Damn shoulda seen this earlier, deleted my thread.....I don't want this on my record anyway.

Let's try something different....all these things WILL happen.

- Grizzlies are scary good at forcing turnovers. We suck at taking care of the ball. Expect 20+ TO's.
- Allen on Harden with our predictable offense = another bad night..
- Gasol can take Asik out a little, limiting his effectiveness. Zbo is murdering on the glass. 15+ tonight.
- No TJones again tonight, even with Morris/Patterson going 1-10 from three.
- Since Delfino shot OK last game, expect 3-14 from the field with an assortment of step back fadeaway jumpers, or halfcourt falling outta bounds flings at the basket with 14 on the shot clock.
- Toney Douglas will see the floor.

This will all result in a LOSS.

This being on NBATV means I don't get it on League Pass. Dammit.

And I'm hoping for On-The-Road Harden to make a valiant return. Upset brewing, people.

Lin is good.

Parsons is bad.

Sigh...Patterson and Parsons shooting threes.

Edit- They were wide open, but still...brick after brick.

Why isn't Harden driving to the basket?

Post #8 » by **TMACFORMVP** » Sat Nov 10, 2012 1:20 am

Harden bad start. Asik being a factor in the paint defensively..

Parsons defensively hasn't been as good as he was last season.

Harden is 1-11 from three last two games from three. 0-1 tonight.

Cook in for Lin? Are we giving Douglas the boot already?

Post #13 » by **TMACFORMVP** » Sat Nov 10, 2012 1:27 am

Woah, Cook the guard to sub in for Lin to play next to Harden. That's something that was thrown around in the last game thread.

omg patterson, one more random chuck and im going to slap you.

Patterson needs to DRIVE.

TheDream13 · Post #16 » by **TheDream13** » Sat Nov 10, 2012 1:34 am

First-quarter reflections: our defense is surprisingly great, anchored by Asik but contributed to by just about everyone. Even Lin is a deceptively good defender. That said, we need to double our paint attempts.

Morris was too small there, dammit.

phoenixx · Post #18 » by **phoenixx** » Sat Nov 10, 2012 1:35 am

had fouls to give just like in previous games, but didnt do anything with them.

Post #19 » by **TMACFORMVP** » Sat Nov 10, 2012 1:36 am

Now would Lin come in and play with Cook? Always having one of Lin or Harden on the floor..

Delfino such an idiot
