Cope starting! Good to finally see him get some time. Not sure if it is evaluative or commemorative in nature though...

Good to have our two currently worst-playing starters get a chance to put some work in against an Orlando team that might...not...try.

Agreed, let's hope it gives Roy especially some much needed confidence. I don't even know where Dedmon has come from, but if he doesn't bag 15 points against him I will be rather upset on his behalf.

^^Well, he's not going to play that many minutes, so I'd be happy with any points after two goose eggs last three games.

Well, glad to see we'll be going out of the regular season on a high note. Hibbert rebounded decently, and the bench continued to get confidence. Here's to a great postseason.

Also, I'll have the playoff game thread up tomorrow, our game is on Saturday.

Chicago just lost to Charlotte. That locks them into 4th seed and Toronto into 3rd.

Also, Nets are going to lose and Wiz are going to win, meaning Nets will get the 6th seed so they'll be on the opposite side of the east, which is a good thing.

Great last game. The bench was great and everyone looked really happy. That was a very memorable RS for us but I'm glad that it's over. It looks like we're starting to get it together. So, here's to a great playoffs run!

PS: I will apologize once again for not posting in the game thread during the game. Not posting in RealGM during the game proved to be a good luck charm in the OKC game and I'm going to keep doing it until we lose. I know that it sounds stupid but a fan has to do what a fan has to do :wink:

What the hell did Rasual eat yesterday morning? He is nearly my age and dunks in a fluent motion from catching a long pass and then goes for a great baseline jam in the next quarter. Whatever it is, I need it.

Btw- I have decided to only eat corn based snacks during the Play-offs. I am going to assume it gives me the same sort of luck as Nuntius is getting by not posting during the game ;)
