He played good in the 1st as well. The 2nd and 3rd was where he struggled at so not fair to say he played like ass in the 1st 42 minutes. 8 points in the first quarter is a really good start. On pace for 32 points at that point
OK....ass for minutes 13-42? Hell, even worse as he put up 1 point in this near 30 minute stretch.

That's nearly 2/3rds of the game you want to discount?

Speaking of clutch kickers did you see how the Bears game ended yesterday?
Ouch. Kicker should make that, but Nagy should take some blame for not trying to get closer with 43 seconds and TOs left.

I'm not discounting anything. It is called basketball. Players are not going to be great for all 48 minutes

Any advice for somebody not used to it? Know you used to warmer climate having lived in Los Wages.
If not used to it at all I'd say at least when driving just take your time. I mean, don't go crazy slow, but also no reason to drive like you would in nice weather.

worse is here when people who have lived in this weather for years act like they've never seen snow when it first comes back.

But all 48 count and if you think he outplayed Towns for 48 minutes (the length of the game) you are discounting most of them.

Where you at exactly? City or rural area? If it's rural can't help. City driving. All basic stuff. Make sure your vehicle has proper snow tires. Go under the speed limit. Give yourself plenty of room.

Kalispell, MT.....just outside city limits. We're moving in a few months to a bigger place in the city limits.

Amen to that last part. And begin your stop at a SS or light well before the SS or light.

No, they wont......but we don't discount the 30 minutes they suck and only care about the 18 they showed up.

So I've had no power in my area due to the blackouts since Saturday. They said it may not come back on until Thursday.

Bad news: Wasn't able to watch the Niners kick some ass.

Good news: Wasn't able to watch the Warriors.

Life comes at you FAST.

Gotta drive to Spokane today to drop off our Marine daughter so she can fly to Camp Pendleton for her military combat training for 29 days.....she comes home for a month after that.

Feel like a road warrior the last 1.5 weeks.

seriously....i mean the crackpot was crowing about Whiteside's 3 assists -- and of course in the other 2 g ames he played he had zero.

its early. relax.

for example- Sexton looked like shit the first 2-4 weeks last season and then looked absolutely great. its October. The season has almost 6 months left.
Now apply that to the Warriors you gigantic hypocrite

Some of these fucking jackasses around here actually think having a 4x4 capable vehicles means they can stop on a dime. Add that to all the people that text & drive & no wonder I don't want to drive anywhere around here.

On the plus side now with the snow the Tour De Farce morons who zip around town like they're in the last stage of a real race have been grounded. Those yo-yo's ain't right.

It's 25k but usually 45-50k because of the summer and winter tourists. Glacier National Park is a huge draw.

Other major cities are Missoula, Bozeman, Helena, and Great Falls

that sounds right to me too. TT going for something like 14 and 12 a night--- solid defense.

The Cavs do have a legitimate NBA front court with Love, TT and Nance Jr.

What they are really lacking is a high level wing that can play some D- which is also probably the most important position in the entire NBA.

yah- whether a guy does his damage in the 1st or 4th is pretty irrelevant analytically they will tell you. To my knowledge - they all count the same.
So no more talk of how clutch Kyrie is? I guess he hit just another jumpshot in 2016

Browns will be playing in a snowstorm? Ugh.

Not if the local news early gameday forecast is right. Sunny & in the mid 40's. I'm going to the game with my bro-n-law. I went to last years also.
