: Jax. Really wasn't a great game for him because of some of the mistakes and allowing Salmons to do what he did, but who cares!!

: TC. Slim pickings tonight, so for the back tap you get the Silver.

: Hulk. Had a huge impact when you were in.

Gold: Jax

Silver: TC

Bronze: Graham

Gold: Jax
Silver: TC (O-REB!)
Bronze: Felton

HM: DJ and Graham played awesome in their bench roles. This is exactly what we need these guys to do in these big games. Graham never disappoints me, I don't know why we play Hughes over him.

Gold-Jax
Silver-TC
Bronze-Graham
Hammer-DJ

Jax
Tyson
Felts (not a great shooting night, but really was the catalyst in the OT, and did hit some big shots near the end. Also clutch FT shooting.)

3 - Jack
2 - Chandler
1 - Felton

Ditto. Plus an HM to Graham.

3 - felton: his defense on jennings was fantastic
2 - jax: huge scoring, but too many awful turnovers and a 3q meltdown (thanks to hulk for the resque)
1 - chandler: solid defense on bogut and solid team defense getting out on p&r, great tap out.

hm: ratliff, hulk (thanks for the rescue)

man... you guys are really selling ray short tonight. dont look at his fg%. it was all about cutting off penetration. jennings didnt beat ray off the dribble all night.

I didn't even realize he had taken 15 shots and only hit 4 TBH.

For me it's that he could have done so much more and he didn't. That could be a product of the coach and the game plan, but he really didn't stand out as much as the others...............or like he could have IMO.

Oh, and I don't think that Jennings is all that any ways. I'd rather him shoot all night.

it wasnt about keeping jennings from shooting... it was about keeping him out of the lane, keeping him from causing havoc for our help defense. if jennings beats ray off the dribble all night, then our bigs have to help leaving bogut free or our wings have to help leaving their many shooters wide open.

I think you are giving Jennings too much credit.

I think that game could've been different if we exploited Felton on Jennings earlier. I know he didn't make a few shots (game winner in regulation, miss in OT) but he was our only reliable option at one point. And him getting into the paint, even if he misses we can get easy put backs like Pussyfoot did in OT.

GOD YES!!

I screamed for it all game. It was obvious that the smack addict couldn't hang with Felts. So who do we blame here? Felts for not abusing him on both ends, or LB for not allowing him to?

I know where I think the break down occurred.

(and for those needing queue cards he wasn't on the court after the half)
