    Stro committed two offensive fouls in a row and let his man scored a couple of baskets with ease on him. JVG yanked him out of the game immediately and did not play him any more.

    I hope you're joking about a preseason game.

    Darko again blocked 6 shots tonight in 20 min against Dirk. Dude has some serious hop and might become another AK47.

    Did anyone else notice the score after the last commercial break? The score was: Rox 86 -- Hornets 85. Please someone tell me who scored after that for the Hornets. I say no one score for them other than P.J. Brown at the buzzer. Head made the layup. If I missed something please let me know. If not we won this game. :confused:

    Please tell the punk crew to come out. Because they have just successfully punk a whole team.

    Final Score
    Rox 88
    Hornets 87

    You're on my "turf" now...

    Curtis Borchardt, Linton Johnson, Ben Handlogten, Sean Marks, Theron Smith, Mark Madsen, Ha Seung-Jin, possibly Mateen Cleaves and about a dozen players making 2 to 4 times Bowens' 900k salary.

    Perhaps your YMCA friends are missing a golden opportunity to become millionaires. Then again, it's likely not a single one of them knows the base concepts of defensive rotations embedded in Gundy-ball. :p

    This was a good game. We played well.

    However much preseason games DON'T mean, they mean the world to a team like the Hornets. It's like giving a mercy lay to a fat girl.

    First full game I've seen. Rafer Alston looks like a slightly slower version of Mike James that just drives a little better but shoots a little worse. He jacks up as many as Mike did for lot more $$$.

    Still problems getting Yao the ball. This is freaking ridiculous.

    I hope that Swift has more to offer then what I saw tonight.

    Jeez, all this hype and they play so crappy right before the real season.

    The difference is Rafer, when T-Mac and Yao are in the game, looks for them more than his own shot versus James looking for his own shot even with Yao and T-Mac in.

    If preseason is supposed to be an audition for a coach to figure out the best 5 players to put out on the floor, I think JVG has to start considering benching DW. He is arguably the 4th best SG in the preseason, Anderson, Barry and Head have outplayed him.

    I think JVG needs to start someone else and bring in DW as a backup until his game comes around.
