He really does have Boogie-like thin skin.
The bottom line is that pretty much everyone is sucking, but they had the toughest schedule to start the season and could easily be 5-5 if the NBA hadn't blown a call that they admitted to and they hadn't choked away an 8 POINT LEAD WITH THE BALL AND 48 SECONDS TO GO... yeah I'm still bitter about that.
