things i'd like to see, besides a win.

rebounding from anyone not named emeka. carroll and dudley getting more than 5 minutes. a sign that the first two games were simply a team getting used to a new system and getting rid of old bad habbits.

So what happens if Larry Brown says to everyone:

You shoot more than 1 jumpshot in the same quarter and you are benched until the next quarter. That's it.

Period. No exceptions.

Drive. Drive. Drive. If you drive and get blocked, that's too bad, drive again. Drive and dish. Dish and drive. Pass and cut and catch and drive. Just drive. Drive and throw yourself at the opponent looking for a foul. Drive and avoid the opponent, trying to hit the shot. Drive and trip and fall but if you drive you are staying in the game. You shoot jump shots, you get yanked quickly and remorselessly.

I mean, why the hell not? It's preseason. And I wonder what the results would be...

that would be awesome fun to watch.... can you see may getting the ball kicked out to him at the 3pt line for a wide open shot and he starts to pull the trigger and at the last minute he see LB glaring at him so he puts the ball on the floor and runs straight at 5 hawks like a bowling ball.

Eight minutes into the 1st quarter, we are forced to forfeit the game after we are unable to send five players out there.

Or we see a lot of the Mohammed/Okafor/Hollins/Davidson/Brown lineup.

I'm down with that line up. Not sure who brings the ball up, but hey, it's worth a shot. Maybe Davidson always wanted to be a point-forward, or, like, something different.

May as a human bowling ball.

Yes.

I mean, just, yes. That's full of win.

So what if he fouls out via charging.

He's gonna do a LOT of damage first!

Like that scene in Hook! Bangarang!

I wonder how long it will be before LB starts to tighten up the rotations? I want to see guys getting steady and soild mins.

Post #11 » by **fatlever** » Mon Oct 13, 2008 9:39 pm

i think he may give the 3 unguaranteed guys some burn again tonight since this is their last chance.

Someone remind me which UNC game it was that Roy Williams said "Anyone who shoots outside the painted area is sitting down next to me," I remember it clearly (except for who they were playing)

fluffernutter · Post #13 » by **fluffernutter** » Mon Oct 13, 2008 11:26 pm

Looking sharper for sure...Felton 5 assists in 7 minutes...that's gonna set a record by the 3rd quarter sometime...

Post #14 » by **BigSlam** » Mon Oct 13, 2008 11:38 pm

We are yet to go to the line, but are shooting 50% from the floor.

Felts with 6 assists, 3 steals, 0/1 from the floor plus 1 board in 10 mins.................and zero turn overs!

Post #15 » by **BigSlam** » Mon Oct 13, 2008 11:46 pm

Lex checks in and picks up 2 fouls in 55 secs.................then on the next play, dunks the ball!!

Post #16 » by **BigSlam** » Mon Oct 13, 2008 11:49 pm

Lex has now been in for 2:10 and has 3 fouls!! Should just leave him in and see if he'll foul out in 1 qtr!!

Post #17 » by **BigSlam** » Mon Oct 13, 2008 11:57 pm

5 1/2 mins to go in the 2nd and we go to the line for the 1st time in the game.

The Hawks have had 15 shots from the line.
