It's one game and you can't judge him by one game. I have seen Sasha for years and he simply isn't that good folks anytime your starting SF scores zero it's going to be a long night. I agree we'd be better with Pietrus there.
NYC had to be hyped to win this game and we didn't have Pierce yet we still almost beat them. I don't think they are that good, this was a revenge game for them. They had a lot of home town calls too.
