I still think we can end up pulling this one out, but they have to make adjustments on defense and please quit experimenting with small ball. Whenever Doc tries it and it doesn't work he always has a look on his face like he doesn't get why.

Doc, did you see Mo call that time out? Do you understand the reason? Do you know what momentum is? perhaps you should look it up in the dictionary?

Posey isn't a PF on many teams either.

I don't think Doc even knows he's playing small ball. I think he sees Posey as a 4, which is ridiculous.

Perk is killing me. Is he really so dense that he cannot figure out how to stop bringing the ball down to his knees before he shoots it.

Really dumb foul (if he even fouled him, hard to tell live-- how about a replay comcast???).

anyone else pulling out their hair that philly is shooting such a high percentage against us and that we are missing so many wide open shots ? why are the under .500 teams playing so well against us ?

there is a serious disfunction with this team right now.

This team is SOFT...just getting out muscled by Evans and Dalembert, two career scrubs...

All of us notice Perk bringing the ball down every game so surely the coaches catch that. Yet it doesn't change.

Yeah, he does not sound all that bright. I really do not think these is a worse habit than what perk has. I wish he would break it.

sad thing about perk is he has the drive, intensity, body and muscle. but still insists in goind down then up so someone has a chance at hacking him or stripping him.

Tommy mentioned this. What he said is that they were trying to break him of the habit. He would easily score 3-5 more buckets a game if he just kept the ball above his numbers.

That is exactly right, hack or strip. The problem is when you hack perk and he goes to the line he is WORSE from the line than he is from the field. I mean he shoot 0.553 from the line. That is laughably bad..

What a surprise. We go on a run when we have some actual size in the game.

And I know that Doc and the coaches have tried to work with Perk on bringing the ball down. Maybe he feels that he wont get up high enough when he doesn't gather? I don't know.

He does not have to dunk the ball every time!! I lay up works just as well. Big baby is a perfect example. I am not even sure he can dunk but he gets the ball away pretty quickly.
