Lively back tonight. I hope he looks as great as he was looking to start the season!

[RasheedsBigWhiteSpot]

This court is BRUTAL to look at.

[KillerLeft]

Man, if part of tanking is to let Williams get enough shots up off the dribble this season to get good at that…that’s almost as good as the pick to me. If he ever learns to take advantage of the space the opponents’ respect for his speed affords him he’s going to be a dude.

[KillerLeft]

Lively and Flagg both look amazing on defense.

Thompson does not look amazing on offense. Yikes.

[Deebo]

What a nightmare / cancel
The season.

Thompson does not look amazing on offense. Yikes.

Watching him play hurts my basketball soul.  I feel really bad for how his career is going to seemingly end, but I wish we didn't have front row seats to the spectacle.

I think 7th worst odds are pretty safe already.

We won´t be worse than the Pacers, Wizards or Nets, but no other East team can touch us.

In the West it becomes less clear. Utah is better than us mainly due to Hardy, but will probably out-tank us. Kings will try and finish above us. Pelicans will try too. Still not sure they can finish above us. Memphis should finish above us, but how toxic can this get with Morant.

So if all goes well we could finish last in the West, which should give us the 4th best odds.

Klay immediately shuts me up. More of those shots, please.

As long as he still makes the catch and shoot threes at least (like today), some contender can talk themselves into him. He´s basically Wes Matthews,

Also I felt the team would really be competitive today, and maybe the Clippers age will allow the Mavs to crawl back into the game.

Might have to buy a Cisse jersey. Kind of reminds me of Dwight Powell's high flying in his younger days with the energy, but a better shot blocker and rebounder. His hops might be closer to Brandan Wright.

[KillerLeft]

Thompson getting hot!

[RasheedsBigWhiteSpot]

Thompson getting hot!

Klay clearly wants to be traded to LA.

Klay clearly wants to be traded to LA.

If he wants to play for a lottery team he can just stay here.

[KillerLeft]

Not a great stretch for Martin.

Love Williams…need to see him improve as a shooter.

[cow]

How not to run a 3-on-1.

I'm not saying that Martin is playing well, but at least he's being aggressive tonight.

[Chicagojk]

Too many dry spells on offense with this team. Missed shots and turnovers pile up.

Williams is really fast. Too much of a look for my own though. Need a connector. Let’s see if this is something he can improve on.

[KillerLeft]

The “flow” ball movement is slowly looking better each game…but it’s pointless, because almost nobody on this team can shoot.

[KillerLeft]

LOVE me some CISSE
