Well, I guess Dalembert, Evans, & Green must be playing pretty well. Nobody is posting anything. And no coaching instructions either :lol:

Very nice half of basketball thus far. Willie seems to have come out of his funk against his hometown team.

Wow ... If Willie, Reggie, & Sammy can play like this more regularly .... this team will make some noise in the playoffs.

Hmm... it looks a good first half based on the stats but it is a bit concerning that we out 58 on the Pistons in a half and are up only 6.

Also, both Toronto and Washington are up by 2 in their games at the half.

Well, what I am wondering is this ...

What could you have mean't to type in between the word WE and the 58 in your sentence ?

I see OUT in there and it makes no sense.

Whooops .... wait ... I think I figured it out ...

You mean't PUT !!!!

I apologize for my typographical error....

out=put

As for the 2nd half, I'd like to see us get up big real quick so that Flip Saunders throws in his scrubs.

Evans is such an instigator.... i love it!

That is a nice idea but sometimes the "scrubs" work hard and actually do better than a complacent group of "starters". Who knows ...

Willie needs to get back to playing the way he played in the 1st half. He's comes out here at the start of the 3rd and has had his shot blocked twice because he's tried taking the Pistons 1 on 5.

Willie has bounced back and got a couple of nice layups and so hopefully he this gets him back to playing solid overall ball.

Dumb foul Sammy...can't do those in the playoffs or this team is toast.

Post #34 » by **The Guilty Party** » Thu Apr 10, 2008 12:47 am

Well... that was a terrible series of events. We're up 4 and need to get our heads back into the game.

Didn't see any posts from you earlier so maybe you haven't been following the game ... but just so you know ...

Dalembert has 15 points on 7 or 10 shooting and 10 rebounds ...

Not a bad game at all ....

Other than the fouls, Sammy has had an awesome game.

10:30 to go and we're up 14. Things are looking good for this game. Unfortunately the Wizards are up 13 and the Raptors are up 10.

Iguodala has 4 3s in this game. If he can become more consistent with the longball, this transition to the 2 could really work.

Not that he's having a bad game, but he can't pick up stupid fouls in the playoffs...he's too big a piece of this team to be on the bench d/t silly plays. I know he's had a big game, but that doesn't mean he can't commit a stupid foul. Don't reach down to challenge a guard on a loose ball where there is no chance to gain possession.

Well, it looks like your wish is coming true. The bad news is Boston probably is doing the same thing.

Mo's gone back to the locker room with "the runs" so Jimmy Lynam is coaching the squad. Where's Hersey Hawkins? Bring in Mahorn? I miss that Gminksi jumper.

Oh how I loved that team.

So Mo goes to the locker room and BAM.... our lead goes from 14 to 7. I miss Mo Cheeks already.
