If you can still stomach watching these games on TV, the last minute of the half was a pretty much a microcosm of how this season has gone for Seattle.
Down 65-47 with a chance to take the last shot, Earl Watson dribbled the clock down, drove right but was stripped by none other than University of Washington product Bobby Jones, who Memphis signed to a 10-day contract and started tonight in place of a sick Rudy Gay.
Jones raced down the other end, finished at the rim and was fouled by Watson on the other end. Jones made the foul shot, giving Memphis a 68-47 lead going into halftime.
A pretty pathetic effort by the Sonics, who seem less interested in the games as this road trip progresses. Some sort of shake up is obviously needed for this team to snap out of its January-long funk.
The team is going to take its lumps during this rebuilding process. That's expected. But they should compete against a team like Memphis, especially with a day off.
