totally forgot about that. I don't mean that as a turn of phrase. Like, I literally forgot we all used to hate him. Amazing how things have changed.

    Roco needs to get his rhythm back most of his 3's I watch that he takes is contested threes and PJ has the most open looks from 3's that he is badly missing

    LOL MDA is losing sleep thinking how he can trim the 9-deep team into a 7-man rotation.
