  • Shaq did run the floor well but how long will that last?

  • I thought Shaq was pretty good last night, especially in the second half. Even with the loss.
    Did anyone notice D'antoni didn't bring Nash back in until halfway through the 4th? It's not like it was a blowout...I don't know what on earth he was thinking waiting so long. Oh well...he's coach, he knows best I suppose.
  • I think they are still trying to figure out that offense and seeing who plays well with who. Last night was an experiment...

  • I know that D'Antoni rests him at the end of the third and beginning of the fourth, but he usually brings him in at about the 8 or 9 minute mark, especially when it's a close game against a tough team. You rarely see Nash come in at the 6 minute mark during a game like that. Last nights game was really important and we really did need the win. I'm not so sure it was the optimum time to "experiment". But I guess they know what they're doing.
