Marcus Morris needs to be shipped off the ****ing team.

That dude is straight up GARBAGE. You can't tell me that one of D-Mo, Terrence Jones, or anyone else couldn't give you more productive minutes on the court.

McHale is terrible. I have no idea why they got rid of Adelman.

Because Morey is a stubborn basstard who got offensive when Adelman had a different vision for our team. Because of that we ran off a hall of fame coach and replaced him with trash

If any of y'all have LPBB but can't watch it due to black outs, to get around it all you need to do is download Hotspot Shield and CCleaner. Hotspot Shield will change your IP and CCleaner removes cookies and cache's or something like that so it actually works.

Was able to watch last nights game flawlessly.

went to the game last night.... toyota center was 2/3 full and was a morgue..... mchale sux as a coach...... absolutely awful...... morris is a joke and mchale keeps playing him heavy minutes..... our PG's are atrocious and lin is starting to look like a major bust...... can't set up the offense, can't shoot and a horrible defender


I'll echo a lot of this and add that I missed the RPD "wardrobe malfunction" on the brand new big screen...just a bad night all around.

I will withhold judgement on Lin and the offense for a while yet, but the last couple of games have been BAD. There's not even a hint of a low-post presence on this team and not enough players who can create their own shots (Harden is about it)...that's a recipe for mediocrity at best, but it's 4 games in, too.

jeremy lin can create his own shot, and that's VERY obvious

Back in action tonight, should be a good game against the Grizz


Side story: I ran into a buddy of mine that is an agent for Comcast, his job is to patrol the Houston area and help clients reduce their bills or switch services. I asked him point blank when I could expect as an AT&T Uverse customer to receive CSN Houston and he had no idea what I was talking about. Nor did he know that CSN even existed. He was under the impression it was still FSSW. Either said friend is just lazy and doesn't keep up with his own company or progression in getting the channel to other companies is at a standstill

So... Your buddy who is probably a cable salesman at Best Buy is an idiot for not knowing exactly where the Comcast TV Network (probably a very different entity than comcast cable) is in their negotiations with AT&T? Would any reasonable person expect him to know?

He works directly for Comcast, I just would have thought he would know about this channel. Especially since its a good selling point.

Grizzlies played pretty good defense to force a lot of the turnovers.

McHale on leave of absence for family reasons. Sampson will coach.

I hate Sampson, but Im excited to see if he unleashes the rookies and sits the worst player in the NBA, Morris.

You realize we played the last game with Sampson as coach and he did play everybody on the bench?

Well neither did I but I tracked. Looks like Terrance Jones played pretty bad. 1-6, no rebounds.

Yea Jones pretty much showed why he hasn't gotten any PT this season. Im just hoping they keep it close tonight. I will be at the game and don't want to have to witness a thorough beatdown

Tempted to take Heat -5 but I hate betting against my teams. The under 195 should be good though I think.

The title of the post has so much truth in it. Another year of mediocrity, no game changing draft pick, and perpetual mediocrity. The owner and GM are awful. Just go ahead and really suck. Make it stop.

Even with a few questionable calls at the end of the game (Battier fouling Harden on the 3, and Morris fouling out) it was still ours to win. Just couldn't close it out.

That Jeremy Lin 3-point airball at the end was absolutlely pathetic, reminiscent of Scott Padgett, yea let that sink in....
