    You're fueling Simons and putting a chip on his shoulder! I missed the earlier part of the game so he looked great aside from that turnover which was the other play I saw LOL.

    He’s drawing doubles and it’s making things easier on everybody else.

    Even when he misses the shot looks good. I want him shooting for sure.

    I agree there is not much movement at all. I think Billups spent most of training camp on defense and it appears that teams don't really practice anymore during the season, so not sure how he will improve the offense.

    I guess Chauncey has decided to play Little with the starters.
    Is Norm hurt?

    CJ is who he is. He just can’t help himself.

    Looked miserable because dame and CJ decided to go one on five every possession. Cant believe how poorly we're using nance

    That’s why I was asking. I wonder if he’s out again?

    Since the 8:43 mark in this quarter CJ or Dame has shot except on shot by Nance and out that time they had mad one shot between them I getting dislike either player selfish play has to stop between these 2.

    I noticed 2 times in the first half where CJ ignored the wide open 3 point shooter to instead dance around with the ball and loft up a bad shot. :hairout:

    so far chauncey billups has been all talk, no action (except for defense sometimes)

    either he gave up on his ideas or players simply dont want do it, so he caved to them

    after all he cant afford to piss off the players, he could easily lose his job

    I want CJ to pass more and for Dame to pass up shots less.
