Why is it that if one or 2 people say something (maybe repeatedly) it becomes "you guys".

I can't rember the majorit or even MANY people saying if Jose just admits he sucks on defense the world will be a better place.

If Dwight Howard shoots a jump hook over Earl Boykins to win a game do we want earl Boykins to say "hey its my fault I wan't able to block Howard's shot"?

I think Jose tries. He's simply incapable of playing good defense. Its really BCs and to a lesser extent Jays fault for putting him in a situation where he has no hope of suceeding.

What do you mean lately? He's been doing this since the start of the Season..


OK...someone has clearly not been watching the Raptors. Only the past 10 games (the ones back from the injury) have been sub-par and he's looked fatigued/disinterested.

He's been a beast for us all year, until he was injured. He was averaging 30/11/3.5/1.5 in the 5 games prior to his injury.

thanks for the recap.

I think he's just tired of banging his head against a brick wall. We all know he's capable of lighting a fire under his teammates because he's done it... but you can only care so much before other people's apathy starts to wear on you.



Sounds like he's checked out and thinks his shiz don't stink. Hopefully the LAL deal for Bynum is still on the table.


it was never on the table to begin with.

Yeah its toally Bosh's fault for not saying the right things. That's why Hedo's a lazy pizza eating slob. He's never been like that before..oh wait.

Yeah Bosh doesn't inspire Bargs properly he was such a ball of fire in Italy..oh wait.

If Bosh just showed more intensity Jose would become so much more laterally quick so he could stop opposing PGS..oh wait.

You know what LA does if players don't play hard despite Kobe's "inspiration" they ship their azz out. Did anyone blame Kobe's lack of leadership for Snowbaord man's lackadzical attitude? NO

I'm sure Tim Duncan's emotial on court demenor is totally what makes Manu so fired up?

Bosh's job is to come out and play hard and to do what he's asked to the best of his ability. If Turk wants to be lazy fatazz its not Bosh's job to change him

BC has been talking about toughness and bringing in character players and yet he spends the most money (Turk, Caldy and Bargs) and time developing players (Bargs) who are lazy and lack the tenacity to fight back.

If jose is bad defender, that's what he is. Adjustments, that's the coach's responsibility. He either changes up the defensive scheme or subs jose out.

also, because MJ used to go off for 30+ a night against the pistons. Is dumars a bad defender? detroit was the best team in the league at D. some guys are just too good. getting in the lane is what Dwill does and he's an all star for it.
