AD averaging 24.8 points 13 rebounds 4.2 blks 2.5 SPG. I don't even want to see what he's going to do to Boozer tonight.....

bws94 · Post #8 » by **bws94** » Wed Nov 12, 2014 4:04 pm

How many poke in the back fouls does Boozer get this game? 2? 3? 4?

We gotta keep these teams off the free throw line and also get some production from our bench. Also these refs gotta call these fouls on Kobe. Man its like the refs are giving him payback for all the years of death stares lol

I like Wesley. I don't know why, but I do. He showed some signs in the last game. Wasn't invisible. Knocked down some 3 pointers, made a nice athletic dunk off a steal and got fouled that wasn't called, deflected a lot of passes. Now if he can start cutting to the basket to receive some lobs, then he can be really productive. Don't create Wesley, that's where he gets in trouble.

AD and Asik, Lin, take mid-range shots but watch AD, he blocks those too and I see him blocking some of HIll's. Boozer, maybe not as he puts the ball way behind his head with a high arc, so maybe Boozer will do something decent tonight. Kobe's minutes? There's a game Friday so maybe limit them to 35 tonight. Bench has to play better than last night, maybe X finds something.

if you've watched Wesley before last night you'd know by now that every once in a while he has a good game like this and then disappears over the next ten.

Kobe should pass the ball a bit more.

Wes has got to play more like a teyshaun prince/rip hamilton hybrid. lockdown d or anything that looks like it... and a catch and shoot kinda guy... baseline cuts for easy lay ins... and just keep running... use your athleticism for crying out loud.

Heres hoping for a quadruple double from Davis of 25 pts, 11 rebounds, 10 assist, and 10 blocks.

I'm not too worried about AD but I'm worried about Ryan Anderson raining 3 pointers on us. He's been doing it these last couple of games, and he's been doing it well.

Going to take a miracle for us to win this game....

LApwnd · Post #18 » by **LApwnd** » Wed Nov 12, 2014 9:13 pm

are we getting punished for all the years of success or something? I mean dam we're not a good team to begin with but yet start of the year with the most b2b and not only that but we haven't played ONE bad team yet, granted the "bad" is subjective but so far we've either played playoff teams or playoff contending teams (Pho). This is ridiculous.

It's getting ridiculous, how old is he?

Exactly, can't wait when him and Lin develop some chemistry.

No kidding, they should run more, with Hill at the center position, Kobe has been running the break very well; Lin is terrific at it and if they start Ed Davis! (TBF, Boozer has been hitting some shots lately)

You talking about Ed Davis... :wink:

Maybe he gets to start tonight and do just that! :nod:

If Ed Davis was still on the Raptors, they'd be arguing if he's better than Anthony Davis.
