Thanks, mkw, for this comprehensive game thread, and for the dozens of others you have prepared for us this season. I really appreciate that, as I'm sure others here do. You have worked so hard and put so much time into this, and it has made a big positive difference to our board.
I was intrigued with the invitation to submit questions to Dave Dunholm, but noticed on the form you fill out that you first have to release espn to use all the information you give them whatever way they want. I'm not all that keen on any possibility of having my full name published or broadcast, much less on giving them a release on my e-mail address, so I chose not to submit my question.
Good luck to the Clippers tonight. I'm taping the game for morning viewing. Both teams are so depleted and exhausted that it's hard to know what to look forward to. (I can't even feel a guilty pleasure of looking forward to those dramatic and gasp-producing CP to TC alley oops.) But as always, I hope the Clippers who are still standing will play with heart and grit, and play as a team instead of as a group of individuals.
Go Clippers!

It seems like we win on nights that I have to go to bed early, I hope that trend continues. I want us to get at least 20 wins this season. I think we have 8 games left so we should be able to win 2-6.

Thank you for the kind words. It is much appreciated :D

I know you what you mean about having your government name out there. I don't care for that myself. I usually just use my first name, initials or a fake name altogether.

Just so everybody knows, for a few minutes I considered making an April Fools thread titled Dunleavy Fired, Hughes to be interim coach.

It would have been too cruel though. :P
