WAS @ IND 7 PM EST - Continue the tank amidst opportunity 

Post#1 » by FAH1223 » Thu Mar 29, 2012 3:49 pm

With some of the fellow bottom dwellers continuing to win, we must stay the course to gain seperation.

IND is coming off a huge W against Miami but an L to the Nets. This game should be over quickly.

But Indy lost to the Nets and we played them well in DC last week. We stand a chance, but even if we're in this game, we'll probably blow it late (as usual).

I think we're due for a good blowout loss especially on the road but thats more so due to the offensive ineptitude of players on the wings

Indiana played last night, losing in New Jersey. The Wizards are on two days rest. There's a good chance we compete in this one. Nobody played more than 30 minutes in the NJ game, however.

Paul George presents a huge matchup problem for us. He's 6-8 and we "guard" him with the 6-4 Jordan Crawford.

Yeah, Singleton can do a nice job blanketing Granger, but we don't have someone to match up with George.

That said, Crawford outplayed him last time.

Singleton did a solid job last time until the very end where he got
lost on a play that ended up with Granger getting a clean look on
what ended up being the go ahead 3.

I think we lose this one because we're on the road.

I think we lose because we're not very good compared to IND
and we may not even be at full strength

Over-matched. Nene probably out and Seraphins back-up is Vesely? The Pacers will not repeat their last performance against us.

Is Singleton going to turn it over every time he handles the ball?

Singleton on an NBA court is like a little boy in a big man's world. We could have had Faried :(

Terrible call, there is no way that was a foul.

Blatant flop. The refs are such suckers.

It's amazing to me how different this team looks on defense since the trade. If this team can find a way to get some consistent scoring from the wings they could make a pretty big leap next season.

Do we have another rookie ref tonight. We seem to get one every game.
