We need to wake up or the Sonics will begin believing they can win this game if they don't already and they'll go win it. This is a piss poor performance energy wise. The starting lineup minus Yao came out with no energy and bench can't seem to get it going either. We gotta play harder and play faster.

You really can't help yourself can you.


What, I criticized Yao for playing matador defense.

McGrady hit the shot after I posted that.

We're getting our hands on a lot of balls to knock them loose, but they keep bouncing to the Sonics which breaks down our defense and surrenders an easy basket. This is FRUSTRATING.

Landry is going to the FT line again, for his 9th and 10th attempt.

That wasn't really a facial. Yao jumped...and Green went around him. A facial is what McGrady did to Bradley. What Kobe did to Dwight. Those are facials. That was just a nice dunk and a smart play by a young guy.

Alston singlehandedly just wasted a possession.

I swear half of Seattle's points have come from jumpshots right inside of the 3 pt line. Earl Watson has been on fire.

T-mac's been reaching a lot on defense. He doesn't look near 100% yet, he can barely move.

At least we have the lead at halftime while the Sonics shot 51% and outrebounded us. I expect our D to clamp up a bit.
