Glad we got the win, two very tough wins back to back against two top east teams...

But we have to figure out the lineup for crunch time because we arent going to get a closer in the middle of the season.

I’d just like them to learn how to box out free throws...it feels like at the end of game they forget how to do so

Pelicans win 4 in a row! Only 3.5 games out of the 8th spot in the West. Zion's back in a week or two! Brandon Ingram wins Western Conference Player of the Week! Lonzo hits 7 threes in one game! Derrick Favors's return has really ignited this team's defense and rebounding. I'm excited again!

Tanking is like taking a Greyhound bus cross-country. Sure, it may eventually get you where you want to go, but it’s messy and unpleasant and uncomfortable, it stinks, the entire time you’ll be wishing you weren’t there, and not everybody along for the ride is going to make it to the end. - Quote stolen from Deadspin

Lost against the Wizards.. we showed up flat.. we usually take care of business against teams we are supposed to beat..

i expected to win 2 out of the last 3 and i thought it would come in a split from either a pacers or 76ers win and then a win at washinngton... instead we got the better version of the 3 games. So o well.. time for the team to go home to their families, enjoy new years festivities, and come back ready for another successful month.

Chris Paul is having a fantastic season now that he doesn’t have to watch James Harden draw fouls anymore.

Good for him.

I was reading an article about the possibility K.A.T gets traded. I'm not sure how big that possibility is, but do you guys think he would be a good move for this team? Also wonder what we could possibly even give up that wouldnt ruin our chemistry.

Trading for KAT would be the ultimate slap in the face to Jimmy. I’m pretty sure Jimmy hates him as a teammate.

Really? I didnt know they had that history. That sucks.

I mainly only follow Miami other than this thread and its mish mash of fans.

Last season, the Butler/KAT story dominated the media for a good month.

I'll be honest that I barely followed last season at all.

I hate when the Heat get beat by lousy teams. It seriously pisses me off.

Kevin Love told Cavs gm Koby Altman that he’s disgusted with the entire Cavs organization according to Shams Charania.

Some of the things that has been reported of Love is a little bit crazy to me. Always seemed like a down to earth cool dude. Him yelling to his GM “keep fining me i got lots of money” is poor taste and out of character of him, or maybe it is his character.

I don’t blame him for being frustrated. Him taking the ball from Sexton and launching the ball at his teammate was hilarious. I don’t think I’ve ever seen that.

I hope he gets out of there for his own sanity.

Who put a gun to Kevin Love’s head when he signed a 30 million per season extension on a rebuilding team? He could have taken less and gone to a playoff team.. he opted to take the money from a team desperate to have some sort of marginal all star talent.

Jimmy was about to throw the right cross with his first instinct lol.
