Coach Talk

Tonyk 77ers
You know what, Tonyk 77ers, we do appreciate the confidence. It's a bold move to roll out, not one, but TWO players with zero points (LeSean McCoy and Sammy Watkins), while still earning the win! All we ask is to please limit that flashy, show-off type of stuff to the early regular season. Can you imagine how silly we'd look if we let it happen in the playoffs?
Kablarski OVNOVI
Here's a list of scenarios where it's borderline excusable to go 0-for-2 in sports: A double-fault in tennis, a hitter's line in baseball, and a pair of Shaquille O'Neal free throws. That's basically it. Going 0-for-2 on field goal attempts this past week? Seems like Joey Slye might have just toe-bashed himself to the waiver wire after that sort of performance.
