That game was awful and we deserved to lose bigtime and we will be in the cellar again if we don't stop this BS. We had a 2nd half meltdown but we got LUCKY. This game should have been a 20pt blowout. Why was I expecting us to lose? Because we always do. If it wewen't for CK's unexpected performance. ( I was hoping for 15/12) we're screwed. Baron is playing like a mediocre to good PG. Not a star. Where are the 18-20 pts? Thornton was supposed to be 15ppg. Nobody expected much scoring from PF. They don't even guard BD outside half the time. There is one of the big problems. When CK is tripled or quadrupled, nobody else can score. Give us the scorers we expected then you may see something because we have none.

As far as MDSr. There's a time when you have to be realistic. This team has had 4th quarter meltdowns for 2 years. It has to be the coach.

Does Ricky D really deserve to get no playing time I can limited PT but Ricky is still a productive player here and now and with the play of the bench going up and down we need to try all our options.

I'd be curious to see what would happen if we just gave Novak the starting job at the 3... An experiment for 3 games or so. Would his outside shooting help more than his poor defense hurts? The way teams are starting to double Kaman (especially in the second half), that leave only Gordon as a solid outside shooter. Baron and Thornton can be put on self check. Just let them shoot. Butler hasn't been any better so far, but hopefully that will change...

It's been a pretty easy formula guarding the Clippers in the second half. Make Kaman work for the ball. When he dribbles (Kaman loves to dribble) run another man at him. Stay home on Gordon and make Camby, Baron or the SF beat you from outside as the ball gets reversed. Add to this, kaman is not a great passer out of the double team... We are very easy to guard unless Butler gets his stroke back... Baron and Thornton aren't frightening beyond 20 feet.

I wish we'd just stick to the motion offense we use most of the first half.

okc is not bad. after today, a nail biter vs okc might be extremely likely. remember we lost by 40 pts to them last year to end the season.

Tonight we are all Heat fans

The Thunder are going toe to toe with the Lakers.

ya, but we were down 1 in the 4th to them also.

why does everyone think the OKC are so good? half the guys on the squad you don't even know....this team is not even a playoff threat and I honestly believe that

You have to be an allstar before you can be a superstar XD... he definitly showed his star power tonight air-balling 2 clutch shots. Hes good I know..but the team is not there yet

Its completely inexplicable to me why we don't (other than to just say Dunleavy can't coach). Its not even really about coaching at this point, its simple common sense.

I'd be in favor of giving Novak a look. I'm a bit surprised he hasn't gotten more PT, given the lack of production from the SF spot.

I know... His D is pretty abysmal, but still... He spreads the floor on offense. Perhaps that's worth more than the points he'd give up... We do have two pretty good shot blockers behind him. Maybe we get away with it. The way Butler and Thornton are playing, it's worth a try.
