Actually, yeah. I kinda thought that was an obvious exaggeration. But at least the 2 points is on 1 for 3 shooting. He gives us a healthy 33% from inside the 3pt line!

I'm really starting to doubt that we keep Webster after this season. He WILL have opportunities to go to a contender, I'm sure.


Why would Webster come back?

On top of that I expect Ariza to opt out. I also think Okafor could also be gone after this season.

I'm really disappointed in the defense. I thought they'd contain Cleveland much better. Cleveland shouldn't be scoring this much with Irving out. Too much Shaun Livingston, and too many offensive boards.

Deck chairs on the titanic, forest through the trees, whatever........but you can't tell me there aren't better SGs sitting on their asses somewhere than Temple and Martin. Love them both, good team guys, but they are both bad basketball players.

It's pretty embarrassing to have a guy as bad as temple playing 20+ minutes for your team. Good thing we gave away our only backup SG that can play basketball away for nothing.

Doesn't bother me much. Crawford wasn't that good either and he sucked on D. Temple is clearly a stopgap, but he's a stopgap who at least plays the right way which helps to build a better chemistry.

Can somebody wake up Trevor Ariza?

theres like no effort out there. Its nice to have veterans that "have their head on straight" but when they half ass their way out there what chance do you have against a young team that actually wants to win. I feel like our "veterans" don't even really care all that much at times.

I'm not too disappointed. This how you keep the tank rolling.

At this point, no reason not to have Wall in even with fouls, we're down be 11 on the road

This is a masterful tank. Wittman is truly a tank artiste and should receive the Medal of Honor for his bravery in putting out Collins like that so early.

Thooper! Give him a participation trophy! Just don't play him with Wall... EVER.

Don't get me wrong. The defense sucks tonight. I'm just saying that in the 3rd quarter, we got good shots but just couldn't make any.

CCJ, you are right. This is definitely a "surgical tank", as hands11 would describe it.

Too bad we didn't find someone like that Alonzo Gee dude. He woulda been a great pickup as a nice stopgap...

C'mon, how can you not be happy with this team? Once Booker gets his timing back, we'll be unstoppable. You can only imagine how much that's holding the team back.
