wow - great win! That probably feels like a Game 7 to these guys.

I know it's not over yet, but this would be a good win for the team. Even in the middle of a ping pong ball chase, getting a tough come-from-behind win can lift the spirits and fend off the forces of fatalistic loserdom.

And um, please don't trade Caron.



Yeah, the Caron for a ham sandwich trades should quiet down now. I was happy for the guys, but let's not make a habit of this, at least this season, okay.

That was fun. Reminiscent of the Hibachi days.

Tanking or not, Caron needed a game like that. If he wasn't off in the first half he could have gone for 50+ tonight easily. Nice to see him have a game like this one. Props to NY for his first half performance and AJ for his overall game.

None of the "big men" showed up tonight. Can't wait for Blatche to get back.

I normally wouldn't want to win, but today, with that performance I'm okay with it. It's games like these that I miss so much.

Damn this game just reminded me of the good days when winning actually felt good. I've rewinded the DAGGER like 5 times already.

Butler got lucky. His lack of lateral acceleration and meager wingspan tell me so.

I'm happy for Caron and fisher.

I'm through hating on Butler (at least for another month after that game.).
Bye bye Beal.

Oh, and 42 minutes for NY and 36 for Critt. All in all, not a horrible night despite the win, eh :lol:

I confess to having posted several times in the past about Granger abusing Butler when they meet. (I know others refuted my posts).

This game, I was impressed that Caron just outgunned him and really put a great jab step (if that's what it was) that created space. Nothing Granger could do but watch the dagger.

Two threes before the game winner? That was great for Caron and the Wizards.
Bye bye Beal.
