    He gets rejected a lot because he's slow and robotic. Everyone knows what he's going to do a couple of beats before he does it, and then he's slow to gather himself. He's the opposite of Harkless, who seems to have an instinct of when to go up strong and he doesn't second guess it and telegraph his move as bad.

    5:30 start probably has something to do with it?

    I'd be interested how much of a focus defending w/o fouling is for Stotts'...not saying it's his fault, but it seems like it would be a pretty coachable skill.

    It feels to me like Crabbe gets a lot of silly fouls...

    I can't tell if that was really a pass by Aminu, but the end result was freakin sweet.

    Wes doesn't like someone giving him a taste of his own medicine. Turner is bullying him right back.

    The only thing thing that will give me hope for higher than 8th is if we win out till the all star break AND if we make a good trade.
