    It'd be great if they worked him in off the bench.

    "I don't know if people know — I dislocated my pinkie finger. And [Tyreke] told me, 'You wanna go home or you wanna be here?' I want to be here. And he said, 'All right, then go tape it up and let's play. Let's go. We not stoppin' at no stores. Straight gas. That's what we do, just keep going.'"

    what the heck I miss... I flip to a baseball game for 2 seconds and the Hornets lead

    I hear ya but its how the spurs and thunder got to be so good, i know they didnt lose on purpose but they were able to get high lottery picks that helped out so much in the long run. I dont want us to lose to if it means we have a shot at landing a stud in the top 3 then to win out and still not make the playoffs and get a 10-12 pick i'd rather the top 3 pick, just me though, i'd rather develop our young guys, lose now and dominate in the future!

    Lopez has really been struggling as of late...we should f traded him back when he was ballin n trade value was pretty high

    I can't stand when Davis stands out of bounds on offense. Not sure who to blame. Davis with 2 fouls already.

    Davis with his second... Monty will enter Panic mode, and he won't play more than 18 minutes tonight. lol

    I don't think that's true about the spurs. They got Duncan in the lotto but everyone else was just great scouting.

    The spurs drafted Parker at 27th I think and Manu like pick 60. You don't have to lose to get better. Losing to get better is the dumbest thing in all of sports.

    Look it's like this. This season is a lost cause and there is nothing to gain but a high pick next year. It's not as if we can still nab the 8 seed. It'd be different if the season was just starting and we wanna lose starting from jump street. With our cap space and a healthy Gordon along with our pick next year we should most def not be in no high pick mode next year. I don't root for us to lose myself but I don't get upset with an L. I do get upset during the game with players n coach but the outcome I'm ok with.

    I know what ur saying, im not saying to lose on purpose, but if our young guys go out and get better and play hard and we still lose a close game in the end i wont be upset

    You can get a solid player from anywhere in the draft if you are picking players who will accept and learn your team's philosophy and work ethic. It's proven every year. Hustle is usually one of my favorite traits in a player to pick.

    Exactly what i meant, would i rather us miss the playoffs and draft someone like poythress at 12 or not make the playoffs and draft otto or shabazz

    I agree but with earlier picks u can land a player with an elite skill and who hustles like porter, or in the later rounds u might only land a hustle player, ask any GM if they would rather a top 3 pick or a top 15 pick and every one will say top 3.
