I thought Scal had MJ's braintype?

I'd like to see Pruitt tie it up here, so we get to see more action.

LOL @ Tommy about Scal taking the last shots.

ps - Players designing plays is not a good idea.

well, i think it's safe to say we aren't pinning the loss on scal tonight...he pinned it on himself by turning the ball over 80 times in the span of 5 seconds. HOW hard is it to hang onto the ball and not throw it to the other team???

thank God he won't be playing during the regular season...CUT SCAB.

Bill Walker put on a show there a little bit, I'm excited by what I saw tonight.  This kid has potential to be a starter for this team in a couple years.

Scalabrine is a different story.  Is there a reason why he is not a JV coach somewhere yet?

This game was a bit sloppy (I only watched half the 3rd, and all of the 4th).

I didn't see Giddens (just a little of Miles and POB); however, I'm impressed by Walker and TA. They named POB the player of the game though. :D

Scal seems like the one that should be cut, but he's also the least likely to be cut imo.

ok scal, ive always defended you, but god, you were awful tonight.

so far, if i had to cut someone, its you buddy. not going to base an eval on one game, but scal was worthless tonight, outside of one nice pass.

I agree, but  because of his contract he isn't going anywhere...

I don't really blame Scal. The problem was turnovers through out the game. The full court pressure was a back breaker when Rondo wasn't out there. Too many turnovers to succeed. House isn't a point guard and it showed. Scal was just the tip of the iceberg.

no, scal was the entire iceberg on an individual level. he missed 5 open shots with 3 air balls, turned the ball over multiple times, got beat 3 times on defense by my count, and in general contributed nothing.

im sorry, he was worthless. i know he's fun to have around as a mascot, but he is utterly without merit.

O'Bryant- I've been rocking the avatar since we got him. Knew he is going to be more versatile than Perk.

Walker is athletic, which we all knew.

Scal needs to be packaged with either Powe or Davis. Absolutely worthless out there.

guys who had their moments where they impressed me-

tony allen
bill 'sky' walker
darius miles
patrick o'bryant
and it was nice to see gabe pruitt out there for a while

leon's back, rondo's still obviously improving and looked extremely confident, ray allen looked sharp, like, seattle-before-ankle-surgery sharp. KG, PP, and house all looked ready to go.

guys i hate-

scal...

and that's it heh...

now hold on, i liked POB tonight, but lets not go overboard. he looked great on offense at times, but utterly lost on defenisve assignments at times as well.

this is what i took out of the game: i'm a little worried about our bench (it seems like without the starters, we had no offense, as seen by the last 1:18 of the game) but i'm extremely excited about walker.
