    ariza has tried to drive all 3 times he looked to score: good sign.

    Man, Ariza's game is so sweet when he drives to the basket. I wish he did that more often.

    New rule: Ariza, every time you think of shooting (not driving) pass the ball to Landry.

    we played very well in the first, and ariza is at his best. only took one jumper really and drove every time. he needs to keep at that.

    gotta go to landry, they have no one to stop him.

    Noticed on our last defensive possession we had Lowry chasing Terry with Brooks on Kidd. Should be the other way around. only just tuned in, so not sure if it was just that one possession or not.

    Battier with a very strong first quarter. Got it done at both ends.

    those misses are from jumpers, including his fts. i think he's just not a very good shooter unless he plays like shane battier. we have to accept that.

    despite the 1-4, he looks much much better b/c of his willingness to drive. i mean, who's stopping him? they aren't doubling or pressuring him. he needs to drive if he looks to score. if not, just don't be involved and just park himself in the corner.

    We will lose the lead if Ariza keeps shooting like this...this is why Budinger is important to our team. He helps maintain the lead rahter than lose it

    Problem with Ariza is that he doesn't finish well unless he dunks, and he can't hit free throws if fouled. It's a bad scene.

    we need to take advantage of Dampier being in foul trouble and attack the basket more....

    Ariza is getting to the line more. But he's still 1-4, and can't hit FT's. Also had that one bad pass. Not a bad first quarter, but could have finished better.
