Yeah, poor Bayless. He's getting lit up on D because we can't afford to put in him at point. I say we try it anyways, maybe with Rudy helping him bring the ball up or something. Weird saying this but I think we're missing the offense that Oden brought to the table since he's out with 2 fouls. But we're only down 5. Not the worst thing in the world.
Since we mentioned Outlaw earlier, that's the "boneheaded" side that some people are ignoring these days. I love him when he's on, but stuff like that is just stupid.
I guess lightning never does strike the same place twice. It was too much to ask the Thunder to win 2 straight.
Would you keep Greg in with the fouls, let him try to get a rhythm? Or do you take him out and hope he can stop fouling next half? I feel like playing 1-2 minutes at a time prevents him from getting anything going, but at the same time, if he can put it together in the second half....tough call, especially with Pryzbilla.
James Posey should not be able to score in the post against Aldridge. LaMarcus has to improve his defense if he really wants to remove that "soft" label.
Should keep Oden in one time so he can learn how to not pick up fouls. Christ it's annoying at times. Bayless might be the Blazers best option at creating offense right now. Let him penetrate and finish or kick out.
Better to take him out and start fresh with three more to burn in the second half. If he gets a 4th he's out until the last quarter.
