This is looking like a loss. Pathetic that I'm saying that with so much time to go.

It's obvious from their energy... Our guards absolutely stink tonight. We refuse to take advantage of the fact CHA is playing without an NBA C or PF...

We'll act desperate when we trail by 19 and there's 8 minutes left...

Lin has out produced all 4 of our guards. We down 14 now. Close to entering the 4th q and we have 52 points (mind you we had over 20 FR attempts too).
 
KP and Melo better take over... It we are doomed. We look old and tired and acting like we are more concerned with Sat night plans...

I think we walked into this game thinking we could go thru the motions and win just by showing up. I think our guards just assumed it hoped Melo would score 60 and they could take a night off.
 
With 104 seconds left in the third quarter... We've scored 12 points. Grant just hammered a brick off the backboard and CHA drains a 3... 71-55.

Frustrating to watch now.

After getting waxed last night and facing a team sans 5 of its top guys... We come out flat and play like this? Really disappointing...

When combined with the 2 OT wins vs bad teams... We should be on a free fall right now.

Grant bricks another 3... Shooing 16% yet DF lets him shoot those?

Lin leads all scorers... NYK down 77-56 after 3... 32-13 CHA this quarter... Tell Melo to shoot all fourth. All these guys are bums.
 
Two games in a row where we are failing to compete in the 2nd half. Defense has been bad both at the perimeter and at the rim. We have too many offensive weapons to be this inept for this long on offense. It's one thing to lose a couple tough games on back to back nights, it's another thing to let the other team have a 4th quarter laugher against you on back to back nights.
 
A Hornets 20 pt lead to start the 4th qtr. .. I would ask WTF happen then again i do remember i guy name Lin Sanity
 
Our guards don't score, don't help teammates score, and they can't stop opponent from Scoring.

When our guards provide adequate production we can win... They are rarely ever above average... And when they slump and fall in these ruts... We look awful.

Jeremy Lin just doubled what all of our guards have contributed combined.

We should sign Iverson.
 
I can excuse the LAC game... They lost the night prior and came in focused and just out-talented us...

Tonight is an indictment on our character. We didn't want to work for this win. We either thought too highly of ourselves (as if we have accomplished anything even remotely respectable this season) or we underestimated our opponent (the perennial losers we are we should never do).

We embarrassed ourselves and disrespected the game...

Look at this... Predictably, We played some defense and worked for points and here were are... Trying to get back into this... Going to be too little too late tho.
 
Good effort, in particular by Derrick Williams, to trim 7 points off the deficit in the first couple minutes of the 4th quarter. We trail by 14 and we are still in this game if we can get something going here with over 9 minutes to play.
 
Amundson fouls out on what feels like the 20th easy layup for Walker or Lin that we also manage to turn into an and-1 without even remotely altering the shot.
