[scorecard]

Terrible game.  Hope that was just a holiday hangover, because I'm still optimistic about the team.  Every time we drew near, we'd have a terrible play, usually of the careless variety (Randle getting picked from behind because he wasn't looking up, not boxing out on a missed free throw, careless passing, an inordinate number of traveling violations, too many big men trying to draw charges instead of just challenging shots).  Just never put a run together.  But it should never have come to that.  We also shot quite poorly from three (4-19). Pickens should get more time if Rosco Allen isn't shooting it well, because we need another outside threat.  Cannot explain why Dawkins hardly ever played Cartwright today, if only just to give Randle a breather.
