Dont know what to tell you - we won't get far with this level of guard play.

Lowry
Rich
Herro


This isn't a contenders guard rotation. none of them can get to the line, none of them are great defenders.

8-34 FG combined last game.

This is not it, you either make a trade an add a real scoring guard, or you start playing big with wings playing as our PG, or....you do nothing and just give up on the season.

Goodness. Every time we lose it gets dark around here. We are still without big minute boys-Butler, Martin and HS. We have been the most injured team in the entire league, yet we somehow manage to be 5th in the East. Look around the league, who are you really worried about when we are at full strength? If we dont have enough, neither does anyone else.

I was in Brazil for three weeks. So much fun. Not too worried about regular season wins. It would be nice to get HFA for one round at least though.

Well, need Herro to find his game and Jaquez to keep it rolling.

Hope Jovic can have a nice game. See what happens.
