Game's at 8:00PM this Saturday. Ivan Carter says that it is possible that EJ may sit down Arenas and Jeffries again just to be on the safe side, so Hayes could very well have another opportunity to shine.

It's back!

How can JJ look so good in one game and so sh**** in another and Jamison doesn't even exist on the floor. I know this is a preseason game but this is pathetic, unaceptable, down by 31 to Memphis at the half. I know Arenas was out tonight but where is AD and what happened to this Storey guy, did they decided to cut him before he takes someonelses spot? Efforts like this makes me wounder about the upcoming season.

Oh and Hakim Warrick is going to be a beast for Memphis.

Warrick is a beast.

Sorry, I was away for a bit, so didn't get to check anything on this until now. Here's what I notice ...

* We will lose every single game this season, usually by double digits, in which Chucky Atkins is our leading scorer. Ditto for any game in which Jamison and Caron go a combined 4-25.

* I wonder why Haywood only played 16 minutes, when it looks like other starters (playing ineffecively) got time in the high 20s/low 30s. Granted, Haywood didn't exactly tear things up in his limited time, but still.

* One positive: totally stoked to see Taylor have a nice game (14/3/2/3). He was my favorite on the summer league team, and I really hope the team doesn't make him one of the preseason casualties.

* Outside of Taylor's overall play and Atkins' shooting, looked like a crapfest through and through. I guess you'll have one of these games every now and then. Key is to not take it too hard, especially when not only our best player is out, but another top five guy is out too.
