    To their credit, maybe they'd be great (or at least good) if they had a coach like Nate, Monty and Dean Demopolous, who have shown they're actually capable of developing talent? Something to think about.

    I got a laugh from Blog-A-Bull.

    What WAS the coach thinking to start Gray and Hughes??

    I was thinking the exact same thing when we played Minny. I still say Foye has a chance to turn things around. He hasn't exactly had consistent coaching and we seem to develop talent better than any other team in the league.

    I thought the second linked article was right on - the bulls did not play as a team.
    They had a LOT of 1-on-1 play.

    I thought the morning crew on the game had the right analysis:

    it was the Harlem Globetrotters v. the Washington Generals last night. :D

    That's weird you bring up the Harlem Globetrotters. I just watched with my son the other day Scooby-Doo meets The Harlem Globetrotters!

    Thanks, maxiep. I love these kinds of threads. It's always nice to see what other fans are saying about the Blazers.
