[riverman]

Watch this guys tomorrow, no energy on a back to back and gets blown out by the Kings

stop.....buzzkill

 

[Natebishop3]

Man.... we desperately need a bench.

18 points off the bench tonight. That's just brutal.

 

[Lukee]

oh well. awful, but still win.

 

[julius]

I think this team is at their best with Maurice starting, as long as it's the Maurice who plays like he gives a shit.

 

[kingslayer]

Nurk and Hark saved us tonight.

Man.... we desperately need a bench.

18 points off the bench tonight. That's just brutal.

What?

Dame and CJ are a combine 13 for 40 and not even looking at teammates while taking such poor shots.

That, and Dame's complete inability to get around any of Dwight's screens is why we are in this shit.

 

[TBpup]

Nurk with 3 HUGE blocks late to save this.

 

[riverman]

This season just says we've got a really young roster...there's plenty to enjoy..

 

[illmatic99]

Nurk and Hark saved us tonight.

Absolute truth.

 

[LayneStaley]

Remember a couple weeks ago when some of you thought it was blasphemous for me to say Kemba was better than CJ? Lol

 

[AFully22]

Nurk was the second best player on the court tonight. Shout out Nurk

 

[illmatic99]

Let's see if Dame acknowledges his shit game.

 

[riverman]

Fun game! 30 wins! finally!

 

[Jon]

I think we are 5-0 when dame has that weird haircut...

 

[TBpup]

Exactly. Bench 12-19 outside of another guard chucker in Shabazz. Tough to score a lot of points when the guards won't give up the ball.

 

[Scalma]

Nurk outplays another traditional center. Standard.

 

[Nikolokolus]

This season just says we've got a really young roster...there's plenty to enjoy..

What is this, Stockholm Syndrome?

 

[riverman]

Nurk...24 and 14 with 4 blocks.....he's a keeper

 

[noknobs]

I thought that was really good defense down the stretch of OT, and I think that's largely due to not having to pay the luxury tax.

 

[Lukee]

Aminu 15reb.. didn't even notice

 

[TBpup]

Nurk...24 and 14 with 4 blocks.....he's a keeper

From now on....that's how you play!

 

[riverman]

What is this, Stockholm Syndrome?

yeah....I'm actually looking forward to seeing Baldwin IV and Swanigan get some burn

 

[Scalma]

Nurk...24 and 14 with 4 blocks.....he's a keeper

Is that right though? The boxscore seems to have lost Turner, I thought he had about 11. I didn't hallucinate, did I? He was playing, right.

 

[Natebishop3]

I just think this team desperately needs some discipline. Some structure. It has been this way pretty much since LMA left. We at least had an offense that we ran with Aldridge. Since LMA left, Dame and CJ have been given the green light, and there's zero accountability.

 

[riverman]

Turner had 13 I think

You're right...bench had 31. Nate just gets excited sometimes and throws facts out the door....lol.

You're right. If I add up all the points in the box score it's only 96.

 

[Natebishop3]

............................ Look at the fucking box score.

[Titan]

From now on....that's how you play!

Just need Dame or CJ to get him the ball
