So how long before we actually start attacking the basket?

    We had only 7 FT's last game. Good god, that's terrible. I don't care who it's against, anything less than 10 Ft's is some weak shit.

    I mean, really, we have 4 wing players we know are capable of attacking the basket and drawing fouls in Devin, Vince, Boki*** and RJ. So then why the hell would we only get 7 Ft's? It doesn't matter whether we're fighting for the playoffs, rebuilding, or auditioning for the worst team in the NBA, shit like that shouldn't happen, and it annoys the hell outta me.

    Our gameplan for the next game should be to attack. 8 out of 10 possessions, we should be attacking the rim, and not sitting on the outside launching jumpers and effectively giving the game away. Vince and RJ should be getting 10 Ft's each, not 2. It shows a lack of effort and possibly not caring about winning. That's pathetic, and it's complete bullshit.

    Should I just accept that this is merely a jump-shooting team?

    my friend came over for the 2nd half.
    "I thought it's still be at least the 2nd quarter Sean"
    "damn...you're right..the first half did go by quick. Ah, you know why? No one ****ing did any free throws"

    Funny how Kobe gets 27 free throws against Dallas yet we only got 7 in total.

    Chris Paul shot 11 yesterday and Chandler shot 8.

    Sad.

    Jefferson really pisses me off when he pulls up for a jumper, which like 70% of the time doesnt work.

    Hopefully Lawrence Frank isn't telling them to jumpshoot all the time.

    Devin Harris and Marcus Williams need to call some plays, not just let guys like RJ and Vince chuck away the ball and make lazy passes resulting in turnovers.

    Devin and Marcus need to get their butts in the lane and break down defenses. Devin needs to start making passes to the man in rhythm with the hot hand, not just any old Joe Flo on the court.

    Josh Boone needs to finish strong, not blow every layup from his PGs. And if he does, stop passing to him.
