I'm going to wait awhile, right now I'd just give -6 to Tucker and call it quits. I'm so sick of watching him force those shots. It was agonizing watching him fight for the rebound and then instead of kicking it to a wide open shooter, he'd force it up in a congested lane only to have to fight again to grab the board and repeat the process. But I also know I'd have given him the +3 if he'd made one of those shots so I'll wait a few hours and let the anger die down. Oh my, if he only had a brain.

Tucker blew the game down the stretch with two really key turnovers. Don't think I can give him a positive.

+3 Bledsoe
+2 Booker
+1 Knight

-1 Chriss

+3 Bledsoe

-3 Tucker (played great but finished stupid)
-3 Chandler (stood flatfooted and gave up crucial Off Rebounds in the clutch moments)

Couldn't watch the end of the game but my thoughts are:

- Book started well but shot himself out of it with bad shot selection. It only takes one or two bad shots to get you out of rhythm

- Bled is such a god at drawing jump shot fouls like Harden.

- PJ is the least coordinated downhill player in the league.

- BK looks good when he attacks.

- TJ is still showing positive signs, just not as consistently as we would like.

+3 Bledsoe
+2 Booker
+1 Len

Knight had a decent game as well. Tucker with the dumb technical because he can't control his complaining and two bad turnovers in the 4th Quarter as well as whatever that was at the end of the game. Warren pretending he's a magician again with his disappearing act. It's very clear to me we need a large upgrade at the 3. Josh Jackson, here we come.

I had no doubt he was going to pick up a T last night, it was obvious in the first quarter. I can't remember the play but it was at worst a 50-50 call and Tucker went ballistic as usual and the ref came within a heartbeat of nailing him then. When that happens, you know the next time he's going to be much quicker with that whistle and with Tucker, there is always a next time. But it isn't just the small forward spot. We need a huge upgrade along the entire front line (yes, even over Chandler), once again we have to be staring at the worst starting front court in the NBA.

+3 Bledsoe
+2 Tucker (dumb at end but we would never have been there without him)
+1 Booker

Bledsoe and Booker put up the points but the turnovers kill us...10 between the 2 of them. Tucker had some untimely ones but he was by far our biggest + player

-3 Warren
-3 Chriss
