Safe to say they won't be catching the Warriors

Not unless they beat them 3 times.

Terrible game to lose considering all the guys Memphis were without

As bad or worse then Warriors loss yesterday, but it happens.
I always hate when an opponent comes in that undermanned.
Heat almost let one get away yesterday in similar fashion.

True. Not out of the picture considering 2 of those 3 games are in San Antonio

Mr. Lue is 14-7 as Head Coach.

Impressive

But he is suppose to be a lot better. thats what Wiggy said. They got a better coach.

GS was a bad loss. Your the best team int he league and lose to the 2nd worst team in the league by double digits.

Not exactly...they lost tonight.

I would say this one is worse-only because Memphis didn't have any of their big 3. The Lakers were at full strength yesterday. But in any case, neither team should've lost.

Great now Portis is now hurt. He is ok

 

[purguy12]

so far the 2nd team for the bulls have let 2 10pt leads slip away. Not good. A. Brooks is half of what he was last year.

Plus Cavs were at home, and are nowhere in the comfort zone that the Warriors appear to be.

I'm convinced the Bulls are cursed.

Yea I agree, the Warriors are playing really good ball. They lose here & there as expected because no team can have a perfect season. And thankfully these types of games are not the norm for the Warriors. However, they're more expected from the Cavs though.

MJ and/or Phil probably did it when they broke up the team after the 2nd 3-peat because the GM didn't think he got enough credit.

Great month for D Rose. Its actually fun to watch him play again.

 

[TurnUpTheHeat]

So, I scrolled through 4th qtr plays to see what Love contributed.
2 FTs.

But he's so much more improved. Everyone's improved. Including Austin Carr.

In all honesty, I think James trusts Kyrie for sure, and then a few others over Love in key/ clutch situations.

How much of Jimmy Butler playing like he was has something to do with Rose putting on his big boi shorts & playing with heart again? I just really felt like he played scared for a long time after he got hurt.

Well I mean with a stat like 2 points in the 4th it's hard to disagree with him. Goodness, at least rebound out of your mind if you ain't gonna score!
