This game is somehow tied

[Thinking Skins]

Ok, singleton's getting some action.


Gotta say that I'm not too disappointed with the effort tonight. Shots are not quite falling but our defense is looking a lot better and as a result we're right in this game. And I like Beals involvement - and as I type this we're tied at 28,

Just noticed that Beal's +/- is now +4, not saying thats too important, but worth noting. He's still 1/5 shooting, but he's been involved in other ways tonight actively playing defense and getting his hands on the ball a lot more, not looking as lost as in previous games.

[Thinking Skins]

Webster's shot is falling tonight. So is Beal's. Looks like we might be ok taking those threes tonight.

[Fight4RGIII]

Hell yeah, Beal!

[Popeman38]

Seraphin has a chance to be a MONSTER in this league. A Karl Malone type.

[Thinking Skins]

I'm loving our defense tonight.

[StillUnknown]

Seraphin has to start, he is our offense right now.

Webster in for Ariza would help as well, but that seems to be obvious to everyone but the guy making the call.

Ariza looks like he's just going through the motions out there.

positive - Beal getting good looks

negative - Beal not making said good looks

[Thinking Skins]

I'm seeing a lot more team ball tonight. And as a result we're getting a lot more open shots, both inside and outside. We're not making enough of those shots, but given our talent and our injuries thats a large reason why we've kept it close

And Price with the deep three as the clock expires!

[Renegade7]

Ya, three games in, this is a better team then last year at least. Better defense and ball movement. Still throwing the ball out of bounds too much for my liking. I don't have much of a reference point, but it bothers me seeing it so much with us...

[StillUnknown]

Vesely first instinct is to always pass.

He caught the ball 3ft from the hoop and immediately looked to the outside to give up the ball, didn't see anybody, then rushed the short shot and missed.

Gotta find some kind of confidence to go up strong when he gets the ball that deep.

Singleton is the one recent draft pick that's been frustrating me.

Book and Ves are also too hesitant with their shots. Sometimes Ves shoots it like he should, but I feel like Book overthinks it and tries to force the ball inside to Seraphin.

Beal is palying a lot better tonight. Seraphin is also rebounding better tonight too. He's our center of the future.

He's gotten to the point where he'll finally take the jumper in rhythm at least. Not that he'll make it.

On the whole, I think our entire team is too focused on makes and misses. The only young guys who are letting it rip are Crawford and Seraphin. Price, Ariza, and Webster do it too, but Price and Ariza don't need to be shooting much.

[Fight4RGIII]

I wish our PF's could shoot as well as KG, Bass, and Green

[BRAVEONTHEWARPATH93]

Game was tied when I left to get my girlfriend...I come back were down 8

WTF happened?

[Thinking Skins]

Horrible decision by Pargo!

[stevemcqueen1]

Pargo is a dumbass. That early clock three was awful. And if you're going to foul a guy going for an easy layup, hit his friggin arms. He's just stupid with his fouls.
