Tolliver wasn't getting off of Nic fast enough for Miller's taste so he let him know. Perfect move IMO.
Big minutes from our starters; considering the lead we had most of the game, you'd think N8 would have given them a bit more of a rest.
Well if the game hadn't gotten down to single digits in the fourth then I'm sure he would have played the subs more.
I'm not talking about throwing guys on at the end in a blowout, but resting starters earlier in the game when we do have a big lead.
Miller the ballhog called his own number 9 fucking times in 37 minutes. Yet again, he totally killed the flow of the offense. Good thing we have Patty Mills, everyone's darling, to show old man Miller how it's done. Patty also called his own number 9 times, in 16 minutes, but he's a much better shooter than Miller. So, that's OK. BNM
Andre was already sick of getting beat on without hearing a whistle long before that incident. Did you see Brewer whacking Wesley in the head with his elbows? Andre had enough and probably felt he got stomped on when he was on the floor. This is the third time I've seen Andre assert himself like that in a game when the refs wouldn't clean it up. Good for him.
Look I know where you're going with this. Mills got plenty of opportunities to chuck shots in 16 minutes.
I don't know if you guys caught it, but Marty laid an elbow right in Dre's back (pushing him to the ground) in the next play when Webster scored.
Love had better numbers than LA, but our guy looked like the better player. LA was pretty evidently our go to guy and drew double teams, which opened it up for his teammates, but we saw none of that from Love.
I do find it ironically humorous that our, old, slow, unathletic PG, who is also the quietest, most introverted guy on the team (perhaps the entire NBA) has become our enforcer. Whatever. I'm just glad to see we have someone with enough balls to push back when the other team's bigs are throwing our guys around. I still LOL every time I think of Miller hip checking Blake Griffin into the stanchion under the basket. Welcome to the NBA rookie! BNM
Well ... I don't disagree, but then again we have two bigs who can single cover opposing front-court players so the need to double isn't as pressing. That said, I thought Love looked pretty fucking good; he's got a a real shortage of talent surrounding him and defensively, that team is a mess.
Part of me hopes the team doesn't trade Miller and Camby, because without them they become a group of softies who back down at the first sign of intimidation.
