I can take an off shooting night. What bothers me is the underpeformance of our higher paid players. DS, KCP and Montrel have done nothing. Kieff is just getting a fraction of what they make and he's being effective.


The ‘off shooting night’ is becoming the ‘usual shooting night’

All hype.


it is deep when you have LBJ and AD shoring up the starting rotation


Deep with an asterisk*

The squad requires 2 of AD, DS, LBJ, to be playing.


Fixed


Fixed (DS and LBJ and no AD they are I believe 7-2; you could actually argue I have no stats for AD + just DS or just LBJ)

MM for the most part without LBJ has been solid on both sides of the ball. DS has been a complete disappointment.


Well, DS talked the talk, but he hasn't walked the walk.

Don’t lose the cap hold. There is a reason he never started. Even Mo Williams was better.

One thing that is hard for me to not pay attention to is the fact vs the Hawks, with a true Center type (Jones), Lakers were competitive.

After they let Jones go and relying on Kieff, etc to be "Centers" their defense in the interior has been like a soft cushion. I know they chose to gamble with buyouts (Drummond), but the defense is just god awful without a true Center.


need to see if the gamble pays off

DS is a good spark role player off the bench for a championship team. That’s it.

Those OT games vs crappy teams should have been an early clue. Gasol was too slow and Trez too short.


Everyone bought into the hype we got better in the off season. We didn’t.


i have said it too many times that the FO messed it up big time. people were busy calling me a clippers fan and built a statue to Rob

Mo Williams was a sniper in his prime. DS is not really an outside threat. He, Lebron, and Delonte were a fun offense in 2009.

Who is gonna be on this team next year? Are we at the classic ‘blow it up’ stage if we don’t win it all again?

LBJ with no DS and no AD was 0-4.

Shrug. You can keep giving cute one liners, but the fact is LBJ with DS leading the team was actually a fairly competitive team. Not Finals caliber, but keep us in the top 2-4 in standings caliber.

To be fair, Lebron has played in some games where we were up by 20 or 30.

Right which is why it’s so absurd that Stu gets so upset when the other team leaves their starters in. lol ah Stu...
