So much? he allowed Duhon to play 28min.... so much..... :lol:

I wouldn't mind seeing Duhon shot out of a cannon either, but whaddyagonnado? He's on the team. He's paid too much not to be.

Just rotation mistakes???? do you see our offense????

Eh 4 shooters, 1 big guy, and a handicapped point guard? Tough to have consistent offense unless the 3 ball is falling.

Which is on Stan as well as Otis. cause we have Wafer and Ish who could get in the paint. so, we don't HAVE to shoot threes... also Liggins looks like he's willing to drive. what I blame Otis on is that those guys aren't exactly the best at doing that... but, we have them, so, **** use them..... :roll:

Why didn't Liggins play? As bad as we were playing in the first half, I don't understand why he wasn't in there.

Ish hasn't been here that long....doesn't even practice with the 1st or 2nd team....i believe he doesn't even participate in the walk-throughs....and yet....he is a better player than Duhon and more of a PG than Jameer....i'm not saying he should Start or anything that's too crazy but he should play over duhon clearly.....I don't know his stats off hand but he had an Ok game and he was still better than anything Duhon has done in the past 10 games.....Speed kills in this league and Ish got it....worked the pick and roll and got 2 or 3 easy buckets just because he's that fast.....how can you not play this kid when he fits so well in this offense?.....

Didn't know that, my heart is lifted already. :)

I so can't wait for it too... I just know someone is going to be on the move, and it has to be one of the players that have a TRE trade restriction... I hope we can get Ellis :pray:... part XII of the Speculation thread is going to fill up so fast during those two weeks

:-? sigh ... i just don't get why Duhon plays so much... or Hedo gets so many shots... Stan is a great coach, but man does his rotations suck

Our top +/- guys at the end were Hedo (+4) and Duhon (tied with Ryan at +1). Of all the stats, why was that one added to official box scores again?
11/18/2017 - I have officially disowned Nikola Vucevic and branded him a loser.

- Skal Labissiere was my guy in 2016 pre-trade. Whoops, but I still believe.
- Malik Monk was my guy in 2017. Whoops(?)
- Mo Bamba was my guy in 2018. TBD.

I tried being optimistic, but, we struggle against these teams, and we do have athletes on the bench, we just don't use them.

It's not an excuse, it's reality. Duhon could be leaving soon, however, if you know what I mean. coughHowardtrade
