Losing is a quiet blessing this season.

Honestly we're 9-23 in the last 32 games TRYING TO WIN every game. This team doesn't need to tank. Even if they try, they will lose.

Got sloppy. Thunder have more FG Attempts 3 point attempts and Ft

Too many fouls and turnovers. We're also being outrebounded.

Thunder is the 29th team in 3pt shooting and they're 7/12 in 3s in the first half. Our 3pt defense is tremendous...ly awful.

Haha. Funny way to look at it

So if we root for losses they'll better meet expectations.

I wonder why teams don't run zone against Westbrook or just try to make him score 100 every game.

I get the logic or tanking at one level

But I think purposefully losing is bad karma, frowned upon by basketball gods: e.g., even if you get a high pick they'll bust

Let's just play the game the right way, respect the game and just hope the other team plays better on any given day for the rest of the season

OKC made the adjustment by denying Melo the entry pass at around the 6 min mark and the Knicks turned the ball over three consecutive times..No one on the coaching staff recognized it and no time outs called until the 4 minute mark.

That's just it - they're doing that and losing! So I'm not "rooting" for losses, but I'm also past getting bummed about them.

Also, terrible pass by KP to start the 3rd.

I take it back, you might be right. Jennings has apparently locked his social media accounts and removed all Knicks imagery. Sounds like a trade to me. I made a thread about it.

Honestly, there have been some really poorly called games this year... I wouldn't say this has been one. I saw Willy get hammered on one drive and no call, but it's been okay otherwise.
