Did you know David Lee, Lamar Odom, Chris Kaman are all over 6'10 and have the same wingspan of 7'0?

Why do I mention this? Jon Leuer has a 7 foot wingspan too! He's a good shooter. And he's 7 feet. And unless something changed he;s starting. Tweener Ilyasova comes off the bench.

Leuer is is garbage. Bogut is only worth Marvin, Zaza, and picks. They will beat us because of people not named Bogut and Leuer. Get up off of your knees for Bogut and Leuer.

Ignored

but at any rate I said it before the season began

Jeff, Joe, Josh would better be served
(starting Leuer + Bogut + Benching Marvin) > as opposed to starting Marvin + Horford

Ignored, and I will say it again, your man crush is sad.

Let's Go Hawks! We are going to lose but please fight the good fight

Superiorblogman · Post #13 » by **Superiorblogman** » Tue Jan 24, 2012 1:27 am

Teague doing early work. We were up 11 when he went out in the 1st. Let's see how this works out with him on the bench.

Superiorblogman · Post #14 » by **Superiorblogman** » Tue Jan 24, 2012 1:36 am

Up 6 after 1 quarter after being up 11 before taking Teague out. The bench and Joe have been garbage so far. Josh is taking bad shots as usual. Not looking steady for the long ride.

Pargo just hit a couple of nice shots, I think that 14 point game on Saturday is carrying over for him.

Ruhiel · Post #16 » by **Ruhiel** » Tue Jan 24, 2012 1:45 am

Need to put Smith and Teague back in asap no athleticism. Drew seems to be using them to counter MIL's starters.

Skiles vs Drew, trying to see who wins the battle of the bench and makes the other resort to starters first.

Post #17 » by **ATL Boy** » Tue Jan 24, 2012 1:47 am

We're getting killed on the boards, we can't even get a defensive board it seems like.

Superiorblogman · Post #18 » by **Superiorblogman** » Tue Jan 24, 2012 2:09 am

Joe Johnson is horrible and games like this show how +- ratios mean nothing.

Josh +10
Joe +7
Teague+4

Joe has clearly been the worse of the 3 and arguably the worse starter this game. Joe is just a stat sheet stuffer against lessor opponents.

More like he sees Kirkland warming up on the practice courts.

Zaza has made Bogut look very ordinary out there.
