    What's done is already done, let's just hope morey keeps them both and sees how it plays out this season, don't want to see ASIK leave this year, just one season last wasn't enough for me last year & he's the type of guy that would stay after his contract was up maybe for a couple more mill.

    You serious? Brooks had plenty of 30+ pt nights. AB is instant offense. However, you live by the 3 you die by the 3. Some nights he'll be a hero, other nights he'll build a brick wall.

    AB makes a great back up PG. When he's hot, keep him in. When he's not, take him out.

    I'm gonna get a lot of hate from both the LOFs and HOFs about this, but it seems like that game flowed a lot smoother with both of them out.

    They're both high risk players and it seems like we get a lot of back and forth on the score board with them in.

    Lin is not a real SG but guarding a much taller player so yes Brooks would of given up more especially without Asik in

    The game flows when both Harden and Howard are out period. They are both max players and sometimes need to do their dribble iso thing.

    Let's not get carried away. I thinks Brooks is a rocket hero, but Lin gets to rim better than anyone on the team not named Harden. We don't need him every game, but we need him none the less. He's can play the Sam Cassell role.

    If he did they probably wouldn't lose the game.

    I disagree. They both played well. Against bad teams when Howard comes out at the end of the third with a double digit lead, Asik comes in and continues to control the board and protect the rim then Howard doesn't need to come back in.

    Tonight was an example of both guy playing well.

    yeah. i was really just agreeing with him. My point is if Howard insists on posting up, a full-hearted Asik can easily outplay him.

    AB is a starting level PG on this team - good that Morey signed him he is really a valuable back up.

    Honestly, Lin and Brooks are better than Bev.....

    I would like to see Bev moved back to 3rd string and as a defensive specialist, AB and Lin are much better overall players.

    If the two teams play 10 games, would the first team win 7 or more?

    PB/JH/CP/TJ/DH

    or

    JL/AB/FG/OC/OA

    You forgot the part where Atlanta lost by 20 to Orlando. Hawks losing by 29 is nothing to be boasting about.

    If Garcia played half as well as he did tonight for our first 10 games we might have won a couple more games.
