Rivers gotta get better at ft

Rivers 2-2 from the FT line! Oh, 0-2...nevermind. :help:

How can you play shooting guard but can't shoot free throws?

It's that mother****ing chicken wing form. He needs to fix that **** in the off-season.

Rivers and Roberts. Noooo

We need a PG! A frickin SMART point guard!!!!!

He made one

Nice save Gibson

re; FT's .... I mean they're PRO's, stay all night every night till you can make 85% + isn't it a learned activity, repetition, muscle memory? Hire a FT coach.m

Don't expect mechanical stuff to improve during the season. That is something they work on in the off-season. It is mostly decision making and mental stuff that they work on during the season, it seems.

Bench being aggressive and drawing lots of fouls early in this quarter. I hope the starters keep it up when they come back in.

I hope I can make the roster and dress for a game since Monty loves to play everyone who dresses for a game. Keeping my fingers crossed.

Our SF and guard depth is so bad. :(

Roberts suxks

left bench in too long

it would be an ideal time to put your best 5 on the floor....

Still got six more minutes to turn this around.

What the hell just happened there.....

Maybe Eric Gordon isn't as good of a closer as we thought. I recall him blowing 3 games with awful passes straight into the opponents hands with less than 8 minutes to go.

How about Hinrich making Vasquez look foolish repeatedly...

Monty, looks like WTH toward his team. They look like they are still @ Allstar break. Freethrows and mind tests only at practice tomorrow. No excuse for effort like this after that break.

This has been incredibly painful to watch. Sloppy sloppy. This game also showed we need some more talent.

Gordon seems to turn it over during crunch time lately, a lot.

Eric Flippin Gordon.

Wow EJ. Slip n slide.

Bad loss...

"Those are grown up colors." "These here aren't grown up colors."

Right on David. I hear ya. :hihi:

When Gordon needs to create, he often just lowers his shoulder and drives directly into the defender, not even really trying to go around him. A lot of the time it results in him just turning it over. It's not the best way to create your own offense.

Gordon is not a max guy. He is a good talent, but if I were to just watch him having never heard any of the hype, I wouldn't be impressed.

Please!! draft a PG in the draft next year. I like Grevis, but he doesn't match-up with half the PGs in the NBA (too slow).

Vasquez can go now...c ya

This isn't a 100% healthy and nba shape Gordon. He can be much much better than this here. Give him time.

He doesnt match up with any. He will always be a liability on defense unless you put 4 other guys around him to mask his deficiencies.

If you had only watched him this year maybe. Otherwise no. He had max type performances multiple times last year alone. This year seems more an anomaly 30 minutes at a time. I'd reserve judgement until next year when he's on the floor more.

This reason alone will get us more fans.

Did Lopez get injured or did he just suck dog's b$%*s?

We definitely would have won if Anderson didn't shoot so poorly.

A healthy Gordon isn't a max guy in my opinion. Maybe worth 10 million but not 14 million.

Was that the tank that I heard getting reved up?

Wow. 4 page game thread.

Does lil' ol' me make that much an impact?

Just got back from the game and man we gave up too many offensive boards. It also didn't help that ryno was off tonight. Also for the first time i don't want eric gordon on the team anymore. It's hard for me to watch a guy play(supposedly core guy) while our team is still developing that probably won't be here next year. I hope we get a good haul in return and vasquez made a lot of bad decisions which changed the game in my opinion.

So...Luol Deng. Anyone on board with pilfering that man from Chi-Town?

I think he's better suited for a contender, a.k.a. Bulls with a healthy Rosé.

Better suited for him, yeah.

I want Avery Bradley. I'd trade Gordon and our first top 1 protected for Bradley and Jeff Green. That's my rare trade idea.

I consider Bradley a backup

I really liked that draft 42 brought up where we would land Deng. He is no face of a franchise, but he would be as solid an option as Ray Allen, Chris Bosh, or Pau Gasol.

When is the trade deadline exactly? Thursday at midnight so wednesday night?

Thursday 2 pm I think.
