no wonder why stan doesnt play earl clark...He was horrible tonight

Yeah Earl Might not be ready just yet.....on one night he can affect the floor with his defense and energy and another night he'll have a stinker like tonight.....maybe some consistency could do him well...send him down to the d-league to get some seasoning....What's the use of seeing Harper and Orton/Liggins play only garbage time when they have the talent to contribute right now....send them down so we can see what they can do against competition and some real playing time.....

He was decent. At least I thought so.

Go Magic, Go Dwight, Go Vuc, Go Paolo, Go Keegan :)

I don't even know, man......I know we can't amnesty Hedo's bum a**, you can only use it once.

Most likely we're stuuck with both of these clowns until their contract ends, or at least become expirers.

can't amnesty him. He is only garuanteed $6 mil the season after next though. SO a trade next deadline with a first round pick and cash may get him off this roster.

The season after next?!

So that means we have at least 1 more full season with this idiot?!

Bleh, its just hard to accept that we will have all the players that are **** us over next year...we will pretty much only have room to make minor changes unless we get rid of Turk and J Rich...our only real hope is to fix our back up PG problem that might significantly make us better....maybe pray that Nash doesn't go to the heat and some how from the grace of heaven he signs with us so we can kick Duhon out for a bag of Cheetos and a Pretzel

And also, I believe the dunk is the easiest shot in the world :wink:

Who would you have go for a two though? To be honest, I prefer a three to win in that situation because Dallas probably would have killed us in OT - they took over when it mattered and that probably would have continued in the extra period.

Still, I can't believe Anderson missed that point-blank shot. Plenty of top teams draw up plays, miss the intended shot, then win or tie from a putback. I'm not even mad at this loss... much better than getting blown out. I think I'm just fed up with Ryno grabbing all these boards only to miss or get blocked on the follow up. I swear if he doesn't get bailed out with a foul then it doesn't end well. The sad part is he will probably improve that part of his game during the offseason and end up on Nets next year.

Yeah this sucks pretty bad for us, if you think about it.

Our future doesn't look too bright.......or at least, our immediate future doesn't. Boy, if we somehow found a way to get rid of JRick and Hedo, we would be in such a better position. I bet we wouldn't even miss either one of them.....

Well, it is annoying. I'll give you that. And so is Dwight not being able to make half of his FREE throws. You take the good with the bad, and hope it improves. Anderson failed to get the game to OT, but really the game fell apart because of Stan and his crappy rotations, and Hedo and JRich not even pretending to be good basketball players. Anderson is actually one of the good parts of this team, even if he doesn't always show up. And this time he actually did show up against a good team, so theres that.
