Thoughts on tonite's game



Well, this was really a disappointing game. It was our's to win and, once again, we let one slip away.

Paul really did not have it going tonite. Maybe it was the injury - I tend to think it was - but he has to realize that when his shot is not falling like that that it makes more sense not to keep gunning em up there like he is on fire. 26 shots and 20 points is awful. Another 5 turnover game as well. He didnt do a great job on Tmac when he was guarding him either.

I really like Chris Mihm. Despite playing a strong game and staying out of foul trouble, he couldnt remain on the floor thanks to OB. Blount played a decent game, but only had 1 more rebound than Mihm despite playing 18 more minutes. Walter played 10 more minutes than Mihm and had 3 less rebounds. Despite hitting the big three to send it to overtime, I really think Walter needs less time at the expense of Mihm. He should be in there as a 3 point specialist and when the matchup is favorable, but playing him 30+ every night is bad for the team and the eyes. Also, after Baker let his mates down, why give him significant minutes until he earns them back in practice? Baker played 17 minutes and had no rebounds. There is no way he should be out there, regardless of whether he can knock down a medium range shot.
