We'd be doing well if we had shown up for the first 5-6mins....

I'm liking Andre Brown. I hope he sticks around. I don't know how many roster spaces we have left, but hopefully we can retain him. If we gotta get rid of somebody, cut Hollins loose already, I'm tired of waiting for him to develop. After a few years in the league, you figure he'd learn how to keep from fouling out in 3 minutes by now.

They realize they don't have to let the other team back in it, right? It sure would be nice to have that six-point lead with a minute or so left actually "balloon" up to double digits for once, instead of shrinking to 0.

Oh well. I guess we were no match for Matt Barnes, Boris Diaw, and the Croatian national team.

Aw ****! My Bad B-slam. There was a flood in my basement, and the wires, laptop, unavailable, thing.

I actually didn't know we had a game, and judging by the game, I think the team forgot too. I know there's a game tomorrow.

Making the thread now.

BTW. Good job BS. I like the GT.

I can live w/ DJ's Rookie mistakes - he'll learn fron them. Ray just makes the same costly errors over and over again. I'd rather let DJ learn on the job, get a serviceable backup, and trade Ray and whatever bench player is needed to get us a quality PF. I've seen enough to know I've seen enough!

Man, at this point there's so many questions. Who knows what the final rotation will look like. I know it must be burning Brown up knowing he hasn't had a win yet in 6 tries. They need to beat the Lakers to get some kind of confidence heading into the regular season.

The poor shooting % needs to be fixed though. Why don't they just run our PG's at the rim during practice for an hour and have Okafor and Wallace in their way to try and block everything? We'll either get better at defending shots or better at not missing layups. :-)

I didn't see this, but based on the Yahoo play by play, the Bobcats really gave this one away. Were leading by 6 with about 2 minutes left in first OT, but had many chances to increase the lead. During the last OT, there were several TOs by Felton, including with 2 seconds left, stepping out of bounds to end the game. :-? His +/- was -15. There was also a backcourt violation thrown in and I am sure several other highlights I forget.
