Good teams know how to win/close out games when they are up. We don't have that belief in ourselves yet.

Speaking of horrible matchups I liked how during our fourth quarter collapse we had Augustin, Carroll, and Morrison all in at once with Dudley at the 5. Too bad we don't play this lineup of defensive specialist more often, we might actually win more games.

On the officail site in galerry there is a (pretty good on our standards) picture including Natasha. Is it from different game or what?

It looks like the "four quarter collapse" came after that group broke up. Only Dudley, then Morrison or Augustin (Augustin subbed in for Morrison) were out there when the team failed to score for about seven minutes.
I think that group you speak about broke up when it was a one-point game. Seeing as how players from that group scored all but five of our team's points in the 4th, they probably should have left them out there. Looks like the defense didn't get much better with mainly starters out there, but the offense completely vanished.

Eh I just think it was a pretty gutsy playing that lineup in the midst of 26 point slide. Regardless of how bad our starters were playing though you've got to admit having all of these guys in at once is a little scary. But the way things were going, maybe if we would have left them in we wouldn't have lost by as much, but who knows. Hopefully we won't have to see this very often in future games.

you talking about this pic?

the brunette? that is not natasha. there are at least 20 lady cats overall and only 11 were there today. natasha wasnt one of the 11. they rarely have all 20 at any one game.

My guess is that the 9 missing today were either in Orlando still at Steve's or back from Orlando but still too exhausted from being at Steve's.
All except for Natasha - who I'm pretty sure is still tied up in Spectre's basement.

Potential plot for the AM Comic #5?
Thanks dude. Glad to force you to use all CAPS. or hold Shift. either way...thanks. I hope to make a 5th AMC. Though, Torassic Park is a good enough story line to make a complete comic out of...

Sorry, fat. I was falling asleep and apparently didn't distinguish details as I probably should. Maybe Spectre could post some up to date pictures from the basement.

Yea you're crazy! Curry is too slow to guard Bosh...or anyone

Re: GT: Charlotte v. Toronto 1:00pm 10/9
thanks. just checking.
the raptors are a tough matchup. when they put bosh and bargs on the floor at the same time how do you defend that? with bigs who will be beat off the dribble or with smaller players who will get abused down low? we tried everything, dudley on bosh, wallace on bosh, okafor on bosh, andre brown on bosh etc...

We need someone who isn't afraid to catch and dunk in the post. I wish there was a way to get Amir and Maxiell from the Pistons...

Ugh.... Mek looked like he was running on sand, especially in the second half, you could tell he was sick. And since he is the only legitimate big on the team it shows when he is gone. Maybe Nazr could have helped, but LB doesn't seem to like him. Wouldn't mind seeing a bit more of Andre Brown in a game like this...
Still no 3pointers for Hammer
Although I believe both of his FG's were threes with his foot on the line....
Lex is not 7'0 btw, when he stands next to Bargnani or Hollins he looks clearly taller...
I'm predicting it right now, Augustin will be starting by the end of the season....
If Mek isn't sick I think we win, we really can't afford to be without him.
