Yet he still played better than Carter. Garbage.

Yeah, I'm just saying that besides him and Dwight, you need another player who you can count on consistently.

I pray for Melo every night.

Heh, we could use (someone like) Melo as well, but with Keith Bogans in the starting lineup, we got other things to take care of first. :oops:

we may post a good record but we havent played well against other good teams, especially ones with guys who can guard dwight 1on1. we need a massive revamping if we're gonna contend for the chip this year, any trae ideas?

...he just isn't the answer.

This about sums it up perfectly. But before I jump on the bandwagon, what question are we referring to?

Anyone else think Stan is keeping J Will fresh for the playoffs?

He damn well better play better than Carter. A 26 year old who's still considered the 3rd best SG in the league or a 33 year old role player? Hmmm

barkeley makes a great point, start bass, were too small out there. add another dimension to the offense.

You do know that Roy has no tissue in his knees and will never be the same player again though, right?

Blame himself and talk about lack of energy.

Monta? LOL.

They didn't accept Mayo+Thabeet+1st

You think they'd take our number 28 and Vince?

What's really gross is that our ugly offense was showcased on national television. Complete lack of off ball movement, screens for backdoor cuts, just flat out nothing

I know the players get the biggest blame but c'mon now, you can't tell me that our only plays consist of 3pt line ISOs and toss it into Dwight or whoever for a post up.

I think we're all in denial and blaming the sickness for pushing us back, but I think that teams are wising up to our system. And given the jumpshooting nonchalant nature of this team, which feels like it can switch it on in a second, we always dig ourselves in a hole and never play with urgency until we realize we lost the game.

For me Stan deserves the most blame. I mean Lawrence Freakin Frank was smart enough to post Vince up consistently, we see it work twice tonight and abandon it. Shard got good looks posting up, abandon it. Ya ya, Dwight was on so who cares, but in the grand scheme of things we can't rely on a shaky FT shooter to methodically work his offence only to be sent to the line.

Ugh, I just don't know anymore. End rant

Ha Charles calling for Shard to be benched.

Bass was getting the business in the paint as well....Aldridge looked like the jolly green giant compared to Bass out there...but Shard does need to be benched man

Vince can't get his own shot?

I must be missing something, Chuck.
