Great game going on in OKC

philly has to be the most disappointing team so far

[Ebbs]

Philly is the team that people wanted to see make noise this season. Luckily they still can but they clearly need Bynum in there.

Honestly my favorite player to watch right now behind LeBron is Mayo. First time since all star Josh Howard IMO the Mavs have had a legit #2 option.

I said from Day 1, Philly and Indiana got worse. I wasn't lying either. Damn.

when is dirk coming back?

How's Philly been disappointing? They had a winning record coming into tonight without Bynum.

when is dirk coming back?

Allegedly things are moving slower than expected. No immediate time table.

Anyone can have a winning record but their play says it all.

-6-1 Preseason
-Beat Denver by double digits in the opener
-Lose to NY by 20
-Lose to NY at home by 20
-Beat the Hornets by 15
-Beat Boston by double digits
-Lose to Milwaukee by double digits
-Losing to Detroit by 20

They've been inconsistent now and last year and Bynum isn't going to help either when he is still unhealthy clearly and still unproven as a 1st option. They will still have tons of growing pains with him getting healthy and these games will haunt them down the stretch.

Beard with 17 in the first half, Marcus Morris with 11?

You're looking way too much in to it. It's only the 2nd week of the season, teams all across the league are still trying to find their identity, especially Philly. They traded their best player from last season and currently don't have their best player while playing a lot of new guys and young players. Of course they're going to have their inconsistencies.

They've been trying to find it for a year now. Last year started: 20-6 and ended 16-24. They got worse defensively and their offense is lacking due to obviously no Bynum but because they have streaky shooters.

I know it's only the 2nd week but they have the same problems as last year with lesser defensive pieces.
