    I have never hated a team I love as much as this one. So, so, so, ugly.

    At least our bench is not getting outscored by Bronnie tonight…..oh wait, they each have zero points.

    Reaves drives for back to back layups... we need bigs that intimidate down low... like spurs have in Wemby... or anywhere close to that...

    I knew we lost this series the minute we got down 0-3. I just wanted us to fight hard and we did, until tonight. Very disappointed in how pathetic we've looked in this game. I hope we can at least show some fight in the 4th quarter and make them sweat a little bit.

    I'd consider this a win if we only lose by 10 in the end

    2015 Game 6 Corey Brewer isn't walking through those doors, unfortunately.

    I blame Stone for Silas and all this offensive fun.

    What are the chances one of the power dancers has a jump shot? They're definitely less b**** than our current players and coach

    It won't matter if Amen doesn't develop an outside shot.

    Amen lack of consistent jumper hinders any offensive game plan

    Shades of the 2013 series, where we came back 3-2 vs OKC with a young squad and lost in game 6.

    With the youngest starting 5 to win a game in playoff history, it becomes a lot more palatable, even if we don’t have a James Hardenesque star.

    Amen has shown me a LOT and so has Jabari. I’ll take it.

    The Harden no show vs the Spurs was worse.

    When I sliced off the tip of my finger today, I slathered it in hemorrhoid cream thinking it was neosporin. Threw a bandaid on top and wore that **** all day long. I’m pretty sure that’s not good, but it was still better than this game has been.
