I'll take it any way we can get it at this point.

Some interesting rotations - Boobie/JJ/Jawad benched completely - but I liked how Delonte got extended minutes and Jamison played well so can't bitch that much.

Overall though, Lebron playing 44 mins and Jamison playing 37 mins is too much IMO. Hickson can play 5-7 of Jamison's minutes for sure.

Thorton = Hell of a Player
Jamison + Delonte = MVPs

Hats off to Thornton, dude was efficient as hell on a 37 point game.

Yeah...he had a very impressive game.

I'm glad to see LeBron still likes chucking retarded 3s though. That needs to be fixed by the playoffs or it's going to cause problems.

 

[AmonRe]

if Mo ever finds his stroke again... look out!

 

[Silky Smooth]

I got to say Jamison's defense is way better than I expected.

 

[SteelSmack]

You know why LeBron made that terrible 3? Cause it wasn't off the dribble. So much harder to shoot in rhythm off the dribble.

 

[Gajin]

D. Gibson DNP - Coach's Decision
J.J. Hickson DNP - Coach's Decision
yeaa...

 

[Derek]

Well....
minus the 2nd quarter we killed 'em.
80-55

Hopefully the lapses will disappear as the team continues to gel into their new roles

 

[QuadrupleDouble]

man, I'm more aggravated about this win than I was the previous losses.

Someone needs their ass kicked a little in practice for this shit. And although Mo was hot garbage out there, it's not completely his fault.

I was glad to see Lebron do something other than jacking up a 3 with the shot clock at 1 when he drove to the hoop and fed Andy.

MB, you've got your work cut out for you

Exactly. Peja backed off. LeBron squared up. Nailed it.

 

[440]

LBJ-20pts
Shaq-20pts
Tawn-18pts
Andy-14pts
AP-13pts
DWest-13pts

Amazing point distribution.

Hats off to Thornton, dude was efficient as hell on a 37 point game.

It's funny how we give the guy mad props, now that the game has concluded and we ended up winning.

We'd all be saying, "Fuck you, Marcus!" or "Wake the hell up, you'll never do that again, Thornton!" had we of lost. (I'd be one of the guilty ones cursing the dude had we have blown this one).:chuckles:

Kudos to him, though. Hell of a game!


EDIT: What's up with Rookies thriving off of us? Sundiata, anyone?

 

[Benedict_Boozer]

Also we still gave up 50% shooting to NO overall - so there is still work to do getting our defense back up to par. Most of that damage was done in the 2nd for NO though.

 

[Typhoon]

You know why LeBron made that terrible 3? Cause it wasn't off the dribble. So much harder to shoot in rhythm off the dribble.

He also went up straight, then faded away. Instead of jumping backwards and fading away.


Hopefully he will realize this, but who am I kidding.

At least we finally got a win

BOS may lose to Knicks, looooooook out!!!
