A suggestion - fans here should stop begging for plays that make you say ooh & ahh

And instead just appreciate that Kirk stabilizes our defense, basically gives the offense a shooter and little else

Whereas Nate gives your defense a glaring hole, and offense that frankly is very basic one-on-one play. Compared to his burst starting the season..... I'm concerned more with his PER throughout his career since that is who he is.

Last year, we would have laughed at Barry's comment about Asik having good hands.

But yes lets relentlessly slam Hinrich some more



Good point, Hinrich has been awful for 12 minutes while Robinson has been awful for 6.

Might as well play Teague today. Kirk and Nate have been bad so far.

I disagree. They should amend the rules to make it so that every Kirk Hinrich dunk is worth 30 points.

Because Kirk has been sooooo good in this game.

I really miss Asik. Didn't want to resign him assuming we wouldn't pay the tax, etc due to our financial tendencies. However, really hated losing him as a talent/player. He looks so much better offensively!

Our lack of offense gives the opposing team so much confidence.

Would be nice if we could get this under 10 by halftime.

That's fine. But I'd rather have the guy that just exists while out there, than the guy that damages something while we're out there.

Our defense is how we win games. It's vital that stay in place.

Argh. We're going to get blown out if we don't start playing defense.

Boozer has no subtlety to his fouls at all. Just blatantly chucks a guy out of bounds for an obvious whistle.

We're only losing because realistically no one wants to even look at someone dressed in these jerseys, little alone pass to someone wearing one.

Many ppl here don't really know about bball so don't expect them to understand.
