CALM DOWN BRIGGS!!! You are forgetting that the 15th is upon us and there's more than a good chance that something will get done to fix the holes we have on the roster. Donnie sees what this team is missing and I'm sure that he's working the phones to try and fix our issues.

Man AR not being that Camby type of bigman for this team this year has really hurt us in regards to the rotation. He's so talented, but he's got to get his head right. The good thing is that there's still a chance for him to get in the mix. I think one thing this game did was make Mike realize that he has to get some help off his bench. We need a big that is also a threat to score. AR and Timo are those kinds of players, but Timo is just not even close to being ready and AR hasn't shown he knows how to fit in, BUT HE HAS THE TALENT!

Both of these guys need to get ready soon! With them in the line-up and another PG type player, we're ready for the next 25 games.

Man I wish I could go down there and shake some sense into AR!!! Man get your head out of your butt and play some damn D and rebound. Start with that and then get into the flow with some easy offense. I wish we knew if he was getting better or not.

i think at some point u just gotta get the kid in there & see what he's got... we can't keep playing Amare all these minutes, he's gonna wear down... those knees aren't getting any better as time goes on... maybe just a bit of confidence shown in him by the coach will help AR to break out of his funk & start playing w/some fire.

Watching turriaf and Douglas out there is getting hard on the eyes as well. what a wasted performance

dont know what to say-- we need more punch and a big who can score off the bench

So why do you want to trade for a 6-9 guy that doesn't rebound particularly well?

We need size on our bench and we need a backup PG. That's been apparent for weeks. Our bench producse nothing and this is forcign our big guys to play extra minutes.

Maybe we'll see AR next game. I just wish that we at least heard something positive that he's actually making progress. It's the not knowing that kills me. I was so stoked about the prospect of seeing AR, Amar'e and Gallo. That is a nice frontline man! I have to believe that Mike wants to get this kid in the mix. How can you not want to see a kid with that much size and talent running the floor? Something has to be up.

YOur media is to busy talking about walsh's surgery to find out stuff like that.
