I like PJ. He went to my rival high school. Enloe in Raleigh NC. I won't talk sh*t about him. Go Suns!!

Are we trying to lose games now? :banghead: Man that was some dumb crap in the fourth and overtime. Jeff lost this game, with poor substitutions.

Bledsoe -19 for the game.
Knight -16 for the game.

Reggie Jackson made both of them his bitches in the second half.

Pistons went on an 18-0 run when we should have had the game sealed. That is depressing.

Last 2 nights were the first 2 full games I've been able to watch in about a week. I remember why I wasn't missing anything lol

We seem to bench players who are playing well. Then throw them in at weird moments in the game. For those of you who have played you understand that it takes a min or 2 to become acclimated on the court.

We really struggled without a true PG in the last 10 minutes.

Terrible shots by Knight and Bledsoe late.

McDonough and Jeff's system cost us there.

When Drummond didnt miss those 2 FT's, I already knew something bad would happen.
We failed badly to execute in clutch but for the god's sake... Tucker made a heads up plays and put the worst FT shooter in the league at the line and he made both. This is some karmic bad luck.

It's inexplicable. Even without Booker out there (which I think he should have been)...it's still inexplicable.

Oubre is better than Markieff...and better looking. They won't get of his baby face.

It's a mentality. When you stand for nothing, you decide when you feel like it.

I don't know how long Booker and Warren were in there and I know Warren went hard to the floor before he went out, but even if they needed a breather, they should have been out there. Even if Hornacek wanted PJ to hound Drummond and box him out, go super small with TJ at the 4, and Booker at the 3. But Leuer and Telly had been playing fairly well too.

Even if you feel you can only afford to play one of the two due to lineup limitations and wanting both starting guards out there, at least play one of the two, and have them rotate.
