Battier a big key. His play has been wau below what im used to seeing. The last two games however he has looked really good in blow out wins. He looks healthy for the first time all year and its making a big difference.
Last year...the world economy is better. But what about this year??? You known Intel (ShangHai, China) will close down and will together with ChengDu branch, China. Past is past, we are now.
Unfortunately we have many "x-factors" on this team. One of them didn't play tonight -- and yes, we seem to be a better team without the "injured" T-Mac, but the jury is still out on if we would be better with a healthy one; may not know that this year, or ever. The othe two big x-factors (Batman and RonRon) are finally looking like they are healthy. You can't defend or shoot without legs (or feet/ankles in their cases). Other x-factors: Can Yao consistently be agressive dominant force inside? Can Von continue playing like a young T-Mac? Can Scolandry stay out of foul trouble? Can Rafer play "good" on a consistent basis (not great nor terrible, but just good should be good enough)?
I see this is your first post. Welcome to the Clutch BBS "where you're only as good as your last game".
We've lost to a number of teams which are worse than the Nets this year ... usually when TSlack is in the lineup.
It's a start. This is exactly the type of game we "should" win but were losing before the all-star break. Signs of hope.
Terrible trade. The only reason we have stayed afloat this season is with our depth. We do this trade we're looking at the JVG years all over again.
Then who would say like"lets trade Rafer" etc... His performance was impressive to me, lets the how the last two games he did. His n-looking pass, running pass, 3s, TO & his contract. I will only trade him for CP3 with sth
Hey, just curious. Does anyone have stats showing Rafer's performance without T-Mac playing over the years? And with (for comparison)? That should be interesting to look at, because it seems like Rafer thrives when he gets some more time with the ball in his hands.
