2 Weeks in:

[BigMike]

It is nice watching every game this year, and to finally have it in HD! Thats the good news....

Sadly, even this kool-aid drinking fan doesn't like what I am seeing.
Why do the 2's look like they are playing at such a faster pace then the 1's?
Why can only 1 of our starters have a good game each night?
Why are we only 8th in D so far?
Why are we DEAD LAST in O?
How long until we can trade Doris?
How have we been down by double digits after the half in almost every game this year?
How have we pulled up to make it a close loss in every game this year?
What happed to Capt. jacks Swagger?
Why does Crash look out of control? (not in a good way)
Who is going to get fined more this year Jack or LB?
How the heck did we make it to the half of a game with out getting on the line!?
We are shooing .814 from the line, but our opponents are shooting .819!
Hollinger has is ranked 27th, just ahead of the Nets, Wizzards, and Wolves.
Stein has us down to 28th ahead of the Raptors and the Wolves.
Are the reffs really just blind? or targeting Stephen Jackson? Or ...?

ya... all that and more.
So whats bothering you?

The thing that is bothering me most is:

* Why is Tyrus Thomas getting far less minutes than McBoris when the team is clearly better with TT on the court?

This confuses the Hell out of me.

Or, better yet, why don't they play together? Boris is a 2 inch shorter version of Nazr (probably weighs more than Naz, too) and Tyrus is a 1 inch shorter but more athletic version of Gana. Just play both...

We need TT to play 30 mins a game minimum in my opinion. When he gets big minutes, he produces really well (generally). He's picked up his consistency and can score a lot better. Need to bench Jack when he's failing hard, Hendo can play some good minutes.

What bothers me:
Diaw's vertical, he can't elevate for crap
Lack of TT playing time
Turnovers
Captain Jack

Lack of team cohesion...some guys (the younger ones) seem to play with energy but I can't say the same for some of our older players...TOs off-and-on but primarily Jack in that category...passing is not crisp on too many occasions...ball movement is fine but our off-ball movement is sad IMO and I'd like to see some better offensive schemes but I've wanted that since LB has been here...

I do like the fact that some of our younger guys are getting more PT...

All good points. But can you imagine the fallout if LB keeps sitting Jax? Guy will blowup and we will have a fiasco on our hands and wont be able to trade him. If things keep going badly, he has to be the first to go as opposed to sitting him. Otherwise he loses all his trade value.

Outside of the non-stop turnovers, Nazr's play has to be the biggest concern for me. If he could regain the form he had this time last year, I think things would look a little better. If we're not going to get the offensive production from Nazr right now, I'd rather Gana start. Gana has improved on making himself available near the basket and is proving able to score some. Adding that to the defense he brings may be what the starting unit needs at the moment.
