Same old same old! Thanks for the streak rockets!

 

haha Cleo is right

 

you're right he shouldve put Novak in to lock David West down.

 

Exactly.

 

The NBA should review this game. Look at the Chandler foul see if a suspension is deserved (don't know myself) and for how it has been refed. You can't all of a sudden flip the switch can call crap. Plus the refs who are calling crap are the ones not in the best position. These refs should be reviewed may not be cut out ofr this level.

 

at least the Nuggets lost tonight. not all bad news.

 

i mean i figured we'd lose both these games after the lakers game anyway, but it's just the getting blown out and manhandled in the second half that sucks. tmac has done jack crap in either game, he can't shoot even when he gets a shot (what's new), the role players have come crashing back to earth and for some reason adelman has gone away from his freewheeling substitutions and gone conservative van gundy style.

hopefully it's just horrible fatigue and the inevitable bad games that come with ending a 22 game win streak and the effects of not having landry (it really is a damn big deal) b/c i don't want the rest of the season to look like this. the comraderie, the spirit, none of it is there. you can handle losing if that's there, but we lost it somewhere and better get it back.

the warriors and suns games and probably losses at this point so we have to make sure we turn it back on for the 8 game stretch where we play 7 non-playoff teams right after.

 

Even if it is fatigue, which surely plays a big part in this pathetic display the last two nights. You only have one day to rest up for another back to back.

There's no time to rest for the rest of the games. I have a bad feeling about the rest of the week if we're this tired NOW.

 

f u c k the refs! man the last foul on chandler was a flagrant foul.

 

Adelman will ride these guys to death like he rode Yao to injury. He's been playing the same lineup for pretty much the entire second half without any rest. He's literally going to ride this wagon until the wheels fall off (and they're starting to).

The losses themselves aren't the issue here (they're two very good teams), but the fatigue factor will be difficult to compensate for. Adelman is not very good at balancing minutes for his key players to limit fatigue/wear and tear.

 

i really don't think novak would have single-handedly turned this thing around.

 

lol bill worrell is pissed

 

no offense monster, but before calling out all the bandwagoners, it should be noted you signed up right in the middle of the streak

 

Fatigue is definitely an issue tonight.

 

That's what it is. we are TIRED. We can't run. If you are tired you can't do anything. It would be good to hve week off and hell we play again on friday....

 

Did I say he has to play him at the power foward spot? no.

 

Scola great game, but i like to see his short jumper back. I can not wait to see Landry back.

 

Tracy has no legs, He is very very TIRED out there,no legs,no elevation,nothing.

 

tracy isnt a superstar im sorry that is why he is not preforming like one you dont have to double him no more if i were other teams i would play him straight up because he cant get around his man
