Pat Burke for 3 ices the blowout, actually its a bit sad. Burke is so pathetic he is reduced to being the stupid weird guy who only gets into huge blowouts to hoist some 3s for entertainment.
PS: More chances for Jalen Rose please!

Pathetic? The fans WANT him out there...they love him, how is that sad? Rose fed him at the end because he knew the fans were dying for it.

Same with Bo Outlaw. Bo didn't see much playing time but was always a big fan favorite -- and one of mine too.

The thing I took from this game is that Jumaine Jones SUCKSSSSS , they actually set him up for several shots, and he bricked all of them. He also turned it over at least once.

OH NO! He turned it over once! Quick, cut him!
Give me a break man.

Good to see James Jones hitting shots...he could be huge for us in the playoffs if he's playing well.

Huge.

Huge.

That's the thing with James Jones. He brings so much to the table in his defense, shot-blocking, etc. The thing that is suffering is his shot, and from what I hear, he hits everything in practice. DAntoni and the bunch know that they are much further ahead getting JJ in a groove than they are trying to trade for another player.

Jumaine appears to be really tight when he comes in late, it looks like it takes several trips up the court for him to move normal, I think he played his best when he is playing earlier in the game and doesn't sit so long. my back hurts to watch him try to run.

The thing I took from this game is that you need to lighten up and enjoy the win.

It's so incredibly easy to make things looks worse (or better) than they really are.

Last night JJ came in late in the game and got 5 minutes:

"...they actually set him up for SEVERAL shots, and he bricked all of them..."
They set him up for three shots--two of them quick 3's.

"...He also turned it over AT LEAST once..."
He turned it over just once.

When Jumaine had his 13-point game (57% shooting) a few games back, everyone was ready to promote him to 8th man, no question, over Jr.

When bench players come in and can produce, they stay in. When they're cold, they don't. That's why JJ got 5 minutes last night and Banks got 25.
