    I have noticed defenders like to give him a little shove when he is getting passed the ball. It makes him lose the ball alot.

    Why is billups continuing to go with a starting lineup that hasn't won a game? Where are the adjustments?!?

    Not a fan of ignoring the game and talking to guests during tv broadcast

    I think it's distraction by design

    Chauncey is not a coach that appears to value change/growth.

    It is really hard to watch these. I want to support the team.
    I shudder when considering 20 straight losses is looking like a real possibility. REALLY hard games approaching. What would it take for CB to get fired?

    You're probably correct. There is nothing on the floor pleasant to talk about

    There’s nothing Billups can do to make up for the talent discrepancy.

    I think Billups would get fired if he was losing with a team that should win. I also think he would get fired if players started looking checked out and/or started speaking out against him.

    None of that shit is going to happen this season.

    teams are just loading up all their defenses and packing their paint on shaedon. until he loosens it up by knocking some shots down, this will not be pretty.

    the "3 isn't falling tonight".

    Don't think it's fallen any night.

    I'm so old school that whenever I see Murray playing, I think it's Steve Smith. And honestly, Murray is playing a bit like Steve Smith (would if he was still playing in the NBA).
