This is probably going to be ugly...can't wait to watch, though.

I just hope the game isn't over by the 1st quarter.

I want to see how Evans will perform tonight as a point guard/shooting guard majority of the time.

Casspi facing gametime decision due to ankle implications:

Spoke with Omri Casspi today. He turned his left ankle in past few days and will be a gametime decision.

Well, not too bad of a start. I wish Tyreke would pentrate more, and I'm not a fan of the early rebounding deficit, but not too bad at all so far all things considered.

Not allowed here.

Ugh...well low and behold--the team starts losing more when we put in a lineup with crappy talent. I'd say we're seeing a good argument right now for bringing either Spence or Jason off the bench.

We could be playing Brock though. That would be nice.

Yeah, who would have thought a May/Thomas frontcourt sucks! Put in Brockman you bozo! :evil:

Casspi was questionable coming into tonight.

Post #15 » by **KF10** » Sun Nov 8, 2009 2:44 am

Wow, what a crappy lineup. Sergio, Udoka, Donte, Thompson, May on the floor?

rofl at Matthews lighting up the Kings. (He was actually decent in the Kings SL roster)

Nice little spurt by Evans.

We're not looking too bad. The defense has picked a bit so you have to like that.

Tough to complain about the last few minutes--even if it perhaps has been more a case of Utah playing bad than us playing all that well. But the zone seems to mostly be working. Offensively, there's very clearly something that's working for us right--working inside out. Attack the rim, kick out if it's there. The pull-up shouldn't be a big part of Tyreke's game right now--especially when he's as capable as he is driving.

Greene looks good
