Seriously, Chucky is garbage. Karl's using the bench...What a novel idea.

I hear ya Atkins is just not getting it done for us. Why is this coach so stubborn when it comes to JR?

atkins is completely awful. and he's not even playing like a point guard....just hands it off to iverson and stands on the wing.

there is no excuse for him to get minutes over jr. completely stupid.

Good 2nd quarter, started off pretty sloppy, but finished off strong. I'm happy with a ten point lead going into the third.

As we all know, he's got something personal against JR.....last game JR played in was last sunday I believe against Golden State, and he played pretty good. I don't know how much longer somebody can tolerate the bs that Karl dishes out. As a Denver fan I don't know how long we've been waiting for the true 2 guard to come along, and now we finally get a 2 with a world of potential, and he's gonna get ran outta town. I know for a fact that JR wants to stay here, and likes it in Denver, but I would personally like to see him get a shot somewhere. He's done some ignorant things in his time here, but on the court......I think his upside is as much as anybody on the team. And lets remember that AI isn't 25 anymore.

Karl is supposedly not playing JR, because JR isn't putting in extra practice. So despite playing better, looking to pass more, and having hit on 45% of his threes in November, Karl is the head a-hole, so do as he says or be f*cked.

Too bad is he doing the same to the team. Wish the FO would get rid of him.

So it's not a rivalry because Philly sucks? Newsflash, we've split the season series with you guys for the last three years. But you're right.. it's not a rivalry.

did I mention that we might be the worst 3 point shooting team in the league without JR....0 for 5 so far tonight, and as we all know, when the playoffs come we need somebody knockin em down. So Karl responds to this problem by benching our best 3 point shooter, and playing AI and Melo a bunch of minutes to this point of the season. Does anybody think the front office notices this garbage?

I think that distinction belongs to the Sixers. Especially after we traded Kyle Korver.

Denver looks like they're aching to throw this game away.

wow. Karl just has no idea how to manage a game does he.
for 12 months i've been saying this guy has to go.
this team will never be dominant as long as Karl is the coach.

Yak was actually the best 3 point shooter in November, followed by JR. So he benched the two best, both definitely a lot better on D than Atkins too.

statistically Yak was better......but just because I go 2 for 4 from 3 and am hitting 50 percent doesn't mean I'm better then somebody who is 40 for 90. If you think Yak is in JRs ball park shooting 3's....your crazy.

Haha, AI really does NOT want to lose this game.

He's making those treys like he's actually good at them.

It is a small sample size, but in the 5 games that Yak shot 3 or more threes, he was over 50%. Does that make him better than JR? Of course not, but it shows when given a chance he delivers. I'd like it if the team had a coach who could use him better.

I think we can both at least agree, we'd rather have JR or Yak in, instead of Chucky.

AI was on fire in that third quarter, everybody else needs to get it going now. Although a ten point lead going into the fourth is pretty nice.

I agree 100 percent with that statement.....JR needs minutes to grow and gain experience.....so we don't play him at all. :crazy:

AC has 0 pts but 12 assists, when did this guy become such an assist machine?
