    Don't know what game you were watching but AB chased Paul around all night and actually he did a really good job on him. On those possessions that Paul got into the lane, he literally used Yao as a pick on AB to get those shots. AB did force Paul into some tough fade away shots and he still made them. Blaming AB for Paul going off is just stupid. Paul does this to everyone so blaming AB is flat out absurd. I think Paul had 12 points through 3 quarters and 4 or 5 assists? I'll take that every time. And Lowry guarded Paul for a good stretch in the 4th where he went off as well so go figure.

    The game today was in reach until Lowry picked up his last fall. There was a glimmer of fool's gold when AB came in, but it went downhill fast.

    Through three quarters...

    Come to think of it, we seem to be having a problem with that fourth one. The one where great point guards take over the game...

    There was nothing wrong with Brook's game tonight.

    Wrong, a superstar who is primarily a passer you force to shoot......you always try to take a player out of their comfort zone.

    Paul wants to pass....make him a scorer and the rest of the team idly standing by....

    It's funny how Paul wasn't hitting those shots when Lowry was on him. Right? :rolleyes:

    Right. He just should not have been matched up with Chris Paul too much.

    5 game win streak?

    @Spurs- If the previous games are any indication...Spurs will win this game. It'll be close until the 4th, then the Spurs realize it's gametime. Bonner hits some big shots, Manu hits some big shots...L

    V T'Wolves- Should definitely be a W.

    @Was- If Arenas is back...I can smell a lot of trouble for us. Wall has been a monster. It SHOULD be a W...but I thought the same for the GSW game.

    @Ind- We always lose to Indiana.

    @ NYK- Toss up. But honestly Stoudamire will get one of our bigs in foul trouble as usual. Felton will probably look like a superstar along with some other unknown player.

    Overall I don't see this as a definite 5 game winning streak. Man if someone told me we'd go 1-4 or 2-3 over this stretch I would not be surprised at all.

    Brooks looks confused setting up the offense and hasn't learned to play a lick of D.

    At least he can still score in bunches.

    If you expect your PG to outplay CP3, you will be dissapointed with anyone playing your point.

    Brooks was effecient, he had low turnovers.

    Not when it counts to help us to a win. To his credit though, tonight's loss was not his fault. Paul just scored at will on us whenever we tried to get close.

    And what does he do against every other team? The same thing. It's laughable. There are just some players you can't guard.

    Kobe, Chris, and LeBron. You just hope they don't torch you and pray that their teammates suck that day.
