This game shows just how OVERRATED Lee is

He is playing against one of the best big men in the league. I don't expect him to win those battles. But yeah is defense is horrible.

Ridiculous. Can't the D adjust to Brand so we make the others beat us. Oh wait, that's not D'Antoni's forte...

Its sad when the opposing team doesn't use your system but looks oh so much better playing it.

This game is going to be lost because they don't have any interior defense. Once word spreads around the league they will only beat teams that are too tired or a just out of it from long road trips.

Brand is giving him open looks and Lee is building a house o' bricks

I'll take the first overall pick in next year's draft then

Terrible way to close the half. I wanted this at 5 or under, -12 instead. Playing hard but defense, lack of height, low shooting % all problems. What else is new....

Tell you what, I know this is a big physical team but I'd get Gallo some minutes in the second half. Can only help. Where the hell was Chandler down the stretch in that 1st half anyway? He's gotta be in there. I might try this in the second half to really get some offense out there:

Craw at the 1
Q 2
Gallo 3
Chandler 4
Zach 5

Sprinkle in some Lee and Nate - those might be the best 7 players to attack this team in the 2nd half.

They'll be able to beat mediocre to terrible teams for the most part. I think at home they'll be undefeated against teams under .500 by the end of the year. 2 teams coming up next will probably have us at 3-1. Bucks are mediocre and Bobcats just suck and can't score.
Thank you, Rick Brunson.

I like Lee, but he's a glorified hustle player. His greatness in rebounding and field goal percentage is mitigated by the lack of a refined offensive game and a propensity to play absolutely no defense. He's got a lot of nerve asking for the money he's asking for.

Nate on the other hand... maybe we should've offered 20 over 4 like Maxiell got.
lol @ being BANNED by Martin since 11/07/10 (for asking if Mr. Earl had a point). Really, Martin? C'mon. This is the internet. I've seen much worse on this site. By Earl himself. Drop the hypocrisy.

who's minutes is Malik playing? he's filling in for Fishlips & Curry who both can't play & a rookie who isn't ready to play extended minutes yet... would u rather see Big Turd see minutes in the frontcourt?

Exactly. Even so, I want Gallo to get those minutes!!!!!!!!!!!! He's obviously not ready for those minutes yet, but when he is, he gets them if it were up to me.

Q Rich's entire game benefits from a quicker pace. Less thinking.........

i agree i'd much rather see the rook getting his minutes & being thrown into the fire... to be fair tho Malik's practiced w/this team all training camp & probably has a much better grasp of what MDA expects in that role... Gallo will get it soon & when he does i'm 100% positive he'll be getting minutes ahead of Malik.
After 7 years & 40K+ posts, banned by martin for calling Nalod a 'moron'. Awesome.
