Cedi doing a lot of things the right way. Earned some credit.

 

[Cavatt]

These aren't very hard fouls...

 

[greenlaker]

How can you not play Zizic?

 

[inliner311]

That fourth foul on Sexton was at a bad time. Drew might have rolled with him for a couple more minutes, he was playing well in this quarter. Probably going to put him in later in the 4th quarter now.

 

[Cavatt]

Zizic isn't that bad. He made that guy shoot a layup from 4 feet away. Altering shots and getting contests . His reactions are a bit slow he can improve that.

 

[inliner311]

Delly with like 4 assists in a row.

 

[thunder_down_under]

Delly just does not know when he or his team is beat...worst possible PG for a tanking team

 

[daddywags]

Nice to see Kevin Love jump off the bench to slap hands with the guys coming off the court at the end of the 3rd quarter. Looking forward to getting him back on the court. Hopefully soon.

He sets a helluva screen.

Zizic needs to learn that when he gets the ball in the post he should go right up with it or throw it back out. He's way too easy to strip. Too bad big Z isn't around to teach him, but he would do well to watch some tape of the guy.

 

[Ruken]

Anyone else get a sense that Nance does not like playing with Sexton, like at all?

 

[SmudgeHog]

holy crap, I missed the 3rd quarter. Was there any defense at all?

Yes but Nance has been better tonight about passing to Sexton.

Yeah keeping the ball high and just going he has a much better chance. When TT was the most blocked player of all time that was his problem too. Guys are too fast to pound it unless you are really good at protect ting the ball with your body.

Yep it frustrates me.
Dude gets visibly annoyed with the rookies mistakes or misses but doesn't blink an eye at JC and Hood chucking.

And I like Larry btw, but he needs to channel his emotions sometimes.
