Second night of a back to back. That last night loss has me depressed.

TJ Leaf has finally put together a solid string of games. Bojan playing out of his mind! KAT killed us early and got a lot of lenient calls on Thad through the 2nd half, but, the depth of this team came through and look to hold on through our foul trouble tonight.
Bojan really playing well.

The fact that we won this despite KAT's performance is incredible.
Bojan and Leaf both had the biggest games of their careers. I'm really hoping Leaf keeps it up.

Important number to keep in mind this offseason: $18.375m. That’s the highest salary in the 1st year of a new deal for Bojan we can give him using his early bird rights, without dipping into our other free agent cap space (potentially) and maintaining his smaller cap hold of $13.65m!

Bojan had better games in his career, not many but a few for sure. Playing for Nets he had 44pts and what about last year game 3 against LbJ..definately better than tońight having in mind importance of it.

It was a poorly called game where KAT got every call of contact. It also did not go the other way in any form.
Also, this is why we signed, and kept, KOQ al year despite the lack of real everyday need for him. Best 3rd center in the league, easy.

I can see Leaf earning center minutes.

I agree. He really might be more of a mobile/up tempo 5 than anything else.
