    It feels like a road game. But on the plus side Bayless showed that it is in fact possible to stop dribble penetration by guards (two ticky tack fouls not withstanding).

    Zach looks inspired, not that surprising.

    Kaman's banged up, but geez. I don't get it.


    They're 2-7 with Zach? They look like a .500 team tonight.

    Or, or we just

    Bayless was the first guard off the bench. He came in late in the 1st to cheers from the crowd.

    It's a new squad, it came take time for them to learn to play togther. Also I believe the announcers said that they are coming off of a long break. They've had a lot of rest and a chance for them to learn to play together, so they're having a good game tonight.

    thorton, zbo and baron are all flash no substance players. they get thier #'s but play little if no d and don't have a team concept. pretty easy to see why they suck this year.

    I'm sick and tired of these silly turnovers, travels off the dribble and 3 in the key. I've noticed that they refs are calling a lot of travels off of perimeter drives this year.

    Man we need a decent scoring night from Oden, if for no other reason than it opens up everybody else's game.

    so bayless stopped penetration one time (granted more than we are use to) but what has been so great about him? i stand by my comparison that he's the backup QB of this team.

    Yeah, but 4-17? That's like Oklahoma City or Minnesota territory.

    They can't be THAT bad.
