I like it when we get even scoring, especially whne there are like 5 or 6 guys in double digits, but yeah these Bobcat are hard to shake and they do presetnt problems for us for whatever reason. Whether its matchup issues or they just play harder against us I dont know. All I know is I dont like it. If we give this one away I will be pretty P.O.ed

Game wouldn't have been close if Doc didn't keep Posey at the 4 spot for like 7 minutes in the 4th quarter..We had such great energy with Perk, Rondo, Baby, etc. and he should've realized that Posey at the 4 makes us a completely dependent offense on long range jumpshots..We went dead on offense at that point and i was disappointed to see Doc stick with it for so long and let them come back..especially since Perk was playing so well(maybe tired?)...Anywho, solid win with nice performances from the young guys..Maybe sending a message that we don't' need no veterans???

Yeah I agree. This was a game we should have stuck with our starters. Perk came in for the last 5 minutes and we went with the starting group and sealed it though. Good balanced scoring. Perk and Rondo were the mvps this game, but it was a good team effort. I can understand wanting to have posey out there. He's been money of late and did hit a big shot during that stretch. The problem was noone else was doing anything.
