We're somehow "only" down 8 with Walker, Batum, Zeller, just bout everyone sucking

Wow, we traded Vonleh for an average SF who is going to bolt after one season unless we offer him a max contract. Then we passed on Winslow to draft Vonlehs replacement as one of our last bigs off the bench. House is getting cleaned in our management before too long.

I don't get the whole "pass the ball to Al, but clog the middle leaving no one beyond the arc" play.

Batum is more timid than Marvin. Didn't think it possible.

Well, not after less than 3 quarters of play to go on.

I just need someone to answer me why the hell do we have Marvin on the other side of the paint on Al's post-ups. It keeps me awake at nights.

There you go Walker. See what happens when you drive the lane and don't settle for your sorry jumper?

I told you guys Clifford hasnt learned anything. Its going to be Alfense and letting one of our point guards dribble around forever while everyone stands around every second that Al is on the quart.
