And Who Was Guarding Him | 8:59 a.m. Nov. 8, 2009
Right--Your supposedly best defensive guard "Brewer"! Both players are within an inch of each other and this just shows how this management is so wrong. There is not one player on this team that can guard a statue! Now believe that. Name me one? A.K. is nothing more than weak side help, Milsap can't guard without fouling because of lack of quickness, Boozer never has or will defend, Memo is too slow, D-Will doesn't want to give the effort, Price you say? No smarts! Who just who? Sorry there is no one, including the two big stiffs riding the bench. Sickening pure sickening, and you call these whimps pro players? Get a life.

Found the game both dis-heartening and encouraging. I have always critisized Boozer's defense. But, his defense is improving rapidly. However, by observing and with a little historical (not histerical) I suddenly woke up to the fact that Williams cannot "guard" a quick guard. Even the less experienced work him over. Coach needs to rethink his defense!!

Maynor backs up point in 1st and 2nd quarters and Price 3rd and 4th

The real problem is the coach. Sloan has to go then start playing Fes and Koufus.
