What a waste of 2008 Al Jefferson. He probably wont show up again for at least another couple of weeks.

I would be castrated by a horde or monkeys, but only after McDonald's gives me a water instead of Sprite

We really need to get our outside shooters going. We can never make big threes when we need them.

Damn free throws cost us like a mother.

That point the refs took away from Brew wound up beings super costly.

This was a game they should have won. They played so well in the first half but didn't get rewarded.

Love and Flynn need to get more shots up. Corey Brewer should never have more FGA than them.

before the Hornet left Kahn please go to their locker room and present the following proposal:


you guys are a super small market, Paul just got injured who knows if he won't be injured again any time soon, he likely won't sign an extension with you guys, so why dont we do:

Corey Brewer + Sasha Pavlovic For Chris Paul?

so that these 3 players can save some air tickets and report to their respective team today

Why for Hornets: They really improve their defense with Brewer, and for Sasha, they got nothing to lose for him, he is one of the very few players in NBA that perform very consistantly everytime on the court, and he will never do worse than what you would expect from him

why for the wolves: We just need to improve FT, thanks

If we we had just a halfway reliable scorer from outside, a guy like a Randy Foye, 2006 Ricky Davis, or a Wally Z, we would have at least 2-3 more wins.

honestly I don't understand what Rambis is doing.. why isn't Love starting? I think it's obvious that a Jefferson/Love tandem works quite well. They only get a good amount of playing time to finish games. Why does he only get 7 shot attempts? Some of these things blow my mind. And why the hell is Corey Brewer still getting so many minutes and shots? Does Rambis not see him miss layup after layup and brick every 18 footer he takes? Sessions has 6 assists in 15 minutes, continues to play extremely well, and he gets very limited minutes... Why does Wilkins even get any playing time? Oh my god PLEASE bring back kevin mchale. /end rant

corey brewers position is particularly important in the offensive scheme we are attempting to run. the organization is trying to develop johnny flynn, and are against running a pg system... and in regards to wilkins, im not too sure either....

Randy Foye is super inconsistent. I don't really miss him. But yeah, I know what you mean. Our two best 3pt shooters are a PF (Love) and a converted PF (Gomes). Come on shorties...

Hopefully Ellington starts hitting his 3's soon...hopefully at least by next season he is a serious NBA 3pt threat.
