    I don't think he's even tried to do that move yet. At least I don't remember him trying.

    Wonder if Strawberry is going to get a shot at it anytime soon?

    Wafer's day today though.

    Can't see how Francis is going to find a spot in this rotation.

    How good was the help defense in the second quarter. as soon artest came in, we took it to another level.

    I think Artest is a much better perimeter shooter than his
    reputation indicates.

    If they cut brooks loose off th defensive rebs, he can be a 1 man fast break like parker. His end to end quickness and speed is un-parrelelled.

    i don't know where parris isl is but as long as u get internet connections, sopcast is your best friend and you'll still get most of the games from the season...if not live, u can always download them back...

    this is certainly NOT the season you want to miss!

    Brooks positives:

    Nailed a 3 early.
    Blocked Parker.
    Stripped parker.
    Blew past 3 guys for a layup that should have been an And1.
    Fed Harris in traffic for a dunk.

    Brooks negatives:

    Stuffed at the rim.
    Missed layup at the rim.
    Got stripped.
    Couldn't hit an open mid-range shot.
    Still having trouble setting up the offense.

    Some good, some bad. I'm still optimistic.

    Relax. Spurs are playing without Ginobili, Duncan, Finley, Bowen... their 2nd unit was really bad. But one thing we can say is we have DEEP and they don't, for sure.

    And DEEP = lot of wins in RS. We must go for the 1st seed.

    he has improved it alot since he came into the league. he really works hard on his game, just look at the progression of his 3 pt shooting percentages throughout his career.

    Word.

    He still has to clean up his decision-making and learn when not to force penetration.

    Plenty to like out of Brooks' 1st half tonight.

    If we dont get out of the first round this year, then we will never. We have the team, we have the coach, we have the talent.

    No excuses.
