Worst game of the year, maybe the worst game of the LeBron James era.
- Nothing good to say.
- Nothing positive to take away.
- Nothing but more of this coming our way.
- Nothing to do but buckle it up and try again tomorrow.
- Nothing will change though.
Couple more games like this they actually might fire Frank. At that point better to put Fizzy in and let him sink with the ship rather than throw Phil under the bus. This season is done.

Could be the most accurate Fiver of the year, Jamie.
I never expected this team to give up but they have.
Only thing to do now is start search for new coach.

Man, I can’t believe I am finally able to come to terms with the worst loss of the season. It took me a whole while to get over it.
I have tried to stay away from the keyboard from the moment the game ended. My feelings were so hurt I thought my comments would be mistaken for typing while drunk. And I don’t even drink.
The pain of watching this team not showing up was unbearable. I am out of adjectives to describe my feelings. The team just keeps making us brace for more losses throughout the season but some losses are more painful than others, and this one ranks right up there as the worst.
Unlike the Clippers game where Reaves’ hustle play helped energized the team, there was no one last night who dared to take the bull by the horn. Everybody looked hesitant and the captains of the ship were busy committing turnover after turnover that was not forced. The voice of the coaching staff could not be heard during the storm and the players quit on them as a team. The team morale was completely wiped out.
The diehard fan in me is calling for patience but the real me is not buying it. The only way this team can bandage this wound is to win the next three games as a start. And that is a tall order.

Thinking we have overrated Reaves and THT, perhaps even Monk?
Buba says
I don’t think they are overrated. To me, they were lacking direction from the team leaders. That defensive play by Monk where he rose and caught the ball way above the sky was the play that should have energized the team and help turn the game around but the team leaders just kept turning the ball over and over. Those turnovers kept sucking the air out of the team. In the end, the youngsters were clueless.

My sentiments exactly Jamie, although you did go into more detail than I would have.
