    Landry gets killed on one end, no foul. Doesn't foul Dirk, get's called for a foul. :confused: :mad:

    Too many turnovers.

    Forced passes (Brooks, Ariza, Battier).

    Over passing (Battier, Lowry).

    Gotta cut that stuff out going forward.

    It won't be all that long before C-Bud replaces Ariza in the starting lineup. This can't continue.

    Ran the pick and roll, got the defenders to switch. Instead of swinging it to the left and hitting Anderson in the low block, Brooks waits and takes a contested shoot. Yeah it went in, but swing the damn ball!

    Unfortunately it probably won't be this season.
    Adelman has given Ariza a long leash.

    Lowry is really beginning to knock down those 3's. that was the only weakness in his game.

    On the bright side, Lowry seems to be developing a 3 point shot

    Man, what an exciting game! Hopefully we can keep this up...especially in the dreaded (gulp) third quarter.

    They're killing us in pick and roll but we can't seem to get past anyone in ours.

    Great hustle. Too bad Brooks missed the first layup ... but got the second whilst staying back.

    I think most all of us feel that way.

    When Brooks is in alone, we have to live with his decision-making.

    When Lowry is in with Brooks, Brooks needs to play the off guard. It plays to both Lowry's and Brooks' strengths.

    I don't know why Adelman doesn't demand that Brooks let Lowry play PG when they're both in.
