This is getting to be it for me. Team better come out with this mess fixed tonight. Win this one and get it together and hopefully get back to .500 through this next stretch of games or start taking the draft seriously where there are some nice prospects.

Next 5-

Heat
Pacers
Hornets
Blazers
Kings

Get things right and win tonight and would she be able to get back to .500 through this stretch or we drop like a rock :lol:

What should Morris do to lose his starting spot and his minutes?

morris needs to get traded

Morris has been absolutely Josh Smith cold in December. It's likely time that SVG changes him for Tobias.

I'm sure that starting both Tobias/Leuer was supposed to be the original lineup. But Tobias has been playing too well for him to come off the bench.

My guess is Tobias replaces Mook in the strating lineup. Maybe a role change will kick start Mook's game a bit.

actually TH has been playing so well because he's been coming off the bench. The problem with our starting lineup is we have to many players that "should get touches" and by moving TH to the bench he's our primary option and has responded.

If RJ goes to the bench, i think Tobias should start as imo Tobais is going to have the same problem with RJ being so damn ball dominant

I'd like to see Ish and Tobias in starting lineup but it will be only Tobi for Mook, obviously. And Indy snatched a W against Bulls. This seasons east is crazy, every team has like .500 record. Winning there won't be easy but like a month ago we destroyed 'em by 40 points. Go Pistons! DETROOIT BASKETBAALL! Our schedule ain't easy. Next 3 weeks can be crucial. If we will go for another ebrasements, we'll need to think about fighting for the good pick in the 2017 draft, really.

That's probably true. The less Tobias plays with someone like RJ, the better is for him. In fact, I feel like the less we go to RJ in general, the team seems to have more life in being involved.

That's probably why Mook has also been awful since RJ came back too.

Looks like Mook is out for the game. Not sure why.

The only words that describe Reggie are "old and washed up" except they don't make sense for him so you know he is "effed up" either mentally or physically.

Leuer is our best player

MotownMadness · Post #15 » by **MotownMadness** » Sat Dec 31, 2016 1:23 am

We just can't shoot

Blkbrd671 · Post #16 » by **Blkbrd671** » Sat Dec 31, 2016 1:23 am

RJ 1-8

rest of team 5-10

SVG this f* equation isn't hard. RJ's chucking and bone headed wasted possessions don't allow us to build any momentum. RJ is not our best player

MotownMadness · Post #17 » by **MotownMadness** » Sat Dec 31, 2016 1:25 am

Calm down Dre

Blkbrd671 · Post #18 » by **Blkbrd671** » Sat Dec 31, 2016 1:26 am

Ish comes in, we automatically try to get out and run . RJ doesn't even try

russkopp · Post #19 » by **russkopp** » Sat Dec 31, 2016 1:26 am

Dre is so weak around the basket it makes me puke.

The Moose · Post #20 » by **The Moose** » Sat Dec 31, 2016 1:27 am

Real barnburner of a game so far. 13-13 with 2 mins to go and we are shooting 28%, wonderful.
