Looks like the team headed into the lockers about four minutes before the half ended.

Shit, guys ... have some pride.
Well, so much for hopes and dreams ...

That solid defensive effort. This team lacks hustle and the guys that do hustle do it in bad ways. Price gambles way too much leaving his guy open for a drive. PJ feels the need to leave his man at the three point line to triple team someone. Our young guys have a lot to learn on the defensive end.

Even our decent defensive players play like crap on defense this season.

28 losses in 30 games.

Watson still winless.

Timberwolves 18-40
Nets 16-42
Suns 14-44
Lakers 11-48
76ers 8-49

Looks like they have one of the four worst records wrapped up, and now they're the favorites for the #3 spot.

I think it might be time for me to switch to checking the final box score before watching games for the rest of the season. If we are losing by 20 and the only players that played well are vets it isn't all that interesting. I really wish TJ didn't get hurt. The more young guys playing the better chance at least one of them will have a good game. Which would actually make it worth while to watch the game.

Like he's dragging ass and not used to the rigors of an NBA season.

Maybe he's busy hitting that Hotline Bling with the Snapchat hoes? That Drake move he busted out (which I think was also our last win) sure scored him lots lady love on social media.

Holy shit, Mirza with 30 big points and 11 boards. Wow.

Booker, 3-12. The good old days of him shooting 70% on 3s or whatever are long gone.

Welp, my fears were unfounded.

Just shows how bad we really are. The lowly Nets schooled us.
Synchronicity and all that jazz, man.

They looked like the Globetrotters against us. I think every lowly team feels great when they play us.

Great. Now I want some Whataburger. Time to check Google Maps to see if they have one in Eugene.

We needed to lose this one, no room for mistakes. It was f-ugly but efective. The Nets have no business tanking, but still.

Too bad we can't play the Sixers and the Lakers every night from here on out.
