Sorry I'm late. Let's discuss. Let me just say that the passing is looking a lot better tonight, looks like we are seeing the development of chemistry. I am pissed at the refs for calling that foul on Ariza after Gerald Wallace undercut him. Crawford has done very well, the team is looking more comfortable. I know we're playing against Charlotte, but things are actually looking better. Tim Thomas has got to learn to back off of Gerald Wallace and give him some space, Wallace can't nail them from outside - Tim has to get to work...as usual.
Sorry for no preview everyone, I was really busy and by the time I got home, the game already started and everything. My bad everyone But, big ups for TIM THOMAS! Funny stuff but hey we got the win! TT is starting to get better. Is this the begining of a new TT or was it just lucky? I'll elaborate more I'm just happy that we got a win!
It's over!!! TT finally hits a clutch shot to win the game. I'm still angry that we let them back in the game though. Crawford should come off the bench more often. Sweetney, the future anchor of this team, played well. He had a big impact off the bench and is learning how to pass out of double teams. I'm happy with this win but this isnt exactly a good team and it was too close for comfort. We cant be too happy with this win. We have to put up a LONG winning streak to get out of the depths of the Eastern Conference. Hopefully we'll be able to beat divisional rivals, the 76's, tomorrow.
Tim Thomas was absolutely dreadful all night, mrj18. I am amazed that you actually came out and said something so....wrong. He was extremely lucky with that shot. Glad it went in though . Great game for Crawford even though he blew his assignments on Robinson. Sweetney was great, Crawford reeled in some key boards down the stretch. Ariza was magnificent, as was Penny. Marbury was horrible on Jason Hart though, I tell you. He is a horrible defender and I am getting disgusted with his lack of heart - he kept on giving up on his open shots dishing it off to Crawford who was in a worse position. A lucky win that will stay in our minds forever. Thank God Okafor was hurt for the Knicks' sake.
Yeah let's not get ahead of ourselves. We won against a very average Charlotte team with an injured Okafor. Our next game WILL be harder. Still I'm happy we won but it's gonna be annoying if we have a mediocre season because will mean we don't get to go to the playoffs yet don't get a decent draft pick.
Tribute, KUK, KA I didn't really get to catch it. I tuned in with a little remaing it was that bad? I just found out Okafor wasn't playing. And we did let a lead slip. I know but since when do wins come like this? The basketball gods have punished us enough, let's not jinx it. Btw, TT had a pretty bad game. I guess it was overshadowed by the game winner.
All I have to say is next year I see Sweetney coming out of his shell and taking the NBA by storm. I love this kid.
