    Honestly while I don't think that's beyond Stotts.
    I just don't see it happening.


    All I want is the ball put in Nurk's hands and run a modified version of the Princeton offense.
    If this game is close I'll live and die with Westbrick trying to play the hero.
    Just hope he doesn't get smart and pass to PG13.

    It's got to be Hood.

    Go to the rim, play 5 on 4. At this point I'd just make Kanter jump on the pick and roll. At least there's a chance of screwing up their offense.

    CJ is back at PG, watch OKC make their run now.

    Hes played good defense tonight. The past four points by Noel was because he had to rotate to cover for the Blazers giving up a ton of dribble drives on the perimeter and the weak side not rotating to take away the dump off. Just because it's his guy doesnt mean it's his fault.

    Stotts has turned Hood into a glorified spot up shooter. That is not, and has never been Hood's game.

    I just want them to force some turnovers and get in transition, and to quit playing against a set defense.

    I actually grumbled at my monitor when Curry cheated on the screen and gave up the easy drive that a 5 year old could see.

    He's done the same to Jake. That's all he's got this game.
