    Every time we play a terrible team, I need to lay down a bet on Martin dropping 30. Better return than any mutual fund could get me!

    They may have mentioned this on the broadcast (I missed the first 2.5 quarters... will be watching on DVR later tonight), but Aaron Brooks has made 26 straight free throws... including 25 in a row since he got back from injury.

    Anybody who wants to trade Kevin Martin is insane. You don't trade a guy like this unless its for a superstar.

    Replace Brooks with Smith. I'm tired of him dribbling to the baseline and make a dangerous cross court bounce pass.

    Lowry was at 22 as well....that is, until they flashed it on the screen right before his 2nd free throw......

    what's the league minimum to be counted in the top 10? AB would be #1 if he met that I think.

    Agreed. I'm not sure I've ever watched anyone score as efficiently as he does. What he lacks in defense he makes up for in his efficiency imo.

    I know we're winning but this defense is horrible, 95 points allowed with 7:30 left to go

    I hate how brainless fans compare Brooks and Lowry to their scoring only. Thats not a PGs main duty. A PGs main duty is to controll the team on the floor, guide them through plays, find easy shots for them. Lowry does an excellent job of this - just look at his +/- ery game. It is alwasy in the high +, even when he hardly scores, because he does all that other stuff so well. His value is measured in how smooth the team looks out there on the floor.

    Brooks cannot run or control a team. Its not his game, the only way he can make a impact on this team is through quick and effective scoring - which he is faling miserably.

    The thing I hate the most about Aldemans offensive scheme is how he alters the role for the two most important positions on the floor - The PG and the C. While every successfull scheme/style prefers a playmaking pass first PG and dominant low post C, Aldeamn changes their role to a shoot 1st PG and a high post C. It worked 10-15 years ago but it has been an absolute FAIL for us.

    Its high time for Aldeman to GTFO.
