Looks like that's how you see the games. When we were getting lit up by the Wolves but winning, it was 'look at the record'. Now it's look at the 3 games we played defense.Quote:

What is a fat joke?
We were right to be worried last year...they finished with their worst record in the Duncan era, sneaked into the playoffs as a 7th seed and were swept out of the post season by a superior team...Quote:

What will be really original is you offering a basketball take other than wanting to keep your lips snugged up to Pop's backside.Quote:

They are starting to lose some weight. Still tight in the seat, though.Quote:
