Q's Key's To The Game:
1) Get Kaman going again. We need Kaman to play well against Andrew in order to come out victors.
2) Supporting cast needs to step up and help. If Kaman gets a 22/22 game with 5 blocks and we lose, you know everyone else wasn't doing anything.
[color=Navy]3) Ross being a roadblock on Redd. Can't let him go off on us.
What a disappointing loss ... we were definitely feeling the loss of Cassell since no one on our team was capable of stepping up in the second half to prevent the Bucks from catching up.
God damn the Clippers missed like ****ing 20 shots in a row in the 4th
****
this team really sucks
NOBODY CAN SCORE
we have turned into one of the worst teams in the league
and finally
I HATE that EVERYONE IS ALWAYS CLUTCH AGAINST THE CLIPPERS
we havent turned into one of the worst teams in the league, weve been one of the worst teams of the league, as soon as brand had an injury. Its impossible for a below average team to lose its only all star caliber player, make no significant additions, and be respectable. If it wasnt for kaman playing like a superstar, wed even be worse off.
Everyone, lets think of the bright side...each loss is that much higher chance at a better pick in the draft. If you think that way, then youll be happy when we win just because its a win, but when we lose its not so bad.
Games like this show why we need an offensive minded PG. Dunleavvy seemed to realize tha tin the 4th, and had dickau in there, who did respectably, but hes no cassell. Bucks double teaming kaman didnt result in turnovers, but really cut down his shots..he had to pass it out a lot of the time, and did a darn decent job of it too.
Lethargic basketball played tonight. Wasnt surprised that we blew the 15 point lead, as bad as the clipeprs were playing, the bucks were even playing worse for a lot of the first part.
And what is with lawler and smith's love affair with Yi? Hes not that great, and everyone knows hes not 20 years old. Hes a decent player, but they were talking about him like he was dirk, yet more athletic. lol. That being said, i thought there was an outside shot of us moving up in the draft to get him. I would have liked him.

In other words, lalwer and smith were takling about him like he not only should have been the number 1 pick, but could go down as one of the great players. "best workout ive ever seen in 10 years" things like that they were saying. "more athletic version of dirk" etc. etc.
NO way do i think he has that kind of ceiling, nor will he be one of the greats. However, if i had the bucks pick, at 6 or whatever it was, yeah id have gotten him if others werent available. Hes top 10 material, just not a superstar like lalwer and smith were seemingly saying
