    ...so half the Blazer team was wide open. They have to do a better job of taking advantage. Not Ant overdribbling MeJ style.....and then on the last possession, getting an offensive foul.

    It’s so bad how I feel about this team vs the start of the season. I think I would rather be in Orlando or Okcs position than us…

    So Chauncey just stopped the offense and told Watford to hold for the screen and then drive for all of us to see?
    Boggles the mind?

    okay man. He’s not 6’9 like Luka who can throw cross court passes over Torontos team of 7 foot wingspans.

    I really haven't been falling this team this year very much because it's same nonsense year and year out. Where we got to guards shooting majority of the shots even if there hot or cold and accountability by the head coach.

    He floats. It's unnatural.

    What’s the chance they blow these guys out in the fourth quarter and win this game?

    Saying this for years
    17 turnovers through 3Q, yeesh.

    I'm starting to become cemented in the belief that Ant can't play PG at all. He can't make decisions. He needs other people to create situations for him, and he's a great scorer under those parameters.

    BTW, you can't win with either Watford or Eubanks in your regular rotation, let alone both of them. I've seen enough of Eubanks over the last two games getting the ball 12 feet from the hoop with no one on him and having absolutely no idea what to do to have soured on his getting regular minutes. They're good guys to have on your roster and in practice, but not good guys to have to rely on to contribute night after night. Eubanks is only good in the restricted area.
