Agreed! |

Despite the fact that our draft stock has lowered, we need wins like this to keep us from turning into a terrible franchise like the Cavs or Bucks. Gotta get a few shots of WIN in our arms every few weeks or so to remind us who we are. We'll still get Exum, don't you tankers worry!

Ya, Aldridge was a nonfactor 2nd half. |
Aldridge was pathetic. He didn't deal with the doubles well, at all. Got so desperate down the stretch he was just trying to do his turn around jumper as quickly as he could before the double got there. MDA and Wes severely exposed Aldridge's lack of moves with the doubles today. He has one move posting up, turn around over his right shoulder for the fadeaway jumper, and an inconsistent righty hook as his counter move. His footwork is awful. |

Hopefully we end the season on a 22 game losing streak.
21-39 is ass, celebrating a win to bring us 18 games under .500 is a joke.

He is a finesse power forward. |

He lived up to his lottery pick status tonight. If only he could be consistent. |
Ya that is the key. He has all the tools. February was his best month so far. |

I agree. It's so weird. I didn't know what to do. Laugh or cry. I'll take the laugh just because
of the annoying fans and their tired old "Beat LA" chants.

TBH, I don't know how to take this win. It does more harm than good but a W is a W.

Wesley Johnson said the key to that last play was Farmar's screen on Aldridge. Got him the space to go up for the alley-oop.
Farmar said it was the same play that got him an open 3 in the 4th vs. MEM, but Bazemore had option to throw the oop if Johnson got free.
D'Antoni said Meeks couldn't play any better than he has of late. Had 21 points here, was very good defending Lillard (esp. on last play).

Mike Trudell asks some of the worst questions I've heard, "Was this the greatest shot of your career?" I was a oop Mike, a oop. SMH
