Didn't have time to get a thread up tonight, so this will have to do.

great start but only 3 at half. seems like we've fumbled away the ball right under the basket a lot. Turner looking very good. Allen is on the bench so I'm not sure who besides Bynum is inactive. maybe someone is inactive but wearing sweats.

EDIT: spotted Solo in a suit behind the bench in the second half. mystery solved.

Bynum and Solo are inactive tonight.

I'm assuming Allen goes into street clothes when Bynum is active.

Turner not looking bad. Definitely more dynamic than Granger but Lance wasn't as productive with the 2nd unit with Turner on the floor. Still, it'd be nice to have the extra ballhandling.

If Bynum can add a little offense, this second unit would be very complete.

Bench play has been great. CJ Watson and Manhimi both playing great.

Awesome debut from Turner also.

Wouldn't mind seeing Allen get some minutes now seeing as we have a 25pt lead.

Bench looked much better with Turner out there; they seemed to play with a better pace.

Ian has been playing great since the Bynum signing.

Now we just need to see what Bynum can bring. I'm sure the pacers will begin to play him in the next couple games

I'm not sure it's as simple as that with Bynum. It maya be a lot longer than the next couple of games for him to play.

Anybody noticed how Mahinmi is playing twice as well now that Bynum is in the background?

Fairly sure he had a moan at Bird and got told that if he wants to keep his minutes he has to perform better, good on Ian for picking up the challenge!

both Ian and CJ seem to be responding well to the competition. I suppose GHill belongs in that group too. we've got 15 guys who all can play so everyone has to understand that the coaches have good options if anyone fails to bring their A game on a given night.

Yeah agreed. I did however just realise that we will see DG33 in a different shirt soon. Weird and sad.
