Didn't he say the same thing last time they played here? I don't think its that big of a deal, it's just dumb. Yeah I think we should play all of our games at home to, sure would be nice!

I seriously think this is becoming Iverson's team in a sense. And that's fantastic for everyone. Allows Hassan, Terrell and Garrett settle more into their previously anticipated roles.

He has definitely missed some wide open looks, those are the ones we need him to hit more. But he has also taken some bad shots to, and I think cutting down on those will help in the long run.BleedBlue87 wrote:JT is in such a funk with his shooting game. Must be frustrating for him.

I think they'll cool down in the second half. They didn't shoot a crazy PCT, but seemed to hit some pretty tough shots. They only shot 30% against Harvard, so I bet they come back down a bit in the second half.

The problem I've noticed is that it just isn't very consistent from game to game. Some games are whistles every time down the floor, and others are just fine. So you never seem to know what you're going to get.

I think once the swelling goes down its mostly just about pain tolerance on whether you can walk on it or not. It's going to feel unstable, but I don't think being able to walk on it is any real indication of the extent of the damage one way or the other.
