i thought nocioni has been doing ok- he's the only other frontcourt player on the team that can hit/willing to take a perimeter shot outside of Gooden. by default he has to play anyway w/gooden & deng out. he hit some big shots last nite- too bad they couldn't get any stops late 4th qtr and too bad Hughes happened. talk about forced shots lol. thought they were going to steal a 'w'
a few things here...
what is up w/Mike MIller? maybe his newfound passive style of playing is his way of quietly asking for a trade. it wasn't just this game- it's been the whole season, before and after this ankle injury. i think only in 1 game did i actually see MIller aggressive. and that was against the Spurs when Parker went bonkers too. i think they wolves should trade him already. youth is being served and foye's play has turned miller into a guy who just swings the ball around the perimeter
as usual i can't stand Noah. how can you be considered an "energy" player when you get tired after a few minutes??!! get rid of this guy
speaking of trades- a few weeks back, Paxson was on record saying he's been trying to make a trade/shake up the team. tons of speculation out there but so far nothing. i think when hinrich comes back a trade will finally happen
when gooden comes back- i hope thomas keeps his minutes.. at Gray's expense. and am i the only one who has forgotten that deng is out lol? as a fan, i'm glad i don't have to wonder if deng will bring his 'A' game anymore
