*UPSET ALERT*

Warriors are down 20 in Portland. 3 min to go in the 3rd.

Now 25.

Starting back court is 6-22. Booker isn't ready to be 1A on the scouting report just yet but what 19 year old kid is.

Teletovic is the only consistent offensive threat we have right now.

[The Bobster]

25 losses in 27 games.

10 game losing streak (2nd streak of 9 or more games this season)

Worst record since the expansion season (1968-69).

[carey]

It's cool how they call this like it's in Houston too. 48 FTAs for the Rox.

538 curse? Earlier today they posted an article arguing that the Warriors are more likely than not to win at least 73 games.

Actually, 33 PF on the Suns, 32 on Houston. It's just that the Rockets were a lot more aggressive.

The Suns made to many turnovers, shot poorly, got killed on the boards..... they're lucky they lost by only 16!

[The Bobster]

Timberwolves 17-38
Nets 15-40
Suns 14-41
Lakers 11-44 (soon to be 11-45)
76ers 8-46

We should probably start a standings watch for the Wizards as well.

Chandler just hurt his shoulder. Len already out. Fun times.

What a pussy. That contract looks better and better as the season progresses.

[iLLmatic]

I wish we had traded Weems.

....and Chandler and PJ and Knight and Bledsoe.

[UglyTruth]

Len out with an ankle injury from earlier in the week.

M******f

This.

Why is this surprising? Len is one of the most fragile players in the NBA. If you just look hard enough at his ankles, you'll injure it.

A complete waste of 7ft of height and some athleticism.

[Superbone]

Archie is 1-8 shooting right now.

He's warming up! Now 3 for 12!

How about that air ball three from the corner?

[Superbone]

Humphries with his first double double of the season. 18 points and 12 boards.

[Mori Chu]

I wonder when was the last time that somebody had a debut in a Suns uniform and got at least 18 points and 12 rebounds. How does one query something like that?

[JCSunsfan]

I've always like Humphries, but I thought he was pretty much done since he wasn't getting much time in Washington. He is an interesting player. He plays wobbly, like he hardly has any leg strength.

[INFORMER]

Harden hogs the ball, but he's the 2nd-leading scorer in the NBA and is still a deadly weapon.

Problem is, he's not being cast as a weapon, he's being cast as a team's #1 option. There's a reason OKC used him as a sixth man.

Harden is not a ball hog though. His problem is that he is lazy and his long ball hasn't been good enough this year.

Houston's problem in general is that they have no leadership, they suck at defense, and outside of Howard and Harden, they have a terrible roster. Morey's system values taking a ton of 3s, but he's put a roster together devoid of shooters.

[INFORMER]

Chandler just hurt his shoulder. Len already out. Fun times.

What a pussy.

I think that's a little harsh and unwarranted.

I like Chandler, but yeah, that was a stupid move. I'm just glad they didn't get Aldridge.
