Im hoping they did something at half, but the broadcast didn't show anything.
 
You can definitely tell there are more people in the arena tonight.
 
Everyone trying to be hero instead of getting better shot. Sigh.
 
Another embarrassment

Fire Chauncey

Trade everybody
 
Hard shooting night and not enough ball movement.
 
Maybe the referees were a little better in this game.
The last time we played Detroit Ptld went to the free thow line only 5 times. They made 3 of 5
Detroit went to the free throw line 22 times & made 19.

This was back on Jan 6th
I remember being completely irate at the refs
 
That was a tough one. I at least got to touch the game ball. First time ever. Only game I bought tix to this season too. Gotta say 100 level is nice, but the “fans”…my goodness. Was cool to see players up close, but surrounded by douchebags (none of ya’ll of course..wink, wink) is not my cup of tea. Maybe I am just getting old. Turned 40 and now am a curmudgeon? Whatever. Rip city.

That ship sailed a long time ago. It’s clear the team is staying with the Allen family. She loves owning the team it’s been nearly 10 years..

This team will be sold dude. She isn't even the owner, she's the goddamn executer of the trust. There's no way for her to pass it down to her children. This is just her and Bert playing with Paul's shit a helluva lot longer than they were supposed to and we get to deal with the shitty consequences of that.

I understand she’s the executor of the trust shit even the nba has a rule that trusts can’t own a team for long. But it’s been nearly 10 years at this point. She clearly has found a loop hole to keep the team in her family.

Silver could have easily exercised the rule and said it’s been nearly a decade that’s plenty of time to sell.

At some point, “letting the process play out” turns into “dragging it out.” The question is whether the NBA feels that time has already come—or if they’re willing to wait a few more years before drawing a line in the sand.

I don't think the NBA has any problem with letting this run to 20 years or more...

I don't think the league has a problem with it either. I was just saying this team isn't staying in that family for good. The will is just too explicit about the team having to be sold at some point and that money going to charity.
 
Grant and ant playing with no Deni is a recipe for a loss.

And Shaedon having foul issues early, and looking timid and uninterested (for stretches) didn't help either.

There are some good fans in the 100's and 200's (at least last times I went and had seats in those sections), but I think a lot of them either aged out, died, or were priced out.

On the one hand, I'd rather the crowd be loud and vocal, but on the other hand Im fine watching the games from home so I don't have to deal with loud, drunk and vocal fans.
