    Let's face it, folks. The only defense we can play is getting the rebound after a Portland miss.

    I think he is the problem in the sense that he's not the superstar he was last year and he is gigantic negative on one side of the floor.

    The other guys outside of howard and harden are just role players

    I hope to see Terry get some play in the 2nd half. At least he is a three point shooting threat and spreads the floor. What does Lawson do?

    Did you happen to show the rest of the team how to put the ball in the basket or play defense?

    We can't box out and allow a bunch of offensive rebounds so we are not even good at doing that.

    6 of them was Harden just passing the ball to them at the beginning of a set

    Beverley needs to be bringing the ball up

    I had no idea Avery was coaching college ball now.

    I was actually thinking Houston should take a look at him if he wasnt coaching anywhere...h well.

    Gave up on this team a long time ago. I don't stress a loss or celebrate a win.

    Bench is becoming a weakness fast

    Thornton
    Smith
    Lawson
    Capela

    These guys are almost wasting possessions during games now
    Combined they may have 3 good games outta 10

    At one point Harden and Howard had not missed a shot the rest of the team 1-10. Damn Morey and his r****ded coaching choices and inability to find solid role players and the ridiculous love affair with the three point shot.

    And to think we thought we had the deepest bench in the league at the start of the year.

    I'd rather have Jermey Lin Tarik black than lawson and capela.

    It's hard to argue what he said for sure.

    Avery or Thibs would definitely conflict with Harden. Too disciplined with the defensive coaching.

    I thought they'd be top 5 before the season started..now I feel they are a bad combination. Two point guards that hang out at the 3 point line and brick. Wow...great imagination JB. Allows teams to double team Harden with ease like last night and tonight. This plays into Lawson's weakness not his strengths. Might be the second game in a row our point guards play sub zero practically which exposes the entire teams weaknesses even more so...way too much pressure for the Rox to overcome with just 1 pure playmaker which is Harden. I'd trade Beverly or Lawson with another scrub like Jones for one of Atlanta's players that are on the trade block. As crappy as Lawson is playing he still has more upside than Beverly right nowas bad as they both are playing. Just my opinion tho.
