I missed the Chandler ejection. What happened?

Chandler slapped Joel's broken wrist. Joel pushed Chandler. Chandler elbowed Joel in the neck. Chandler was ejected with a Flagrant 2. Joel made both FTs and we got the ball.
 
I think we need a big 4th quarter from Lamarcus to pull this out.

We aren't going to win this with Rudy and Travis jumpers.

I don't see what the point is of taking Oden out.

Chris Paul's been trying to get Oden in deeper foul trouble all night by driving into him when they switch. Bringing Joel in prevents foul #5 with 30 seconds to go in the 3rd.
 
How can the point guard not know what the shot clock is at?
 
Man... LMA doesn't have it tonight and we're forcing it to him.
 
Damn. We keep on throwing it away.
 
Terrible move by Nate to bring out Sergio and Bayless to start the 4th.

Have we even had a good look yet? T/O's, and desperation shots . . .

don't understand that at all.
 
Yay. Twin towers. Hope something good comes out of it.
 
I think this is really exposing McMillain as a poor coach. With Roy gone, where is our offense? What is his plan? Force it into Aldridge. That didn't work. Now he's trying to force it into Oden. That's not working very well. What's next? Force it to Outlaw?

huh? Getting the ball to your best scorers is bad strategy?
 
Sergio and Bayless were defending better than Rudy and Blake by far.

Yeah...nice jumper, but it doesn't really matter when you gave away the ball inside of four minutes right before then.

That is why its disappointing, cause as much as he brings to the court he often gives up.

What do you expect Nate to do when his #1 option isn't even playing and his #2 option is struggling?

Aldridge needed to step up, but he didn't. Not Nate's fault.
