    Scola is a lot more consistent and confident this season, I think he became more confident after he started at C in place of Yao for a few games last month. Behind Yao and Artest, he's a solid third offensive option. 3b is brooks/lowry. I'm not worried about a lack of offense on this team without T-mac, because of the players we have and because of who our coach is. Adelman will always maximize the offensive potential of players who know how to pass and shoot.

    Sometime a change of scenery can do wonder for a player's career, I really like this kid Lowry!

    Adelman is WAY more active coaching with no Tmac or Rafer out there.

    THere's a lack of communication between our PGs and the bigs. Lowry should not be going under the screen when Yao hanging back like that.

    Lowry is gonna have to learn how the defend the P&R with Yao. With Yao is a special defense because he doesn't make the flash. Lowry is all the time counting with it, but Yao doesn't responds (logic).

    Ok this will be key to winning the game now. Yao needs to go and let us see if the offense suffers. I hope Cook can spell Yao some minutes.

    That's the problem. He shouldn't play whole quarters because he starts losing his stamina and becomes inefficient the last few minutes of the quarter.

    Lowry and Brooks are going to be A okay! If we cut down the turnovers, our lead would be like 20 by now.
