**mostly just highlighting late game collapses**

11/10 - Mavs - 109 - 104 - Outscored by 8 in 4th.
11/17 - @ Blazers - 102 -93 - Outscored by 21 in 4th.
12/10 - @ Mavs - 112 - 107 - outscored by 6 in last qrt
12/16 - Warriors - 128-122 OT
12/31 - @ Spurs - 95-93 OT - The Tip
01/07 - @ Hornets - 98-94 - Outscored by 7 in 4th
01/12 - @ Boston 108-100 - Outscored by 12 in 4th
02/04 - Thunder - 102-91 - Outscored 51 - 34 2nd half.
02/09 - Jazz - 100-96 - Outscored by 14 in 3rd.

Throw in bad losses @ 76ers, @ Knicks, @ Pacers & Home versus Nuggets & Pacers - that's 14 total, with most of them coming with at least 1 of our original starting 5 out. Just 5 wins in these puts us @ 34-22.

Cleveland, Dallas & Memphis are our only 3 losses all season with a healthy starting 5. Washington & Charlotte could count, but Eric was shaky in the first 2 games back.

26 games left and I'm hoping we can build from these last 2 wins going forward and use it in the next 7-10 games without Davis & Ryan.

ETA: Missed the Dallas game and bolded the games I attended.

Could have been a first round sweep.

I had apparently blocked this out of my memory. This one still sucks the most. The odds man...

You can add @Magic to your list as well and I think you've covered everything.

The thing with this season is there are a good chunk of "implausible wins" to go with the "tough losses" it's hard to gauge where we should be.

Went to this game. We were actually getting manhandled by the half, but we made a huge run in the third. Eventually we blew that lead
