    That's an awfully pessimistic prediction. I think you're selling this team a bit short. It's more like 9-6 or 10-5 if I had to take a guess.

    Mostly Jalen, but Jabari is also going to be a big factor. If either one shoots the ball well on most nights, we will be in good shape.

    I feel like the team needed the rest with how they've started the season. Get a nice breather and take on this tough stretch.

    We are being punished for the back 2 back OT thrillers.

    We got to take care of business in excremento on Tuesday. They have been playing so bad, we can’t get trapped before the worriers.

    Let's not care what people think, and just enjoy knowing we got us a team to really root for.

    People still aren't giving us the respect we deserve. Some doubt we'll stay in the top 3 in the West, let alone prove we can win a playoff series.

    They still need to keep it up - but I did not believe that they would beat the Thunder or Wolves.

    There are some tough games coming up - lets keep winning.
