Another must win game

I think we'll probably still have Bogs and Jack out so it would be cool to give Brown another run in the starting lineup. He doesn't have the bulk to guard their SGs so maybe DWill can pick them up on the defensive end.

I know it will level out, but those two games of Thad is making me grin from ear to ear... it's been a while since we've had an athletic, aggressive player. watching him go after 50/50 balls, sticking with plays all the way through, and knowing when to take it to the rack had been a blast. I hope Hollins continues this usage of him and we can really utilize his strengths.

Hopefully TRob will be ready for this game, I'm excited for his added play. Since he gets signed on tuesday at 5pm he can probably be ready for atleast 1 practice which means he'll get like 10 minutes of time off the bench.

I feel that even with the Brow and Anderson out we need to use whatever size we can to our advantage. I see Lopez having a better game against Asik than Plumlee, and we'll need a similar game from Brown and Thad. We can win this, and we need a win like this... get ourselves ready for a bigger test in the rockets and the mavs

Need To take advantage of the fact that Davis and Anderson are out.

Should be a winnable game, but this is one I can see where we build up a 20 point lead and then win by 2 points. Because that's the history of our team. I want to be optimistic though, just this team leaves a bad flavor in your mouth and you can never be too optimistic with them.

Also LOL at that pic of Deron. He looks so out of shape there. I think the big beard looks much better on him, actually makes him look thinner.

Excited to see if Robinson can suit up and play, but I wouldn't bank on seeing him if Jefferson can get those minutes right now. We don't need Robinsion to play or as badly as we need a guy like Young.

I think, if Jack is ready to go, that Hollins needs to not play Dwill n jack together so much, preferably only a few spurts and closing it out. If we keep them two playing at the same time, we're losing Markel's ability to cover up the defensive flaws of the PGs... as well as athletic ability.

Just as Hollins avoided Plumlee n Lopez playing together, do the same with the PGs....

I think with Brown showing he has atleast somewhat of an ability on the court, especially from the defensive end I think he can properly do away with the Dwill + Jack pairing.

My main issue that needs to be remedied ASAP is not letting Morris hit the floor unless its garbage time, he makes me miss Gutz because atleast he had some BBIQ and didn't try too much, Gutz would just play hard and pass... Morris is just pure toxic.

Someone on the other site said that on the radio Hollins noted that if Jack was healthy yesterday, he'd probably be starting next to Deron. Allegedly before the game. Hopefully it was a lie.

TRobinson will probably be brought along slower than Thad. I think he's the sortof guy that has trouble remembering plays or naturally understanding where to be on the court. It's not like Young who's a vet, who's played in multiple system and understands the league.

MrDollarBills · Post #14 » by **MrDollarBills** » Tue Feb 24, 2015 6:31 pm

Hollins has to let Markel play, screw the damn two PG line up, let that guy play he makes things happen

all of the young guys aside from Karasev and Morris need to play, PERIOD.

Good game for Brown to earn a spot in the rotation. Whether he's guarding Tyreke or Gordon, he needs to prove he can hold his own. If we can trust him to guard athletic or skilled 1/2s - that would be huge. His 3pt shooting would be irrelevant. Defending and running the floor in transition would make him valuable.

Brown has no 3pt shooting lol...

If 'Kel can defend his position respectably, I don't give a damn. What he brings is what this team has lacked: motor, hunger, aggressiveness, and athleticism.

I had suspected that Deron might look better when playing with guys that will run the floor. We'll see if this is correct over these next few games.

I can't believe I'm actually excited to see these guys play again :lol:

I hope they don't let us down.

Let's keep it rolling! Going into Houston winning 3 in a row would be huge.
