I believe Quin has this exactly right but the wrong direction. The team that won 8 in a row is also the team that played tonight, but we would have never said that while they were winning 8 in a row.

I’m getting these random suggested tweets. This one was from earlier today but still relevant.

Another night with dudes hitting ridiculous shots at the end. I mean we run some dumb hero ball with donovan taking highly contested bad shots but both teams that just beat us made highly contested bad shots at the end.

Didn’t see tonight’s contest but l didn’t see a lot of high contest effort from our starting guards down the stretch last night. There were a few I guess but I kept wondering how their guards were so wide open on the pull ups.

NBA channel continually slighting the Jazz. Third or fourth time they’ve gone to break with the Jazz teaser only to return with more highlights from the other games, nothing from the Jazz game. Ouch!

Why is the ref trying to surprise the players during a jump ball?

Neto was ready for it and Don was standing there with his thumb up his ***.

Depressing. What happened to the strategy of feeding it down low that made us look dominant for half of that 8 game winning streak?

Donovan wanted to be the hero. So that's what happened.

You weren't paying attention then. There was plenty of great defense being played. Unfortunately guys were shooting over our little guys even when they played great defense. The game winning shot from the spurs was defended by rudy as good as he has ever defended anyone before but the dude made and insane shot to win the game. Kind of like the fade away buzzer beater three pointer from way beyond the three point line tonight.

Still think Neto is garbage?

We've already lost 6 games at home, we only lost 5 at home all last season.

I really wouldn't mind seeing Paschall get some of Joes minutes to see if a little energy and intensity would help when we get stagnant on defense.
