Just got home some thoughts..
1. Everyone can blame Norm all they want, we lost this game because our guys cant hit WIDE open shots. Paris missed 3 layups/dunks. DJ and Mase missed 5/6 combined from inside 12 feet. Burell missed 3 layups.
2. Hardy does nothing to get open. I could guard him. They tried a few times to get him open, but he is very very SLOW coming off screens. He looked like he was in slowmotion.
3. We had a great crowd- Best I have seen in a very long time. Crowd was into early. Not much to cheer about later on.
4. Played Excellent defense early. 2nd half not so much.
5. Either Brownlee is a bad kid (which I dont think) or they ruined him. He played a few minutes in 1st half. Took an awful shot missed by about 3 feet. He looked like he was sulking on the bench. We could have used him today.
6. dele, omari, and rob thomas all played for less then 2 minutes at different times- there was no reason to put them in and no reason to take them out.
