I think this is the stretch of the season where our (already silly) hopes for staying in the playoff race get bashed into pieces. Bunch of tough games coming up and we haven't shown a lot of grit in these kinds of situations, Nets comeback aside.

The silver lining to this impending, big-assed storm cloud is that, with all hopes of playoffs dashed, management/coaching can or should focus on playing all the young players to see what they offer. That means more time for Archie, TJ and Reggie Bullock. And give Thornton a case of roster-shuffling tendinitis ....
Well, so much for hopes and dreams ...

One would think, but for some reason I highly doubt it.

Yeah, I doubt it too. Maybe if we lose another 4 or 5 in a row.

Is this a superior brother?

The brother thing was sorta/semi amusing to me back in the day with Taylor Griffin.

Not so much anymore.

He sort of under the radar.
Think of him as an "Undercover Brother" ...

Shoots 48% from 3 in the D league. That alone will put you in the NBA. I didn't like that he was so ball-dominant in summer league, but I think he's got a legit chance to stick on the roster through next season.

Did they? Cool. I'd rather they just play Archie at this point but I do like Seth.

The Saints traded my Graham cracker. This is kind of like the Suns trading JJ. I'm super bummed.

Edit: Bob, wth is up with the Eagles? I gave up social media so PM me here or something.
Go Suns!

I think Ryan McDonough is running the Eagles.


How on earth do the Rams get ANYTHING for Sam Bradford, let alone a BETTER QB AND BETTER DRAFT PICKS?!
