Want to see the same intensity and desire we saw a few days ago in the second half in Portland. Mo needs to play like he did in the 2nd for an entire game. Should be a W.

The win in Portland was great. Now if we need to beat Portland at home. We have a tough remaining schedule and to lose this game would make it difficult to make the playoffs. Everyone needs to play great and team basketball.

And once again Mo dribbles around and then takes (and misses) the first shot of the game.

I want a real PG.

you have to wonder how come this team didn't play like this all year, with all the good cutting and back doors and sharing\moving the ball.

I sure wish Favors would stay out of foul trouble by not challenging anyone attacking the rim like Al and Paul.

/green

Al just dunked off a pass from Mo on a fast break.

Who are these guys?

They just showed highlights from Hornacek's game from 94 when he made 8 threes. Unsaid was that the three point line was about 18" closer above the break that year than it is today.

So not only was Foye shooting most of his threes from a few feet behind the line, the line itself was further away than it was for Hornacek.

I love watching Mo miss a wide open Favors under the basket so Al can shoot a contested 20-footer instead.

Al might have a shot at MVP if he could go up against Leonard and Hickson every night.

we should have put them away by halftime, or at least close to it.

Too close for comfort. Need more team basketball like 1st quarter.
