    Yeah. I honestly think we pull this one out with McGee in the game.

    Hey, the positive about the altercation tonight? It will force Luke's hand to try something new...

    Not playing a center to finish the game when we are getting killed on the boards and at the hoop is inexcusable. Unless McGee is at his minuets limit for the game, he needs to be out there. He wasn’t by the way, he played 20. Bad coaching.

    Right. Not to mention he had like 5 blocks. I’d say it was a head scratcher but Luke’s been doing this every season.

    I hope people will now realize what I've been saying this whole time, now that it's come from someone with a twitter account...

    Our halfcourt offense is trash. No surprise because we have a trash coach who knows how to do nothing but tell the team to push the pace.

    You've been right about your two lengthy debates so far. Ingram can't shoot and our half court offense sucks. Can't you be right about something positive? :Brows:

    There's enough people here quoting and liking each other's positive comments about our young core, potential, etc. And I'm all for it! But at some point, some of that optimism has to be grounded in reality.

    We're fine though. The point of this year was to buy time and assemble the best possible team on 1 year contracts while developing young talent, so we can ultimately make moves next offseason. That will be when the fun begins.

    For now, I'm content watching Paul get punched in the face.

    I agree. I meant jokingly, that I wish you could maybe use your assessment skills to prove something positive that was against the grain from the crowd here. Maybe Zu is actually a HOFer, lol.

    We desperately need to fix our back up center problem. Thats on Luke as much as it is on Magic and Rob to get him the personnel.

    Is McGee's asthma THAT bad? We're clearly a different team with him out there
