i posted this in the Knick game thread a little while back:
Turner played 23 minutes today. I think someone (besides Lavoy) is going to get benched soon and Turner is going to be candidate numero uno.Quote:

Starters were outrebounded 46-19. Ouch.
Turner needs more burn at the 2.Quote:

i bet you werent saying fire Collins after the Celtics win...
huge problem with our rebounding is the lack of ability to stop guard penetration. jrue is the only player i see who can do that. turner at times too. when a guard penetrates our bigs have to rotate which give offensive rebounding opportunities and open jumpshots on kick outs.
isnt that what ivey is supposed to do? well hes getting blown by so why in the world is he getting so many minutes?
I was joking with the collins comment...but my God, they should be embarrassed...I could see losing to them, but getting blown out at home by a winless team is ridiculous...Quote:

The W/L record doesn't look terribly good right now considering the early competition. Doug isn't exactly doing a terribly impressive job.

Our players tend to for the most part be somewhat disciplined defensively compared to the pre-Collins teams we've had to watch(except for getting back on defense lately) but the schemes are not impressive, and the personnel not so much either. Even if Brand was only playing 25 minutes in a Reggie Evans-type role, our team would be potentially much better. We couldn't defend a pick and roll last night. And we couldn't defend a 2nd year spot up shooter on the wing. How anyone could believe EB and Iggy don't dramatically improve our chances of defeating that team last night, I don't know what game is being watched.
