    i think we should've lost that game against charlotte as well.... those teams just want the game more than us somehow... guess we'll want it alot more if we are like 1-4 or something

    i would agree but seeing how we lost the two games i think people are upset. you should always beat the teams that are not as good as you, it doesnt always happen but you should. in the two games we lost the support for yao and mac was not there from anyone. i think this team is good enough to win when one of the 3 contributers (shane,mike, bonzi) has an off night but when all 3 do its going to be extremely tough.

    it takes 5 baby

    I am one of those guys that think we are not as good as our 6-2 record. While we fought the Bucks hard, Spurs routed them. We lost to a pretty bad Memphis team IMO, and we got lucky in the Bobcats game. RA hasnt done much to change our team so far, but it's still early. I wont be surprised that we hit a losing streak in the next a few games.

    Yep. PPG is the same. Do you think last year's team and schemes could have averaged the same amount of points with horrid shooting from Luther Head, Rafer Alston, and Shane Battier??

    i dont think chuck hayes is a fouling machine. he was just not getting any charge calls againist memphis. he was playin gasol pretty well too.

    rafer, head both suck and scola is the fouling machine.

    we really need to give francis a chance.im tired of hearing how hes not in shape or overweight. HES NOT. as long as he still got those hops like he showed in that hornets preseason game, i think hes ready to go.

    I don't see how you say Shane got 'old overnight.' Do you think he's slower, a worse shooter or a worse defender because I don't think any of those are true. He needs to shoot better because that's a big part of his job description, but he isn't exactly hitting his twilight. He played bad in Memphis and Charlotte but was around 40% 3pt before that, so I expect him to bounce back. He is still our best defender and one of our most important players.
