What the hell?

Collison fricked this up? It's Collison's fault DWest and Peja combine to go 9-31? Maybe if they make a few shots, he ends up with some better numbers.

I'm sorry he is not playing PG like the way you think it is meant to be played. Whatever that means.

Who the hell should he have trusted with the shot? He was the best option tonight. Passing on a top option just because of the position he plays makes no sense.

Seriously? He had 35 fricking points! How about you blame the former all stars like David West for playing terrible. I guess it's just easier to blame Collison though. Yeah it was a mistake, but we wouldn't have been anywhere near the position we were in the game had he not taken over.

btw, protip: baskets have to fall for assists to be counted

he probably has more than 3 assists if Peja and West actually make some shots

I will agree that Collison needs to shave off some of these turnovers for sure, but that will come with experience and better understanding for the game.

ETA: I'm in shock someone is complaining about a rookie taking over an all stars role and putting up the numbers he has put up.

You STFU ,, We need him to play the PG like it meant to be played. Leading this team to Victory in the best possible way.. Selfish play is not tolerated.

May be then we will win more games .... 3 assists tonight by Collison? A few more at the end of the game would have made the difference.

Wow...just wow.

Who did you want him to give the ball to? West and his poor shooting performance tonight? Peja who missed several open looks from the perimeter? MoPete? Thornton likes to create for himself. Okafor maybe, but he didn't play down the stretch? Posey who was getting dominated by Dirk everywhere he looked?

Collison is just about the sole reason why we were in this game. Your definition of 'selfish player' is severely flawed especially when you consider the high percentage Collison shot for this evening.

I'm really hoping for a response from him.

What I am saying the last minute or so he made some dumb decisions which gave Mavs the big lead to win the game. Thornton was on the arch waiting for a pass to make it within 1 but Collison decided to keep it and turned the ball over. On the next play same thing. Thornton was a big part in bringing this team within 4 too. Making 8 out of 10 free throws and scoring 21 pts in 32 minute of playing.. I'm just saying it was selfish and he paid for it.

Maybe so...but he had taken over offensively for us all game...he makes a mistake that happens to be at the end of the game and the game is on his shoulders? Come on now. DC was the star of our team this game and that's apparent.
