The only things the Clippers, Celtics, and Sixers are going to compete for is lottery balls. There is no excuse for getting blown out by 34 pts at home to the Celtics who are just plain bad. Minny was a tough game, a moral victory if you may. After that, we just took care of business against Philly and Clips. We should be 3-1, and now that we got 4 games that we should really loose going into them, that Boston game will come back to haunt us. Hopefully we'll be able to pull a game or two out ont he roadtrip, and stay .500 till we get back home.
As far as generally playin well, witht th exception of the Boston game, we have shown that we can score a lot of pts, run, force to's, and have a very good bench.
As for the negatives, we have shown, we can't hold team's to bad shooting, we have a huge gap at center, where one of our supposed centers has played himself out of rotation in 2 games, and the other one only starts cause he is the last man standing.
We are playing young guys, and thats very important. Wilkens gets mad props from for that.
TT and Mohammed need to traded to bring in a servicable center and an ok SF who can just split time with Ariza. Hmm, wait a minute, Van Horn and Doleac were just that. Oh well, sorry had to mention that lol.
A glimmer of hope maybe?!?
