Not looking good for Elston Turner if he wants a head coaching job. And everyone wasnts to get on Lee, what about Scola. He was getting killed all night. I knew as soon as he was put back in the game the lead was going to be lost. I would have kept Jeffries in there b/c at least he was doing something. Scola was a black-hole all night.
A few random notes: Luis looked a bit tired tonight. Jeffries got no love from the refs or the rim. Bud should start. Next time, I hope CLee will just throw the ball high in the air and end it there. If we ever have to defend a .4 sec in-bound play, camp someone near the rim!
Martin was on the bench because Battier was on the bench too. CBud outplayed Battier. You cannot put Martin, CBud, & Brooks on the floor at the same time. If Battier isn't on the floor, Lee has to to be on the floor to play perimeter defense. Of course, if Lowry is avaialbe, he can play together with CBud & Martin.
I guess they could look at it that way..... Either way, doesn't matter....preseason.....and we are better than both the Mavs and the Spurs this year....gonna be a fun year. DD
Man what was Miller doing on that last play? What an idiot. Why wasn't he telling his teammates to watch out for the alley. Man I hate Miller. He sucks because of that last play.
Should get used to losing games in the 4th a lot during the season. Happens to deep teams without a legit closer. Write.that.down
I'm not sure if how much of tonight was supposed to be the regular-season rotation and substitution that was advertised. There was a lot of mixing and matching happening, and the lineup for the final minutes (no Martin or Yao?) struck me as strange. Good to see Hill getting some PT though. Does that mean he's part of the regular rotation now?
I think he has to be because Yao will be off on back to back games..... I do think we have 1 or 2 too many in the rotation, but let's just see what happens in the end. DD
