We were winning by 12 with like, 3 or 4 minutes left. Al comes in, Favors comes out...4 minutes later, hello overtime! Coincidence? I think not.

I didn't see the end, but, I'm guessing as soon as Jefferson came in the other teams guards were able to attack the rim with impunity. It's not a coincidence in my book, I think we've seen this pattern many times this season where as soon as Jefferson comes back in the other team goes on a run.

I don't really mind that much. I'd prefer we lose as many as possible myself. So, if we want to close games with team tank, I'm ok with that.
 
I'm not ok with tanking...I think that's dumb. I just want to play the young guys and try to win with them. If we win with them, that's awesome. If we lose with them, at least they're getting experience. However them getting mediocre playing time on a mediocre team isn't helping anybody. Hopefully this game is a sign of how the rest of the season will go...I guess we'll find out.

Aj made no good defensive plays. Not hating just saying what I saw. Feel free to disagree. He is reaching Boozer status IMO

You weren't paying attention. Al took a great charge in the first half, had a couple of blocks.

But most improtant: At the end of regulation, when Ridnour was wide open on the corner and shot a three that would have won the game, Al closed in on him and forced him into an air ball.

Actually, the Tpups shot a bunch of threes. Can't blame Al for that....or can you?

And Burkes and Gordon and Millsap and Harris were still in there...just sayin

Clearly you weren't paying attention, Al didn't have any blocks tonight.
