Thespianoid, reason for Jv benching? This is a bad game for him imo.

Easy to see that Atlanta is head shoulders above us, they play team ball. We're in ISO mode 75% of the time.

You mean to tell me Lou bricked his last second shot? That's unexpected.

Vasquez needs double screens to get open in the half court, what's new.

This is what happens when you have a defensive coach that doesn't care what you do on offense as long as you play defense.

Vasquez would be the first guy I'd trade man, if we could find a PG that can get guys good looks and is a good defender, I'd take him over Vasquez any day. Yeah, V provides that "offensive spark" once every 15 games but that's not what your back PG is supposed to do, especially when you have Lou/PP coming off the bench as well as other guys on our team.

Posters asking last year why some people wanted Schroeder on this team. This is why.
Also trashquez gtfo. Also lol at Lou Williams final play. How long before we actually run a play.

From what I saw, his P&R defense was crap. Almost always out of position.

Plus he bit on an Antic pump fake.. :banghead:

The defense was solid but Lowry doesnt look the same..GV is struggling after the team had the "talk" with him.
