Interesting -- we've already seen Quincy and Fournier get some early action.

Nice, Shaw must have been reading some forums.

Only tricky part is JHam's been knocking down a ton of threes for us. I'll trade that for quality play from Fournier and Quincy though.

Choosing Foye over JHam is a misstep:

Do Fournier & Nate actually work at all in tandem? Fournier, Nate and Foye is a bad mix period.

3-pt shooting has been so ugly since Harrington & Co. were traded. Seems like at one apex over the past couple of seasons we at one point had a handful of very decent 3-pt shooters along with the big man compliment. Slowly each one went away, got injured, etc. and now I'm looking at 0 for whatever.

JHam in shortly. Expect heavy three shower late.

Foye gives me the same confidence in the team that I had when Anthony Carter played the 2 alongside Iverson.

layup line at the rim, why not sit your only center for 2 PFs that may be the worst interior defenders in the league.

Faried was having a nice game, then gets yanked so that previously mentioned forwards can lose the game for us?

Miller misses one rotation and is out for the rest of the game, foye made 1 rotation this month and is returned to being a starter?

I liked Shaw coming in, but whatever his problem is with the players already here when he got here, needs to change, they are the ones that understand how to win.

This season is quickly turning into a nightmare. We can't afford lose to teams like the Sixers at home.

Shaw has to find some consistency in his rotation. You can't expect guys to get into a rhythm when they don't even know their role on the team.

Not a good start to Shaw's career if he's clashing with players, even with my dislike for Andre Miller.

I have a sense Shaw is going to put his foot in his mouth approximately 10 times this season.

Karl said some ridiculous things, but he also delivered.

Here is my contention with Shaw: yes, we were tired of Karl being bumped in the 1st round, but if the head coach doesn't even know how to get some momentum and keep it.....there are no playoffs.

Could have retained Karl and requested Shaw's services as an assistant coach first to see how he worked.

Do I think it's panic-time? No, I'm not thinking like that - I am simply thinking if Shaw made it to the first round with this team would it even BE better than last year's Karl team? We're going on a promise that's not looking like it has any progress on being fulfilled.
