Hey - we can compete with the league best and be disappointed when we lose. Seems like we've made some serious progress even if the outcome last night is a huge bummer. I like this squad.

Yeah, the losing sucks but this is pretty much what you'd expect to see with a team that's steadily improving and maturing but still has a ways to go. 

The fact that we should be winning a lot of these games just shows that our team can compete with anybody right now, they just need to learn how to finish down the stretch.  We'd all rather be coming out ahead but this isn't a bad place to be considered we've basically remade the entire team in the last 18 months.

p---ed off by all the Gloomy Guss threads about firing our coach, or trading our all-star PG for peanuts.

We were not supposed to beat Cleveland. The experience and talent pool they have is far superior.

We are an imperfect team, but as the author of this title says, having a rim protector makes everyone look better - especially the perimiter defenders who can now be more aggressive and/or funnel penetration to the rim protector.

This is a fun team to watch for 70%-80% of the time. We have several good players and could be a very good team in 1-2 years. Heck - lets give these guys 20 games to get their act together and maybe we can be good THIS YEAR... Have a little faith...

Well, guess I like to have higher expectations for my team.

It shouldn't take a heavenly miracle to see your home team pull off a W.

If that's the state of the team, then something should be done to fix it.

Let's take a look at the concern on DA's face

It wouldn't have taken a miracle, just less Bass and Evan Turnover.  If we finish the 4th with from about 8minutes left with Rondo, Sully, KO, Green, and Bradley I think we win by double digits.  That group had Lebron totally frustrated and blaming his teammates.
