We could have score 90+ points if we hit our damn free throws. That game was painful to watch. I'll take the win, but this crap has got to stop. That's 2 games in a row, we've played down to the competition. Harden can't do it by himself. 9-1.
There never was a Bosh Spice. The last time he got called that..he hit the game winner in Game 3 of the NBA Finals in 2011 a day later. He is slumping. It happens. Long season. Our team as constituted does not have a Lebron James to mitigate injuries all over the place. We are an injured mess right now. At least Wade is coming back tonight (Likely).
Remember how many new players we have...it will take a little time. It would however be nice if we played some defense...eventually and it would also be nice if McBob wouldn't have a different body part falling off of his frame each day.
Wade working before the game...but he has been scratched by Spo in the last 5 minutes. McBob is ruled out with mild Leprosy. Deng I believe has a severed Spine and is a gametime decision, Haslem's Hamstring fell off and is also a GT Decision. Hey...our collection of PG's and Bosh again! What can possibly go wrong? Okay..if you don;t mind..I'm gonna go find a very high roof.
Another game I won't watch then. Would be tempted to watch it for Napier and Ennis, but not sure I can stomach another game of Cole and Chalmers making dumb play after dumb play after dumb play.
Ended up watching, and good I did. We got the good Chalmers tonight and Ennis and Napier did damage. Fun game.
That was a really nice win. When the rookies were doing the post gane interview Bosh walked up and screamed something like "I'm proud of you guys!"
If he just improves his passing/playmaking ability a little bit which can easily happen.. sky is the limit for him. Yeah he's short but so are a ton of elite point guards in the past and present.
Imo He just needs to understand how NBA defenses are going to play him. When his NBA IQ comes up a little he will be deadly.
Can we get healthy? Damn. Howard is a mess (injuries & child abuse case). T-Jones hasn't played in weeks. We have no big men. I think I just saw Harden playing power forward against Boozer. I wanted our young guys to get some playing time but this is ridiculous.
Dang. It'd feel real good taking down the Clips on national TV. Pretty tough w/o Wade, and then two other key guys nicked...ugh. Bosh will have to snap out of his funk for a W. Long season.
Yeah and then this article came out: http://finance.yahoo.com/news/lebron-james-basically-player-coach-173231009.html I don't know how true it all is, but it makes you respect how Spo and Riley were able to reign in Lebron's big ego as much as they possibly could.
That's a pretty fascinating read, thanks for posting the link. Not sure how that arrangement's going to go...
You know, I don't mind the low scoring output given the circumstances. But jeez this defense is just awful tonight. Can't have this laziness/missed rotations, etc. Gotta show up on the defensive end no matter who's injured. (Though seeing as I hardly ever watch the Clippers I do tend to forget how good Chris Paul is...damn.)
Been a lot more than they point out, too. Lots of little things where the coach says something and LeBron says something else. Maybe the best example is the preseason when LeBron said he wasn't going to play in the next game and Blatt had no idea when they asked him. ....And LeBron's boy Lue is the assistant head coach...so it's something to watch.
Just saw a picture on twitter of Derrick Rose in a suit on the sideline clapping on his teammates and the caption said "Rose needs 2 more claps to reach 32000 for his career."
He'd be just 4719 claps behind Adam Morrison for 5th All-Time and about 7535 to supplant Brian Scalabrine at No. 1. That is rarefied air. I think he's sitting pretty and is definitely poised to achieve greatness.
