i have no idea what is adelman thinking
lowry milking the clock and shoot a jumper as time expired is not a good game plan

I could be wrong but i dont think thats a designed play. The play was probably broken and then Lowry tried to play hero.

you don't run the clock down to 7 sec and run your play

You do that at the end of regulation for the last shot. You dont want your opponent to get the ball back.

isn't that how we play in the 4th quarter? look at the clock till it hits 7 seconds, than start the play. if it gets broken or w/e we jack up a shot. in the eyes of rick adelman, it's a pretty good strategy...to LOSE THE **** GAME!!!!11111111111111111LKJ ;GFAJF DFJDSFJDFDF

not when you are up 2 and more than 1 min left on the clock

is that adelman or lowrys fault though, i think lowry played well but made a few poor deicisions, especially in the final 5 mins of the 4th and then ot....either way ft's cost us and scolas 2 missed close shots/lay ups but you cant blame him he played a huge amount of minutes - im just worried for tomorrows game with atlanta now seeing as though our starters played big minutes, hopefully williams might get a few mins in the rotation tomorrow

forget about playoff
start giving more min to hill, patterson, and twill
they need playing time to develop
if stubborn adelman keep playing his trusted players we are doom next season as well

I agree. We need to see who can play and who can't so we can start making moves. We aren't making the playoffs and even if we did it would most likely be a 4 or 5 game series.

I would like to see Jordan Hill start some games.

I would like to see Jordan Hill start some games.

He's started nine games at center this season, granted it's not a huge increase over his season average in terms of minutes, I'd much rather prefer to see an extended role with Patterson.

Anyways, another choke job. Our inability to close, make big shots, or play any semblance of defense has been the same story all season. For such a "potent," offensive team with a coach like Adelman, we sure do go through a lot of offensive droughts, and seemingly get absolutely NOTHING on crucial offensive possessions. And again, another game where the opponents big men took a dump on us. It's come to a point where it's now frustrating to watch - double digit leads don't even matter, because we're bound to choke it away, and there's no shot at all for us to close out the game.

- Why exactly did Brooks play only 15 mins and Budinger only 6?
- Looks like Jordan Hill experiment could be over and will be weeded out of the rotation
- Why the hell did Aaron Brooks play only 15 MINUTES?!??!

they were absolute terrible in the 2nd quarter
our starters playing very well in 3rd quarter
adelman, afraid to lose too many games and lost his job, so he kept starters playing till the last min

hills minutes were always going to be cut when hayes came back, dont think brooks played than many mins as jack was on fire and someone needed to guard paul so lowry stayed in. Martin played well to and battier is always going to get his minutes so no real room for brooks today although he should have gotten more mins imo

No room for AB? Last years MIP!!! Brooks hardly played the entire 2nd half!
Our starters are not THAT good to warrant 45min of gametime.

[inquisitive]

What we really need is a decent center. We should be looking for a center. Hopefully we get one by the deadline. That block by Okafor kinda revived the Hornets last nite.
