First of all, losing sucks.

Now that I got that off my chest, I respectfully disagree that JMax should be starting Lee. I think that he is more effective, as from what I've seen these past few games, coming off the bench. But he should be taking up more minutes from Dice and Sheed. Somewhere around 30 + minutes as what he's getting now.

I'm happy with Afflalo getting minutes. Minutes that count to boot. I'm not quite sure if Flip will yield to Stuckey when he returns though. He's more inclined to play Hunter and FlipM. With our coach, he'd probably cut into Afflalo's minutes.


Flip was wrong in this game. Nazr should have played some Yao. Dice should have rested kind of like that game when Sheed got banged up and decided to sit out the rest of the game, if I remember correctly, and JMax stepped up. He should give some leeway for other guys to do something for the team. I know we've been harping on Nazr almost all season but the least he would have done would be to expend his 6 fouls and send Yao to the line where they were atrocious. Nazr has shown more this season to merit some time, IMO than last season.

FlipS is inconsistent and doesn't quite have a handle on his matchups and in game adjustments, and he doesn't have that in-game feel that other coaches have.

Billups will be Billups.

Rip is really forcing the isolations and one-on-one situations when he should be more of that road-runner-coming-off-screen players, running his defender ragged. He isn't using his speed and stamina as well as before IMO. Loved seeing him come off screens and shooting that jumpshot.

Sheed will be Sheed.

Keep your head up Tay. Keep shooting. Keep in the game.

FlipM uggh.

Amir??? He needs the game time. And its not like he's really stinking the place up when he plays. He does well, gives effort. Defense is there. Offense will come with more playing time. PLAY HIM FLIP!!!!
