Bowen got away with quite a bit of grabbing and bumping too. But like you say, I don't care if they call it or let it go, just call it the same both ways. Call the pushoffs and call the grabs or just let them go at it. And I thought for the most part the refs did a pretty good job of it last night of letting them just do that.Quote:
He got away with quite a few in the 4th quarter. He was pushing off big time. I just hope that if bowen fouls they call it and vice versa.
Great defense but man that dude stinks it up on offense.

You can look at all the film you want, that will prepare you yes, but until you lace em up, get out there and try and bust through the screens, thats when youll finally find out how to do it.
The defense on hamilton in the second half was outstanding.
I think the only adjustments that need to be made would be the defense on Billups.
Way too many open shots for Billups.
I don't mind if he gets shots. Just from watching the mia series he looks like he's inconsistent as is the entire det team except rip, but bowen has and will shut him down. He seems to make bad decisions and take bad shots. I'll let him take all the shots he wants, he won't be so hot next game.Quote:

I was still pissed at the fact that he missed open shots and even when he upfaked and tried to get a closer look he still missed. I just wish he was a little more consistent on offense but loved the D.Quote:

Both are capable of putting up numbers occasionally, but they both suck on offense.
