I said before the game that beating a team 3 times in a month is hard as hell.

At least we won't sleep on NYK at home on Saturday.

Ninja repeat mid-foot sprain worries the sh*t out of me, won't be surprised if he's out a few weeks.

Figures Andre would miss a jumper now.

I'm sorry but nah, hell nah. Dwight did his part, fought, played some good D. It's basically their PG > our PG that was the main reason we lost. I like Nelson but it feels like any of the decent PG's in this league can burn him with ease, it's like he's 10 going up against 17 year old kids, he's getting destroyed. I wanted Andre, didn't happen.

The playoffs are going to upset many of us, don't be surprised if we lose out in the first round. Calderon will rip Nelson apart.

Stan's expressions physically pain's me, his pain is ours.

we lost because of not making shots, and giving up 52pts 14assist to miller and green

Was Dwight even on the floor in the fourth quarter? I honestly couldn't tell. The kid couldn't of been more invisible.

Yea, nevermind the not making a shot for 9 mins, turning it over 20 times, sucking in crunch time, getting jobbed a little by the refs (still woulda lost), it's strictly because their PG owns our PG. Yes its a reason but still.. Dwight sucked on offense too, his D was pretty good.

Its pretty simple...Our biggest flaw is the defense of our backcourt.

And you cannot blame dwight for not scoring in the last 3 quarters when he wasnt getting the ball and jj is chucking like none other.

JJ=10 shots in 10 minutes.

Turk=12 shots in 39 minutes.

that should tell you something.

I disagree. Nobody played well enough for us to win tonight. Some were worse than others, but Dwight wasnt one of them IMO.

AdamTheGreek · Post #531 » by **AdamTheGreek** » Thu Feb 28, 2008 2:25 am

Has Dwight always had that black silver undershirt? Looks sicker than his white one.

oakfanintheeast · Post #532 » by **oakfanintheeast** » Thu Feb 28, 2008 2:25 am

JJ is arroyoeque looking for his own. Sixers announcers hammering nelson defensively.

we need to upgrade the pg spot.

JJ was hot so he took some shots. Didn't really force anything up there that was too bad of a shot.

oakfanintheeast · Post #535 » by **oakfanintheeast** » Thu Feb 28, 2008 2:27 am

orlando should cut nelson.

lol JJ was chuckzilla...

AdamTheGreek · Post #537 » by **AdamTheGreek** » Thu Feb 28, 2008 2:27 am

Of course Dwight could've had the ball more, but it's very discouraging when he's missing so many from close range.

We can win games with no offense from Dwight. We cant compete when guys are shooting right over our D and no defensive effort is being made.

Thanks again for not making any moves at the deadline, Otis. We definitely didn't need another big to help battle players like Evans down low. We definitely aren't softer than Charmin under the rim.

GOOD CALL OTIS!
