Don't know if the corner had been turned, but...

Good post dba. This looks like a fairly balanced team with some chemistry now. I give coach Frank a lot of credit. He still seems to be giving Daye more minutes than necessary. WDR has been a good influence on the team and Will and Wilkens have faded to the end of the bench. The big surprise for me is how well Max has played as a starter. I didn't see that coming. And JJ seems much more effective off the bench.

Nice post dba. The thing I like about Lawrence Frank as a coach is he's consistent in his rotations, and he's flexible about it. His players know what to expect, and they can play without fear of being relegated to the doghouse for one bad game. I think that's key, especially with regard to the development of young players.
There's a good piece on the official site with comments from the fresh faced lad that I thought was interesting. To summarize, it was basically if you want freedom and not have to run sets, if you want to run, first you have to defend. A young team like this, with a speedy PG and bigger guys like JJ and Monroe who run the floor well, they're going to thrive in that kind of free flowing offense.

Good post DBA. I think you summed everything up pretty well. Ben Wallace taken out of the starting line-up was also a good move. I too am surprised by the rejuvenated Maxiel. He seems to compliment Monroe very well and vice versa. Just think if we had a complimentary SF to back up Prince or for that matter replace Prince in the lineup.

My favorite part about the recent win streak is it gives the fans something to cheer for and a reason to go to games while we head for a one of the league's worst records. Hope sells tickets baby!

I really have no problems with Lawrence Frank. He's been a really good coach for a rebuilding situation and I think that he'll be good once we're back. Most of it is his demeanor- sets a tone that it is a learning environment and doesn't grandstand with fake emotion when things aren't going our way. You can tell that he has the respect and command of the team... which is a first since Carlisle/ LB.

The bad teams will make us look much better than we are, but I do agree that there is some cohesion building lately. Guys seem to be playing unselfishly and having fun. Everybody is rooting for each other, helping on D, diving for loose balls, making the extra pass, etc.

Our guys definitely aren't moping around. They are losing with some professionalism.

Totally cool with this. I didn't watch the wizards game, but I am big on modesty by professional sports players.

They have a very modest record......

...yet another good slogan for the PS&E marketing department to consider.

So far, I like Lawrence Frank. I really, really dislike watching Prince and Maxiel play......BUT, for some reason, they are playing differently and better this past couple of weeks. The coach must have something to do with these changes.

Good points have been made about the team looking good against poor competition. The corner will not be turned this season record-wise, but perhaps it will be turned attitude-wise. Players are being held accountable for a change. Working hard and playing the right way is being rewarded (i.e., Walker D). This is a great sign. The losses will keep piling up, though, simply because of the lack of talent.

could they reach .450 ?

It all depends on how you define "assett." Right now, Joe D says Prince and Stuckey fall under the "assett" tag.

If your breathin.......and have skills within reason........Join our basketball season............

I think they just went back behind the corner again.

What's a "stack overflow 3" ?
