    Our team defense and rebounding has not been where it needs to be. How about the offense?

    Here are a few excerpts from the article:

    Any thoughts about McGrady's comments? Adelman's?

    I guess the article is just stating the obvious which is pretty much the norm with Feigen.

    I want to hear Bill Worell say" T-Mac to the rack" about 10 times tonight. Thats the only way he's gonna be able to fight through it is to be agressive and attack the rim. No more jumpers for you Tracy until further notice.

    That 2nd unit has chemistry, Brooks, Landry, Barry and Luther. When they come into the game theres alot of movement.

    You can't have Brooks, Head and Barry on the floor together. That's a defensive meltdown waiting to happen. I hope Adelman learned his lesson. I believe that was the group on the floor when the Lakers blew the game open.

    Head now is on the edge of bench,our 2nd unit are too tiny,Luther is on the edge of bench,a lot of movement is a advantage,sometimes may play very well,but the second unit's defence is poorly,Hayes and Landry are better,but still not good enough.I prefer Ron come off the bench after Shane come back,so we can be better.

    Tell us something we don't know. The offense of our starting lineup has been an issue in this very young season.

    I really don't know how we can play Adleman ball with the current personnel who start for us. They are incredibly talented, but not the right type of players for our coach.

    Chemistry comes through committment.

    The 2nd unit has it, the first does not.

    I hope T-Mac sits out. Two days of rest is not enough to fix what's wrong with him. Give him a couple of weeks. We played better without him against the Lakers, and we can beat Phoenix without him.

    Yes, let him sit out.

    Then when he comes back, we'll have the excuse will be that he is rusty.

    If we continue to have bad game, we can use the excuse that we haven't had time to build chemistry.

    By then, we'll be able to start the 2009-2010 season.

    "I'm so inconsistent with health."

    That's his excuse for not trying? He is getting paid over 20 million dollars, and he won't try? That is a horrible excuse. You can't go around picks and at least try to put a hand on someone's face? You can't elevate a little quicker, before getting blocked by Kobe?

    We have no chemistry in our first unit. I see most of them trying, but it's just not clicking. Hopefully time will solve the problem.

    I think he put them in together by necessity. McGrady was not there to play, Rafer sucked, Artest couldn't play every minute, etc.

    T-mac needs to play off the ball and run through screens, him running the show and walking up the court is not working for us...i thought we were gonna see a fierce T-mac this year not another Lazy one...i think if he could just play off ball and catch and shoot or up fake and take it to the rack off screens we would demolish defenses...we have to much talent to be playing 1 on 1
