But that was mostly guarding guys other than TP because he was playing the 3 defensively last night.<BR/><BR/>At any rate, it's not a problem when you can't stop Tony Parker. It's a problem when a team is down enough pieces that stopping Parker is your only goal, and you fail to hinder him at all. Parker would have a tough time replicating that dominance in a pick-up game.Bronnthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11706422637764110117noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8912756.post-19643869362457867932009-03-26T11:46:00.000-04:002009-03-26T11:46:00.000-04:00Highlight of the night, by far.

When Flip was pulled for his second foul, my buddy and I at the game looked at each other in disbelief.<BR/><BR/>Surely you wouldn't be subbing your hottest offensively player out for Mo Evans (playing well, but when Mario West is on the floor, well, he's always in need of being pulled).<BR/><BR/>Just a horribly coached game by Woodson on just about every level.<BR/><BR/>The second half offense was an embarassment as well.<BR/>Letting Joe and Flip dribbled for 20 seconds and heaving up a prayer in traffic is not an offensive strategy, its an abdication of your job as coach.<BR/> <BR/>You'd think in the last year as teams run a second player at Joe as he begins to back his player down the Hawks would, you know, look to exploit the 5 on 4 situation. Cut to the basket, let Joe know there's 4 other people on the floor, and one of them is completely uncovered.<BR/><BR/>Bad loss and it doesn't look like it'll be getting any better next few games.jrauchhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03064708627368143691noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8912756.post-12224202413618561712009-03-26T11:36:00.000-04:002009-03-26T11:36:00.000-04:00I failed to integrate this organically into the re...I failed to integrate this organically into the recap but I actually laughed out loud when Woodson took Mo Evans out of the game 4-and-a-half minutes into the third quarter.
