    So, La Marcus Aldridge says he's tired. He's supposed to be the All-star that didn't make it. So really he had a week off to prepare for this day, the fight to the playoffs, not say he's tired. I think tired is code word for needing his teammates to step up.

    Why, why, why would Mills only get 10 minutes when he is red hot and 5 for 5.  If a player is streaking like that you put them in the game.  Especially in the last 1:40 of the fourth when we need scoring so badly.  CRAP!

    I don't know about everyone else, but if I'm exerting myself more one week than I have been for the past four months, I will most likely be a little more tired as well. Its just the way it works. 2nd most minutes of all players as a big, I would say we've been asking a lot and he deserves some credit.

    I think that LA is awesome! He has played better than any of us had expected. I don't doubt that he has been working hard and he has carried the team these last couple of months. But, when you hear on one hand that LA should have played in the All-star game (which means he wouldn't have had rest) but then you hear he's tired. I just feel that maybe he is tired of carrying a team that is healthy now. Batum really needs to start making baskets,his defense is awesome but his offense is lacking. They need to stop playing Brandon in my opinion. he slows the game down horribly and where was Rudy? I barely noticed that he was in the game.

    I wondered that as well. Also where was Batum in the last 5 min of the game. He went out and never came back. I would love to know what Nate and his coaching team were thinking.

    LA looked tired early in the 2nd quarter. I don't care if it means losing games, we need to get this guy some rest. After tonight, I don't know if we can hold onto 6th, so if we drop to 8th, so be it. I'd rather face the aging Spurs than the Lakers. Also, Babbitt and CJ showed some hustle tonight. I wouldn't mind seeing them in there for limited amounts of action if it meant we could rest up our star player.

    Yeah I was one of them *blushes*. I was never a diehard fan of basketball until the 2011-2012 postseason. I could name every team, but I always forgot two. Kings and Blazers.

    Yeah, he was tripping with that Scottie Pippen reference. Nowhere as good as him, BUUUTTT, I think he can be, if he plays like a man. In Euroleague, you are taught more about finesse, and the fundamentals. He needs to put a little more muscle on, ...

    I think what Stotts is doing is superb. His plays are great. I remember the only play he ever called for Meyers Leonard, against the Bobcats. Great movement, got LMA a good mid range look, got Batum a decent three look and the got Meyers way down ...
