My bad. We need a sarcasm font lol

For the record, I don't believe Tyreke cost us this game. I just believe NO MATTER WHAT he does positively, overall, he will never help us advance to our target goal. He's takes more off the table than he brings. That won't ever change.

Cunningham for all his hustle shouldnt be playing this big a role, he kills the spacing. We need a quality SF who can shoot

It doesn't matter, Monty won't use that guy either.

he was still clearly stinging from the injury after he came back in... the next couple of days will be telling

Road back to under 500 coming up , love this team not being able to beat its weaker opponents , but this fan base is alright with it , man put AD on any other team not tanking and they will be bloody above 600'

If Reke was not feeling well, why play him for three complete qtrs? That doesn't make sense. Rest him a bit more, and figure out a way to play with Wolters or Jimmer. Monty has to be smarter than me.

Jimmer didn't make us get behind by 11 in the first quarter. When AD missed three games he sucked for the equivalent amount of time from the field. I can't honestly complain about him...This game.

We could probably turn them into a 2nd rounder.

surely that one player would be better than 0-5, 1 ast 1 rebound in 10 minutes of play.

Tell
Me how many times tyreke has been in the playoffs ?? Thankyou very much

I feel like whenever we lose, it's usually the same thing... Gordon and/or Anderson sucked big time

Fire Monty

And Reke

Thunder lose to the Knicks 100-92... so there's that

Who's okay with it? There's just not much we can do about it as fans.

Please elaborate. If he would have had more assists, he would have had less points.

I will take tonight as a W, AD could have tore his ACL and been out for the year, but he missed 5 minutes..... I'll take that over 10 Pelicans wins. I am happy as can be right now. Thunder loses, hopefully Suns do too.

The team wasn't prepared to play tonight. I saw that within the first 5 minutes of the game

I agree. There is a reason he's never been a winner. Reke's style of play won't get us to the promised land. He kills ball movement. He's been better of late though.

You know, I'm a fan of this team and all. Just like everyone else here. But I dont cry and whine about every little thing. I know no player is perfect. And I totally expect players to makes mistakes. I expect to lose some games. Some games I expect to win, but they still lose. But hey, it happens. It's basketball. Some people here take it way too damn personal. Learn to enjoy it. Quit your *****ing. Too many snap judgements around this forum. Good game tonight. Sucks the Pels lost, but like i said, it happens. Get over it.

I would say, "Get over it. Move on. Concentrate on the next game." But that doesn't really work. COnsidering noone here actually matters when it comes to "the next game". My poing is, Be a fan. But don't be a dick about everything.

I agree to an extent, but we don't know whether or not there will be any lingering issues. Not to mention, now we are rooting for results that prevent us from losing ground, when it was out in front of us to pick up ground. Nothing that can be done about it now, but it's frustrating.

more turnover and fouls than assists.. 22 shots for 25 points.. AD took 15 shots for 24 points, yet tyreke had a good game, and people question my IQ.. jokes
