    Boy I hope that works....sounds like Stotts trying to outsmart himself though.

    And that never works.

    Why in the world does Stotts refuse to play Aminu at the 3 and COllins or Vonleh at the 4...

    It baffles me

    This is a weird start.

    Holiday waltzing through the lane. Shabazz with his nightly 1 turnover on his first possession of the game, then missing a bunny the next possession, Boogie missing 4 shots inside the restricted area, but making a 3. Chief and CJ burying j's, but Dame missing both his.

    Chief with the best dribble I've ever seen him do. Then misses the layup.

    Nurk has been playing great lately. Looks like he's finally found his step with that new body of his.

    Would like to see better Defense in this game though, from the team.
