its been almost a month that we challenge every team. We are not that bad as
our record indicates, we are that injury prone as our record indicates. |

IMo, this game is yet just another example of that the FO needs to see if they can make a move to get a solid contributing player for one of those picks (assuming there is interest)...this team can compete. The notion to me they are not "just one guy away" based on their performance for, what now, past 16 games or so, suggests otherwise. I think they actually have a shot at being an issue, depending on what they get in return.
No dominant teams, just average / above average to good ones. Let's get in the mix with the good ones.

Indeed... |
Billymac's 1 big flaw to me is that he gets so damn excited for the other team it's hard to tell when we're doing well |

That’s the frustrating part
We should be like 3-5 games over 500 now, not 4 games under. Just those blown leads late in games |

Agreed with Reaves...it's like if you took Caruso, tweaked up the offense a bit but tweaked down the defense a bit. You have Reaves.

The Nuggets have zero rim protection. I would prefer AD in there whenever he’s healthy. |
To me it’s not an either or a active Thomas Bryant allows us to keep Anthony Davis healthyish |

I'd rather develop who we have... Bryant, Reaves, Walker, Max
Then lose those picks. |

Get us a solid guy in return for one of those picks Mad, and your wish will come true. This team can compete.

Of those guys, the only player under contract for next season is Christie though. |

Great performance in the 4th quarter. Excellent defense, forcing Jokic into awkward situations. Westbrook and LeBron played smart offense. It's amazing how LeBron still looks like the most athletic guy on the court at his age.
Wish we could get these kinds of efforts more often. |

Only a bit on offense? I think Reaves is already a lot better than AC on offense |

That’s what my wife always says when she can hear the game on in the background. She’ll be like “Billy mac was going crazy I thought they were winning?!!?” |
