That wasn't a play run for Sheldon was it?

If big baby misses one more layup. . . . . .

Baby missing that layup wasn't what angered me most about that play.  Rasheed went to post up and Davis decided to post up 2 feet away too.  Davis doesn't have a back to the basket post game...

Above all I blame Doc.  Didn't he say to Mike Gorman a week or two ago that in the playoffs you won't see all 5 bench players in at once?  Why has he always put them in now?  You'd think the team would benefit from playing with the players they will play with in the playoffs.  Doc is awful... reluctant to play Tony when he's been clearly playing better than Marquis..

Gorman asked him an innocuous question about rotations during the pre-game show and Glenn got totally defensive. Said "I don't care about rotations" "rotations aren't important" "rotations don't mean nothing because somebody gets in foul trouble"

Gorman tried to bail him out by saying "you mean in the playoffs you know what your rotations are going to be but you can't tell us?" but it was clear Glenn was in over his head like a caterpillar in the deep end of the kiddie pool

LETS GO
Grab a few boards, keep the TO's under 14, close out on shooters and we'll win.

IMO, Quis has been a bigger disappoitment than Sheed.

At least Daniels' play is excusable: he's come back from the surgery with no rhythm. And he was pretty much labeled as an injury waiting to happen when he came here so it didn't surprise many. Sheed simply doesn't do the things a basketball player is supposed to do.

My expectations, re: Rasheed, were low...so, I'm not disappointed with his contribution...on the other hand, I expected a lot more from Quis....I thought we had a true backup for PP.

Wow refs love the team with momentum. That was pretty much a clean strip by Scola...ball don't lie.

Nice defense by Shelden Williams against Scola in the low post.

Great D on scola there Shelden!!!

OOH, TA got away with steps there. Not unlike a Rockets guy did a few plays prior that got our coaching staff up in arms.

I agree. We're getting EXACTLY what I expected from Sheed - lots of 3 pt attempts, techs, and sporadic play.

But Quis was supposed to be the unsung signing of the offseason, a defensive-stopper/slasher who could really spell Pierce.

Put Sheldon and a target on Sideshow Bob on Sunday.  We gotta stop that young man. No more letting him get his "hustle" game going.
