He's questioning Gentry playing AD away from the goal and letting him take all these jump shots, because it takes away what he does best, BLOCK SHOTS!! huh, what? Sorry, but you cant make this shite up.

He also says that we are running out a bunch of D-league guys. Maybe im a homer but there were no players the played last night that are D-league players.

How come Nola Media is so terrible? fml

I honestly did not even know that Eric Asher was still on the air. Its probably been 5 years since I've even heard someone mention him.

I agree with Asher. Would've loved to see AD block a couple of Ish Smith's shots last night on offense.

I'm a homer then too.

I don't think people understand how AD actually scores. He not an ISO monster that creates his own shot. 71.5% of his makes were assisted last year. It's not as simple as saying "get AD the ball in the post", he's a finisher not a post scorer, and you need someone to start something for AD to be able to finish.

I think you can argue that Ish would fit that generalization since he's never really caught on anywhere. But it's not like that was the plan, we were literally playing our 4th and 5th string PGs last night. Not just 4th and 5th guards, but 4th and 5th PGs.

Anyone who looks at last night and thinks that's how the rest of the season will look is a moron whose opinion should be mocked.

Only begun taking talk radio serious here in the last 3 years are so. Have a loooong way to go.

Eric Asher has an opinion-- we talking 1 game of a long season with a bunch backup guys. AD did lead the league in blocks did he not? He is more a NOLA watchdog than anything. I know you know that ... bad day at work today bro?

Are there guys we played last night Dleaguers.. not one bit.
