On paper we should blow this team out. And we are.

Honestly Im not seeing much of an impact from Wall. His defense hasn't been nearly as impressive as it was vs ATL and he finished -10 in only 11 minutes.

Oh I am, the team is clearly still riding the high of his return, he's taken it from end to end on a fast break at least once already---that was missing--- and he's been to the free throw line about five times already. But, if you don't see it...

Teams are going to begin again to give John open looks, he does NOT want to shoot jumpers.

He should've called it just before they cut the lead to eleven.

Essh Wall's jumper is soo broken. I'm embarrassed for him. Orlando gave him about 7 feet of space.

...Let me rephrase... Walls positive impact, which yes I can see... is being overshadowed by his lackadaisical defense and inefficient shooting.

A HS coach would have known to do that.

Emeka trade value ++

Color me impressed with AJ

Can we keep Webster a couple years?

Beal's mid-range game is noticeably smoother.

Okafor has definitely grown on me. Without him the rebounding would take a major hit.

I love you Beal

Love Beal. That floater is working.

Beal is having a fantastic game.

Halcyon · Post #115 » by **Halcyon** » Tue Jan 15, 2013 1:36 am

BEAL WITH IT

I think we have to be careful what we wish for with an Okafor trade. I really don't think Seraphin can give us close to what Emeka has been giving on a nightly basis.

Just too bad his contract is so terrible

I wonder what is going through Crawford's mind right now.

Okafor Beasting

They got by on adrenline for the 1st one but then you start realizing that these guys havent played in months and are out of shape while everyone else is flying around in midseason groove. It leads to turnovers until you get use to the tempo again. His overall tempo & feel for the game will be up & down atleast for 2 weeks. I hope for better but you can understand if he's not there yet

This is true. If you weren't expecting Wall to be rusty, you aren't paying attention.
