It's not fun to go into the fourth quarter with a 12 point lead and know they're still gonna lose.


Why anyone expects to beat the Spurs at this point is beyond me.

Why anyone needs wins to have fun is also beyond me.

I know wins sell and are certainly nice, I just do not require them if I am getting something else out of the games.

I like watching the young guys get better (they are), AD fgure it out, and talking with my guests and season ticket neighbors (at home games).

I wouldn't expect them to beat the Spurs, but it's disheartening when the team gets big leads in games and everyone expects them to blow it anyway.

I love watching AD, but as of now he's one of the only bright spots on the team (currently not injured). Losing is not fun.

1. I don't care who we're playing, or how many injuries we've had, if we outplay a team for the first 3 quarters and go into the 4th with a 12 point lead, I expect us to be able to win. I just don't see how after watching that game you can just say, oh well, we shouldn't be beating the Spurs anyway so it doesn't matter.

2. Lets not act like the Spurs have been so great lately. They're 5-5 in their last 10 and were playing without Leonard and Giniobli. There is no reason to think that we couldn't have beaten them.

What? I don't understand how anyone can thinking consistently watching their team lose close games is fun, especially with the way we've been able to choke some away.
