Facts are great.  If you think Rogers going 12/4/4 and Battie getting 9 
boards and two blocks "sucks" or "stinks" that's just peachy.  I don't.  
Guys can play decently, and the team can still lose.  Sometime you even 
play well and still lose.  When the team loses, it doesn't mean they "suck"
.

Not a fact.  The fact is that he missed the shot; your opinion is that he 
"choked".  I don't share it, unsurprisingly.

It's fine when you think the team "sucked" when they lose and that they're 
the best thing since sliced bread when they win.  Don't expect others to 
take your opinion as some sort of Gospel, though.
