i'm excited about the team right now.

rafer has been very impressive. i think he can carry some of the playmaking when tracy returns so he can do what he should do in adelman's offense - score. tracy SHOULD play more off the ball when rafer comes back and not handle it as much, which should be a good thing.

yao played great yesterday. but i just wish he would minimize his fallaways to like 1-2 a game. those shots rarely go in. but other than that, he played great last night. like i said, if he uses that hook shots more, he'd be unstoppable. he'll dominate curry tonight with ease.

scola is also impressive. HE NEEDS TO PLAY 30 MPG.

EVERYONE who is playing is contributing. i like it.

Our streak has to start today. Everyone is playing very well. Battier has been good on the defensive end, but I just hope he can start being more consistent on the offensive end like he has in the past. The worst thing that can happen is that we won't score points, but its highly unlikely due to the mediocre defense played by the Knicks. They can score, but that teams a mess, they don't have any balance.

We can't take this lightly (I mean it's almost laughable considering we are under .500 as well). The Knicks are extremely talented and could win a game at any time. Saying that this is a game we have to win being at home, we really can't afford to lose too many more games this next couple months, especially against teams you should beat. Keep in mind we've already lost to the 76ers, Heat, Grizzlies, Kings, and a few others, WE HAVE TO COME OUT WITH INTENSITY AND ENERGY!

yao is officially a jumpshooter when we iso him.

let's start moving him around. yao's gonna go on his brickfest if he keeps this up. pick and roll or set picks for him so he can get better position.

if zeke had a clue he'd be posting randolf against hayes and waiting for the score or the double team.
