    Is that right though? The boxscore seems to have lost Turner, I thought he had about 11. I didn't hallucinate, did I? He was playing, right.

    I just think this team desperately needs some discipline. Some structure. It has been this way pretty much since LMA left. We at least had an offense that we ran with Aldridge. Since LMA left, Dame and CJ have been given the green light, and there's zero accountability.

    You're right. If I add up all the points in the box score it's only 96.

    I'm looking right at the NBA box score....Turner has been there all night. Thought you were a writer....you can express without F-bombs, right? Besides, you're an educated enough fan to realize Turner is missing even if you don't see him. You have to watch for fake news....or have better internet. :cheers:

    This isn't just 1 game sample size saying this. I am glad we kept Nurk and Moe.

    I'm not at home right now, so I was checking the box score. Going to watch the game when I get back. But I have never seen a player completely removed from a box score like that. Is the box score lying about Dame and CJ's horrendous shooting night as well?

    Sadly, it is not. They were laying bricks left and right and not giving the ball to Nurk who was on fire.

    Dame gets him the ball plenty. Nurk missed a couple more off his passes. That being said, Nurk was fantastic tonight.

    Looks like Nurk had 5 fouls (and 7 turnovers). I guess I could see how they might be more careful with him.

    Nope. Who are you again?

    so how come you weren't crowing about Kemba being better when CJ had 50 points the other day?

    Charlotte adjusted to the pick and roll just like most other teams. That play wasn’t there. It’s why we still need shooters.
