Today is definitely a measuring stick of a game. I was definitely one in the majority of expecting this team to be brutal all year. I've seen some potential and a win today gives me slight hope going into the season that it won't be a dumpster fire.

If we contain their perimeter game (i.e. Shabazz) we win. Zone or man-to-man D?

I agree that we have lots of holes in our lineup, except for a couple. Some positive flashes from players like Okafor (rebounding), Pierre, Xavier looked good yesterday off the bendh, Rojas (not yesterday, when stupid crept in), but if this team is going anywhere positive, they have to be more consistent, and a must is that Kenny Pohto has to start hitting 35% of his 3's.

AND, our shooting guards who are playing that position because they are SUPPOSE to be able to shoot threes ! Pierre and XB combined 3-25?

That’s pretty unbelievable. you almost have to be trying to miss to make that few

I think Bell is starting to relax a little bit, yesterday was very encouraging. I think he was nervous as hell the first few games

63-52 Shox. We finally hit the 33% mark on threes (a low bar, but would be an improvement) and defense remains stout.

And maybe WIN the opening tip for once to assert some aggressive athleticism!
...or just have Jaykwon do it.

Unfortunately, I only have three monitors at my works station and kind of need them all. Wish I had a five screen setup like a few others. I'd still use them all but I might be able to make due with only four and the game on the fifth.

Shrink the games down to quarter screen and stack 'em on a single monitor!

Surprise Surprise .. slow shooting start for us lol

[Kung Wu]

And San Francisco is nails, shooting the best shot in the game. Grrrrr

[Stickboy46]

Probably not a great idea to dare a team to shoot 3s when that is their strength ...
