^^ Thanks!

Rip-throughs are still fouls, just not supposed to be shooting fouls.

Neither of the guards, including Gordon is a good passer, I mean not even .500 on attempts /dimes. They just don't seem to know how to pass, over the top, perfect lobs, or bounce passes, or hand offs. Why cant they get better at that.? We waste numerous possesions, with missed pass opptys, other turnovers, and if we shoot < 45% we lose. Chris Paul really spoiled me on what I should expect from a point guard and he was young and at his most thrilling. I guess he was once in a lifetime, but Gordon hasnt replaced that, or Vasquez.

That's why ad is not a 5.

Wait and THAT's not a foul!?

we are so screwed with fouls already.

^^I knew it would be bad this morning when I saw Danny Crawford officiating.

Apparently they're still choosing who to call those fouls for. Durant is surely still getting it called for him.

Gordon is an above avg passing sg. He's rusty man. Everyone has to stop frettin over his play this year. Wait til next year. After he has a productive n healthy offseason under his belt.

Because Lopez hooked him with his chicken wing??

Even though he got stuffed, really like the hustle I'm seeing out of Amundson already.

I would LOVE for a reporter to ask Monty post game why we don't cross match.

Why does our media suck so much?

I'm at the game right now. Lets go Hornicans!!!

Because they are heartbroken by wins, I think.

How is the Barclay Center in person?

AD... nice up and under

So not a foul on Lopez for that contest on Davis?

omg what a finish by davis w the finger role

Oh my 5 fouls for both our centers combined in 11 minutes of play...

I think it's safe to say that this hasn't been the best of 1st qtrs

amundson looks great so far, 3 fouls in 4 mins and got stuffed

Roberts w/ a smooth looking jumper

then Roberts makes a smooth move and gets Thomas to the line (and a foul on B. Lopez)

I guess that's Brook's first foul heh?

He's a less athletic, less skilled, less coordinated Jason Smith. :shrug:

He backed him straight down and put it rt up over him with ease. U replied to this late so maybe another play happ since the play I'm speaking on cause I didn't see him hook him on that play. Just backed him down with ease. Regardless davis is and should be a 4 which is his more natural position anyway. I just see some ppl projecting this kid to be our c in the future. I don't see it in the cards.

Roberts to AD on the bounce... slammin it home

Roberts not looking too bad out there last game or this one so far. Makes better passes with Davis than gv.

what in the **** has gotten into Brian Roberts? he's looking competant

12-0 Hornicans run... now just down 1

Right!!!!

Ummm... this zone is looking mighty good against the brooklyn bench. Good way to cover up the mismatch with Lance on Blatche.

Did Blatche really just run by Lopez? Wow...

and just like that the deficit's up to 6

edit: Lance Thomas timing the tip back perfectly

way too many 3s by Brooklyn

Did roberts even hit him? C'mon refs.

That's the story for every loss.

If Lopez and Greivis remain with the team in the future, I really don't think you can afford to play them at the same time. Way to slow.

Was Deron not all out of bounds just now?

Look... a team shooting lights out at the 3pt line... We've seen this before... Play some damn defense.

bench gets us a 12-0 run... starters see the deficit balloon back up to 12

Vasquez is to slow footed to get out and contest that three.

Wow, Grevis and Lopez come into the game and we slow dowm 50mph. Why did Monty take out the guys that were hustle guys? Grevis and Lopez are too slow.

EJ airmails a straightaway 3 :idoh:

Gordon with the... airball.

EJ ANNNNNNNNNNNNNDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD 1111111111111111111111111!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I love when players catch and move instantly... it's just amazing.
