What's new

Did we just go into Beasty Mode?

I feel pretty much the same about this team as I did the DWill teams. I feel like we can beat anyone besides one team and we will most likely have to face that team in the 2nd or 3rd round.

True that. Man the Lakers used to own us back then. Still I'd gladly settle for a trip to the Western Conference Finals, hell who am I kidding, I'd settle for a first round series win.

I'm wondering if he's talking about San Antonio?

Maybe it was LA.
 
With Joe Johnson coming alive, Favors contributing, Burks back, and Pimples finally cracking the rotation we are a MONSTER.

**** with us, and you are ****in with the best. Unless you are Golden State. Then Second Best.
 
The beast mode is open to discussion imo but definitely can feel that the winning attitude has finally arrived. Teams used to close games on us and now the opposite.


I post, therefore I am.
 
Beast mode is called consistency, it's when you reach a high enough level that you consistently trounce teams that aren't as good as you. We have become good enough and confident enough that we take care of business.
 
I'm way too high on this team. I legit think we can get the 3 seed. We're on pace for 53 wins right now. But how do we fare tonight on a B2B on the road against a team on paper we should beat? Against a really good Celts team? Against a Clippers team who we are in a tight battle with? Because those are the next three games and we can't just happen to have a lull. That's what our Deron teams did way too often imo. We were always a 53 win team or so and the 5 seed and would lose dumb games at Minnesota and such during that time. It was frustrating because home court is so important in the playoffs and I always felt like that Deron-led team never realized that. Except that team stunk on defense and on the road.

This team doesn't. There's no excuse for not bringing it every night. We need to play elite defense every night and let the chips fall where they may. We have the depth to stay fresh. We have a phenomenal opportunity in our sites and I really want to see us go 2-1 at worst over the next three (with one of those wins over the Clips) because I wanna look back in two months and know that I wasn't too high on this team. We really are that good.
