And you know that McMillan isn't smart enough to realize that and adjust accordingly. We clearly should be injuring opposing point guards in each game. But we almost never do.
Totally agree. And, since Oden is picking up random fouls anyways, might as well have some of them be extra "damaging".
I just want to add: Dejuan Blair looks like a Zach post-microfracture surgery, but with no jumpshot... ugh. No leap whatsoever, just big and kinda slow out there. I'm sure he performs better in other situations, but he was mediocre tonight.
It's on Miller for not getting them a decent shot before that. He's getting the ball to them late, when they're covered, so they give it back.
Yeah, having that situation happen more than once is painful. They worked it out though, and had Blake play PG on the halfcourt sets after that.
Hopefully this starts the team on a roll. Totally correct game ball to Nate and I would add Oden. Big helping of crow for me and many others. Love the idea of Blakey as a security blanket can't wait until he's replaced by Martell.
On both possessions that I'm thinking of Miller didn't touch the ball until late in the clock or got the ball off of a botched play. Nice try anyway.
When San Antionio was making their run at the end, Miller was dribbling a little too long. A few possessions he took jumpers that were *shiver*.
I just hope it's not Miller that pops or we stay with just the pimple for our cap space. That would not be good.
McMillan says he really likes the 3-guard lineup, and will try it again. Sorry, B-Roy! He also like Bayless as the Microwave. He's hinting at more minutes for Bayless, too.
Definitely. Bayless with 12 minutes a night where he's the centerpiece on offense could really be exactly what the 2nd unit needs.
No doubts. Love Rudy - but there is one thing he just can not do like Bayless - and that's taking it hard to the rim.
Soooo.... what you're saying is the Spurs, who most pundits predict to finish 2nd in the west, don't count?
Miller was passed the ball late in the shot-clock and was forced to shoot long jumpers... both of the shots I remember weren't exactly his fault. But why don't you go ahead and continue to think that way, it looks like you're having so much fun. I'll just take my facts and go home.
I think we match up terrifically with San Antonio. Not so much with other teams who play at a faster pace.
