    With Kenny constantly getting bashed I feel he needs a positive thread, after tonight he deserves it. So like I said before I'll say it once more KT is great!!!! [​IMG]

    Heer, Heer. Agreed KT is coming into his own this season. Not just this game but the last few games. Thoes who have been bashing CD's last 2 drafts should go ahead and e-mail your apologys now. I hope this kid continues to develop and becomes FORCE.

    No this is not a typo. Kenny Thomas should start and Mo should be benched.

    He passed another test tonight: coming up big when it counts (clutch). That 3 and the FTs... No overtime without the 3.

    Should be starting. If Mo`s just good for 6 fouls then let him do it off the bench. KT has earned it.

    Gee- Mo was playing good and the officials point blank fouled him out- so many of those calls were blatantly ridiculous. You don't take Mo's job away because the officials kept him out of the game.

    I say keep Kenny coming off the bench and start Rogers. That dude knows how to be productive on the court. I just can't see our starting PF shooting .368 from the floor, and that's with tonight's 5 of 15 performance.

    We can just trade or hell, cut Mo, for all I care. I like our team's chemistry much better when he's not in the game.

    KT has really been working hard the last few games and has been showing consistent effort on the glass. However, he still is having problems finishing when he takes the ball to the glass. I dont know if its that he's too short or maybe it will come in time but 5-15 shooting is just not acceptable for a PF.

    Cat, buddy. We all know you love Big Mo alot but the guy is not all that. He is very inconsistent. His rebounding skills are awful, he has a nice shot but doesnt bring in on every night. I think Kenny has more game then he does.

    Oh and just to point out- if Mo played 40 minutes and got 6 rebounds you guys would absolutely be crucifying him as usual. But if KT does it makes him worthy of a starting job?

    Yes, he scored 18 points and some big buckets. But he went 5-15, a horrible percentage for a PF, and you have no clue what Mo could have done if he got that many minutes. Relax people.

    To the people in the chat-- see what I was telling you? If anything goes wrong, it's Mo's fault. We don't get on Cat, Steve, and Dream for missing crucial free throws, or for KT going 5-15 shooting. But if Mo makes the slightest mistake, everyone here crucifies him. It's really ridiculous.

    Kenny is making his statement, which is'nt very good for Mr. Mo(No)statement. I hope Taylor won't put the blame on the system or the Coach, or Francis, or whatever when "it didn't work out here."

    Cat,

    No one is crucifying Mo, Heck, I want him to succeed as much as the next guy, I am just not watching his game through rose colored glasses.

    You can not tell me you are happy with his production to date? He has simply not found his niche, and the talk about him working on his rebounding, has been all TALK.

    I am not happy with KT's shooting 5-15, but I will live with it, if he is hustling on defense, snagging boards, and creating for others, as KT is doing right now...MO is doing none of the above.

    DaDakota


    PS. Mo gets so many fouls because he is lazy at getting in proper position, he just does not hustle on defense.

    If Mankind evolved from Monkeys and Apes, then why are there still Monkeys and apes?

    Mo had 3 rebounds in 16 minutes. Kenny had 6 rebounds in 40 minutes. Do some math. Kenny isn't great there either, and he's nowhere close to as good as Mo is offensively. Give Mo a chance. He will be an excellent player, mark my words.

    Mo was actually playing well today and on his way to a very productive evening, but he got into continuous foul trouble. He plays fine when he's on the court, its just that he has continually gotten into foul trouble, kind of like Walt used to at the beginning of last yr.

    Did you see the kind of offensive plays Mo made in the 1st half? His moves on offense are very quick, decisive and effective. KT tries to display a bunch of footwork with a whole lot of spin moves only to get the ball swatted back in his face. KT is just not finishing at the offensive end 5-15 stinks.

    Yay for Kenny. Let's hope we see more of this often.

    ------------------
    Francis out top, 9 seconds on the clock, he gives a no look pass to Cuttino Mobley, 4 seconds left, Mobley passes to an open Langhi in the corner with 1 second left! Langhi at the buzzer.......YES!!! How Sweet It Is!!

    I've seen Mo give 100% in almost every game this year. He does hustle at least in my opinion, and maybe more than KT. Tonight was absolutely horrible officiating- several of his calls were just pure BS.
