    Great game. A little worried about Thabeet. One block, but also one foul in only two minutes.

    My obsession with TWill had come to and end a fe weeks ago. The thing I disliked most was his attitude on the court. He is paid a lot of money to play the game, so I don't know why he always shows that kind of don't care attitude. Maybe he really wants out of Houston.

    If so that's ridiculous, he could end up being another one of those guys who end up out of the league a couple of years in because of their attitude. Luckily, we didn't give up a lot for him.

    BTW, who's been playing the three when T-Will or Bud isn't in?

    Didn't give up a lot? Next years first even if its lottery protected is pretty steep for a guy that has shown nothing.

    He needs to be humbled. He may end up crying about his like to John Thompson in a live interview like Isaiah Rider was about 4 years ago.

    This is it, Rick has his 9 man rotation set and every one knows there role.

    We are gelling at the right time.

    The Spurs don't want any of this.;)

    Sickest play of the night -- 2nd half, Courtney Lee not only surging back on D to help Brad in what was going to be a 2-on-1 situation, but blocking the shot after Brad was beaten baseline.

    Lee's a warrior, and the most capable backup 2-guard in the league, IMO.

    T-Will, on the other hand, is self-absorbed and immature, and deserves to rot on the end of the bench for the remainder of the season. If we're complaining about his clown's antics from afar, imagine how Rick, the staff, and his fellow players feel about him. I don't blame Adelman for benching this self-entitled baby, and if I were running the show, I'd tell him to take his tears back to the D-League. Von Wafer was ripped to shreds for his disruptive behavior, but he was an integral piece in the '08 playoff push... T-Will's whining and bickering incessantly, plays like he doesn't give a damn, and fans, including the Rowdies, are chanting for this POS to see the floor.

    Martin and Lee are cross guarding on weaker match-ups when Chase leaves the game.

    Rick choosing to only play 3 players at the 2\3 spot is allowing Chase, Martin and Courtney to all get 30 minutes a game and 10 plus shot or more a game.
    Which is great because all 3 can hit open shots and move well with out the ball.

    Big ups to Jordan Hill for grinding late in the 4th quarter -- 4 points on 2 impressive jump hooks, 5 rebounds, and 2 blocks.

    Much respect, your time will come.

    We needed to win and it was refreshing to see us blow them out from the get go. Im glad that were playing meaningful games to end the season.

    yea he gets in when the game is over and the other team isn't even trying anymore so why go diving around for balls. It's ridiculous when a lot of people here are bashing him from the short time they see him play when he already showed what he can do in NJ.. But half the people bashing him didn't see him play

    That's how you earn more minutes and respect from the coaching staff. Just because it's garbage time doesn't mean you have to play like garbage.

    To prove to the head coach that you're hungry, willing to consistently compete at a high level regardless of the circumstances, and capable of contributing on a playoff caliber squad.

    Why should Adelman trust Williams when he displays a lackadaisical attitude during his limited minutes on the floor? He doesn't play with a sense of urgency, and if he's unable to positively impact the game against the Pacers' bench, what makes you think he'd be able to do it against the Spurs or Mavs down the stretch?

    He's a 2nd-year player and needs to prove his worth, as nothing's going to be handed to him in this business, contrary to what he may think. He still has the opportunity to make noise on this team, but he needs to adjust his attitude and harness his talents.
