A.I. just gave up 25 pts. and 9 ass. to Duhon, seems EVERYBODY gets big numbers on him now. The 4 seed [Boston,Cleveland,Orlando] is really up for grabs in the east this year. If we only could get our sh@#*@# t together.

jjg…It’s not an excuse, just a possible explanation. I didn’t say he was dog tired or wiped out, as I doubt he was. It’s just that when I see jumpers coming up a bit short, the first thing I think of is the legs. (That’s where the jumper comes from, IMO.) Also, it doesn’t take much of a dip in energy to affect the shot, again IMO. It happens to the best of them (although admittedly less often), so I can understand it. As long as it only happens here and there, I don’t see it as anything out of the ordinary or overly alarming.

Thad’s lowest offensive output games: Utah, Charlotte, Boston, Detroit, NJ. A decline in his performance from strong start has surely been in evidence. As for the excuse of tired legs resulting from playing 2 consecutive days - that’s a laugh; he’s 20 years old!

I love it man, ed staff. goes out and signs all these dudes and through 18 games cheeks barely plays any of them besideds brand. That is until Eddy made the road trip and had a little heart to heart with MO. Sammy sucks, we need to trade him asap, if thats possible.

finally stinkadala has started to finish in the lane like a real man instead the thief who robbed the sixers of 80 million and finished like a prissy lady in traffic.

Last week I mentioned starting Marshall over Sam and moving EB to center to space out the floor and help with offense. Marshall seems to be solid for 12-15 minutes a game. The announcers and coach mentioned his age at 35. I do believe Jason Kidd starts plays 30-35 minutes a game and is 36.

Its not about age its who is a better fit to start. You can see teams defending entirely different while he is in the game. Can’t pack the paint and leave a shoter by himself. Start em.

Guys, do you think Marshall!s good showing may allow Rush to see the light of day ? He got a little run last night and Willie [who!s defense and decision making is improved] is slowly dropping in f.g. perc.. Mo is loyal to a fault sometimes but what Marshall!s shooting has added can!t be ignored.

Not only did Marshall come back at the 1:40 mark he promptly hit a three 5 seconds later.

I agree he did take good shots, and it was much more of an off game, but is it just me, or did all of the easy scoring oppurtunities being disapeared for him. I probably over-reacted to this game a bit. But just looking at the boxscore at halftime, I realized Iguodala was the only one in double digit scoring. Usually it’s Thad getting scoring oppurtunities early on and it seems as though that has disapeared. Well lets hope it was just tired legs because we don’t play till wednsday so it should give us a good break.

Im currently watching NBA gametime on NBATV, and Rick Kamla just informed me that Devin Harris had the flu! How does he drop 27 on us with the flu?

Sorry to repeat a point you made about Thad, Dannie. I was unaware that you had posted yours while I was typing mine.
