Hendo (Cho FA) 3-12 with point blank bricks
Mo (Cho trade) 4-16 filling in for Gary Neal just fine

Re: #Spacing - Steve Clifford Thread
Cho need to create a 15-man roster bulletproof to protect Clifford from trolling us with bad rotations and lineups consistently every game. Might be hard to do but it must be done. For instance Maxiell shouldn't have been signed.
They will wage war against the Lamb but the Lamb will triumph them because he is Lord of lords and King of kings - and with him will be his called, chosen and faithful followers." Revelation 17:14 (NIV)

Re: #Spacing - Steve Clifford Thread
No margin for error on this roster. We shot 34.6% from the field with plenty of point blank bricks and wide open misses. Now is that scheme or skill? How much more wide open did Hendo and MKG need to be? We are near dead last in offense with plenty of point blank bricks, wide open misses and wide open 3's. Scheme or skill?

Dude...give it up. We have plenty of players that can make shots (i.e. hairston, daniels,) that would fit perfectly between Kemba and MKG.

Dude give it up and you want to play Hairston and Daniels? A low IQ chucker and a filler in a trade.

Even the best coaches (Popovich) admit you are only as good as your players. Phil Jackson had MJ and Shaq and Kobe. What does he have now? An injured ball-hog surrounded by the D-league.

Buzz you are correct. There are ways to make it work and this roster has talent. Coaching needs a ton of work though.

Re: #Spacing - Steve Clifford Thread
Draft a 6'11 PF/C
play maxiel at center with 5 fouls when he was signed to be an end of rotation emergency backup
trade for mo williams to backup kemba
play mo and kemba at the same time to watch them get roasted by bigger backcourts
put lance/kemba/mo on the court together - entry passes to biyombo and maxiel because why not

Again with this low IQ BS? Hairston and Daniels are bonafide shooters (our best on the team), which is exactly what this team needs. Yet we play Hendo and Lance night after night with the same results. All skill right?

PJ barely hit 30% when he played his minutes. All coaching huh?

Who picked up Maxiell off the scrap heap?
Your resident dumpster diver, that's who.

PJ doesn't pass the ball. You think defenses didn't know that?

well, outside of marvin everyone is shooting worse than they were last year so sure why not
PJ at 30% (lets forgive the obtuse intent here) was still better on both sides of the court than gary neal at the time. pj was also improving before being banished to shadow realm...
but hey - lets talk about the decision to put kemba/lance/mo/marvin/max on the court at the same time against chicago's front court while being dragged into a halfcourt game while somehow only managing 1 total assist in the 2nd half

Clifford is a disaster. I was hopeful he would get better as he showed he could learn but it looks like he has learned nothing. Our shooters can't get good looks because we run no solid offense.

Our "shooters" 
That reminds me, Cho covered his little Roberts turd, didn't he? And he covered his Neal turd with Mo. Mo was 4-16.
