    It was just too deep of a hole to dig out of.

    Pope with the uber lucky 3, that play was a momentum changer. It feels like we never get the loose balls.

    Give the ball to DMo inside, and defend.

    Nice comeback but it's difficult to play with no effort for more than 3 qtrs. and come back and win. Just shows what happens when there is effort though.

    knote I respect your opinion, and I guess with more WIDE open looks like the ones he was getting, he should start making them, but I guess McHale's decision was more about defense, likely. Canaan picked up two quick fouls, and Papa was getting the team a lot of what McHale had wanted to get from Canaan.

    Bev should take this game personally. He's getting torched so bad by Augustin that they have to bench him - Bev being a guy who's supposed to be all about defense.

    No but the similarities are there. Canaan has barely proved anything but people want to hail him as the savior to our secondary play maker problems. He is probably the best unknown option we have but I don't think he is an answer.

    brewer keeps missing.. :(

    His 0-5 from 3, 2 quick fouls and couldn't stay infront of DJ for more than 0.2 seconds had nothing to do with our comeback.

    Canaan wasn't going to keep missing shots. Offense moves better with him out there. Augustine is doing whatever he wants anyways. Ariza has almost torn his ligaments twice trying to recover from an Augustine cross over.

    This is like the dmo thing a couple years ago imo. Guys have talent, but just because he's not a star on the team doesn't mean he should be yanked after making some mistakes. Dwight makes all kinds of mistakes. Josh smith, Beverly sucks a lot..
    We were on a run. Just let it ride. Eventually he's have hit a shot.

    But like I said. We can still win.
