Bynum is studly. Mo was pretty sweet and Bogut wasn't bad either. Simmons is teh suck, we really need a better SF (and no I'm not talking about Mason either.)

Now onto the real story. Who has the better adam's apple, Yi or Ann Coulter?

JVG spoke the truth tonight. I'm still all over the trade Redd bandwagon and I think this team could really flourish if we had a different 2 and 3 (a better scoring and defending 3 and a better ball-handling/passing 2). Mo is a baller, end of story.

I have a feeling it's going to be back to reality the rest of January for this team.

Bynum is a beast. I'd trade Bogut and our unprotected 2008 for him without thinking twice.

Horrible rotations all night. Yi and Simmons both got too much time, CV not enough.

Another loss tomorrow.

Simmons has to be put on the end of the bench for a long time.

Villanueva needs to play tons more.

I don't get why CV doesn't play. 8-4-2 with a block in 15 minutes. Yi was awful until garbage time. Simmons was garbage period.

Seriously, I don't remember all the defensive breakdowns that must have kept him on the bench. Did they exist?

Why is he the only guy singled out?

I'd trade Yi and Bogut for Bynum.

IMO... When everyone is healthy.

Starters:

Ivey - Mo - Redd - Yi - Bogut

Bench:

Bell - Mason - CV - Ruffin

Keep CV on the bench but play him starters minutes and play Yi less. DO NOT play Bobby Simmons when Mason is healthy. Use that 9 man rotation.

I am still on the bandwagon for a trade for the Bucks. I still hope it is for another 2nd tier guy to pair with Redd... But if we trade Redd and get a good return that is fine as well... Just something to shake it up and hopefully get rid of Gadzuric and/or Simmons who are the most overpaid players in the NBA.

and then everyone complains that he's inconsistent. The guy plays consistently better for a stretch of games and still doesn't see more than 15-16 mins a game, seriously, Larry K has something against CV. Why would he want to play consistently knowing that the coach isn't going to give him more minutes come what may.

Quite Frankly, our coaching staff lost the game for us buy playing a horrible rotation. Bobby Simmons got more minutes then he deserved and was a liability out on the court for us. Villanueva got less minutes even though he was killing the Lakers when he was out there at first but the coaching staff decided to leave him on the bench for an entire quarter plus and he got cold. Why this team is so against playing Charlie V at Sf I have no idea. Mo' played great, and Redd played very well for his first game back.

Yi has been a big let down since the Charlotte game.

We're showcasing Yi and Simmons for our trade w/ Memphis for Gasol?
:pray:

I have no clue why those two saw more than 1 min in the 2nd half.

If that's the case it backfired big time.

It's crazy how JVG pointed out all of flaws so easily when watching the Bucks for 1 game. Hire him please.

I'm not down on Yi at all. Once he gets the upper body strength I think it will help his game immensely. He already has the jumper, he can take guys off the dribble, he's a solid (not great) rebounder and a decent shotblocker.

Passing and finishing at the rim are the two things he needs to improve.

I still think he's going to be a very good player.

Bynum = Monster
Yi's adam's apple = Monster
JVG as Bucks coach = Monster

Watching the sportscenter highlights.

Who got burned by Ariza on that over the head pass from Kobe? #22.

Something has to be done about our backcourt defense. Mo was terrible too.
