Sunday will be my birthday. And the Cats just gave me a 3 game losing streak. I think I'll return it to them. Maybe I can exchange it for another 6 game winning streak.

They aren't fooling you, and he is.
Here's my thoughts: He relies on his athletic ability and quickness way too much when he defends on ball. The thing that makes someone like Raja such a great defender is because he does most of his work before the ball is any where near the guy he is defending.
I swear Crash sags way off his man thinking to himself "well, if they swing the ball, I'm quick enough and athletic enough to close the gap". But a lot of the time, he isn't. No one is.
I love he kid and the effort he puts in, but he needs to work much harder off the ball on D and play smarter.
No way should Carney get 7 of the exact same wide open shots like that from the corners.

LOL that game was borderline unwatchable....oh never mind...it WAS unwatchable. I had to fast-forward through too much of the second half....it made me feel better.
Never in my life have I seen a "good" defensive team play with such dead feet.
If I see Emeka Okafor JUST ONE MORE TIME out at the 3 point line double teaming some little point guard while his man (Kevin Love in this case) is taking a wide open dunk I am going to shoot the dog. I mean spray the guts all over my big 60 incher.
For such a nice guy, EO50 sure is one dumb-ass. There I said it. I feel much better now.

Re: GT: Charlotte @ Minnesota 8:00pm
you guys pretty much covered it already... but damn that was some awful defense, mainly by wallace, diaw and okafor.
wallace just leaving guys all night long in the corner. okafor getting outplayed by love, making poor decision on his doubles and diaw just mailing it in.

Coming back from Huntersville to Boone, heard the score on 1660 ESPN radio at 2:00 AM and yelled "F***" really loud, even though there was no traffic on 321 I'm sure someone heard it.
Really disappointing, considering what the Bulls did. Guess it was too much to ask of this team this season.
