Noah is tearing us up on the offensive and defensive end. The influence Noah is having on this game is that he's instilling fear in our players. Nobody wants to take it ALL OF THE WAY to the basket. They go about half or three fourths of the way to the basket and throw up a jumper or floater. Most importantly, if they just take it the rim, they could have a high percentage shot, especially when there is nobody under the basket and the defense is out of position to block a shot . Dragic is really the only one with the balls to consistently take the ball all the way to the rim and finish with a layup. Scola and Parsons have also been driving it but they just haven't been as successful as Dragic. We have to give credit where credit is due because Noah has 3 blocks and Asik swatted Morris once. I have to say it again though, I'm worried about Budinger. He just looks very passive out there and seems frightened of attempting a layup or a dunk. This is rubbing off on Courtney Lee by settling for jump shots, all of them misses.
If by "screwed" you mean tied, then you are correct. Too early to throw in the towel for this season, in my opinion. Probably going to come down to the last couple games of the season.
glad to see Morris finally getting some worthwhile minutes... he was so right to be offended by going to the d league... lol
Scola is damn sneaky out there tonight. Picking pockets. Ugh...another missed wide open 3. Dragic distributing the ball beautifully.
