Ill never understand how we have so many games where the WHOLE TEAM goes cold. I mean if one person goes cold, how does that spread to the whole team?

Why won't our media press Stan about Duhon more?

ryan hedges too aggressively, throws our defense out of rhythm and sometimes puts the team in rotation mode.

Yes he does. His awareness on both ends leaves a lot to be desired despite what his statistics say on offense that makes him this "uber-efficient" player.

because the bad play of one person and the bad decision of one coach, has a huge effect on the other players. you don't think the players are questioning why duhon was in the game for that long (yes it was only 3 minutes)? he should have been pulled as soon as the backcourt violation happened.

As bad as our offense has been, we've played good D. Those 2 jumpers by Barbosa really blew the game open into a 10 point lead. The Magic have to remain poised and play harder on defense.

I really don't what they could do differently on offense. Keep running pick n roll and just pray someone gets hot from behind 3.

This crowd hates him. He ruined the game. We were up 16 to 10, then Duhon comes in and he loses the ball multiple times and costs us the lead. I don't even know if this post will go through, but I'm so MAD right now. So heated. I HATE Duhon. I hope he gets hit by a semi-truck, F him. Ruined the flow of the game, and sucked the life out of the team. And SVG is an idiot for constantly playing him. Dumb.

lol, at this rate, we'd be better off letting glen davis play pg against hibbert.

Getting some nice play out of Jameer, feel bad for him that he has to correct the mess Duhon's sorry ass made.

We need to just go up strong instead of looking for the shot blocker. We are pump faking too much.

We can't even score at the rim or on fastbreaks. It's pathetic. The lack of athleticism hurts us once we're at the rim.

I will say this about Ryno, his energy and focus is so much better today. Please keep it up, you can do more besides just looking to shoot 3's.
