Dwight is just going to miss or get fouled or get an offensively foul. It's not hate it's the truth there's no conspiracy against Howard. He sucks now.
Dwight was 3-4 last night (and even 1-2 FTs). He had 13 rebounds and 3 blocks. There were at least two times I saw when he rolled to the basket open while a teammate ignored him and shot instead. DMo was 1-7. Brewer was 0-7. I am fine with trading or not re-signing him next year. But when he is working hard you and still an effective paint scorer you have to get him the ball more than four times.
It's actually very believable. JB is the coach. It is entirely expected that Brewer will play more than he should.
Lol 22,000,000 marquee player and we get excited when he goes 1-2 from the free throw line. Jesus christ.
The point is he was trying. If he could be set up with some lobs that would be good. His athleticism combined with a sense of urgency is a win win situation.
JB will be the reason why we don't make the playoffs. Even if we manage to make it, JB will be the reason we lose in the 1st round.
Honestly, this game was a lot like their game against the Cavs only this time the shoe was on the other foot - so to speak. Again, everyone is b****ing at JB when, from where I see it, this team has adapted the drive and attitude of it's two "star" players. It's just not a championship vibe I see coming from the both of them.
Didn't watch the game (i find myself doing that a lot this year). But D-Mo was +23 and he played 12 minutes? Again I didn't watch, but whatever he was doing (or not doing) it wasn't hurting the team. I never thought I would long for Kevin McHale, Bickerstaff is a special kind of stupid.
DMO didn't play very well at all. Harden would have had 3-5 more assists with all the bunnies he missed. Help defense and effort always great though. Beasley played really well one of those nights +/- failed us.
Verdict: the team is playing better when Dmo on floor. He gives the ball movement so his teammates get a good look plus he rotates almost perfectly on defence making his team not to give open shots. It Doesnt matter if he missed few shots because most of times he has to create for himself and he rushed because he wants to prove himself to get more minutes on other hand he creates for his team and i bet he would have defended better against gasol/mirotic than dwight/beasley. End of! Give him more minutes because if he is not in shape by playoffs(another reason to play him more to even get there) we might as well say bye to any hopes to making into round 2. He has highest bball IQ on this team and the super coach not even intelligent enough to realise it. Not the only dmo fan but all this should have been obvious to most of you guys who can think basketball... Remember offence starts with defence. gl

Morey should tell JBB to bench Brewer - enough is enough and someone has to take charge and take away Bickerstaff's wubbie! DD

I thought Harden already said they were playing every game like it is game 7 in the playoffs? How much more desperate can they get?
