In this game they shot poorly compared with Orlando, but the starters were all in double-figures and the team really had no problem doing what they wanted.
Brand got his points on a lousy team where he was the primary focus. In Phila. he won't be needed as much, but when we need him, we'll really need him. Although at this point, I'm thinking in a must-score situation, we should now set up Speights in the box instead.
Nothing to really say about this, other than that it was a nice bounce-back from the Orlando game. Orlando is one of the worst teams to measure yourself against, as their style is very unorthodox. I actually hate the style of ball they play, only made possible by the 3. I'm thinking the developers of that innovation would be disgusted with the way Van Gundy plays it. No fancy basketball dribbling or passing, just camp out outside the line and hork up an open shot.
