    Dont go defending leonard for lackluster defense at the rim. He deserved what he got cause he has no rim protection. If simmons beat someone off the dribble and is driving to the hoop, leonard should have a: taken a charge, b: fouled for no basket ( which he did foul him, but not correctly), or c: blocked the dunk. He did none of those, hence he deserved to be posterized.

    It's unfortunate because he is a smart guy. Will probably be a good coach one day.

    But that was his job during the 'Knee'd to Noah play'; Look around confused to distract the opposing team. They weren't confused but he did his assignment well.

    Yep; it's great having such a nerdy team because all the guys seem like they'll have a post-game career on staff or in the front office. I hope we get to enjoy one of these guys with the team for decades.

    Oops, just saw the replay. It was Patty Baseball that Simmons beat up top.

    No Jake hate on that one.

    I'll take a bunch of nerds like we have over a bunch of coke sniffing, ego maniacs ala classic ABA Teams, Dallas Cowboys, 86 Mets, whomever. They fit this small town atmosphere and they don't attract attention.

    Pop laughing at the end of the game was pretty fucking awesome. This whole game was pretty much an exhibition game for these guys.
