Why did Atlanta have to turn into the Golden State of the East this season? These guys made it look easy.

Watch Casey start Ross coming out of the half.

Lowry needs to dial it down a notch.

Oh, and Derozan and James Johnson are keeping us in it right now.

I defend Casey a lot. BUT...if Ross starts over JJ next game then he truly doesn't know what he's doing. He puts so much faith in Ross and keeps on playing him as a starter....which results in us playing from behind.

I wonder if JJ can shoot the long two, he can not shoot the 3 we know that but some players like DD are better shooters of midrange and long two. If he can stretch the defense just a bit he would be unstoppable and would make us that much better.

Hope Casey sends Ross a message by benching him and starting JJ

I've noticed since this team cooled off (when Demar went down), when they try to come back, right when they're about to catch up too many times they attempt a homerun play (whether that be a risky pass or bombing a bad 3point attempt) instead of just playing the way that got them within range in the first place.

I went into Tim Horton's once because a friend I was visiting said they made a good cup.

Id hate to taste a bad cup of coffee if thats considered good.

JJ needs to play 40 minutes and Lowry needs to stop sucking.

Patterson was on fire for a bit and now is bricking everything. Vasquez has been **** for a majority of the season. When Lou is cold, he's bad. And so far he's cold. Then there's lowry who's shooting went cold, Ross who's shooting went cold. Basically everyone is cold together.
According to jack it's just Ross fault though

Ross doesn't attack the rim like he should


Lol. Demar doesn't shoot the 3 like he should. Neither does James johnson. Val doesn't dunk the ball like he should. Kyle Lowry doesn't shoot efficiently like he should.
