What's Caron's career high in points? 39?

This is the second game in a row where Butler has simply decided enough is enough, it's time to end this thing.

Butler's gonna go off for 50 before too long. Probably this season.

I haven't been watching the game, but why hasn't Blatche played more? In 7 minutes, he has 3 boards, 3 blocks and 2 points. Seems like he was good tonight.

the guys not named butler have played like crap (and so has the CSN crew, man it's painful to listen to), but theyve put up a fight at the end. songaila in particular was horrendous and ruffin was absolutely schooling (no doubt some psychological motivation there) him. i would have liked to see EJ bring Pecherov in during the Ruffin spell (to draw the ruffin away from the basket on d).

based on looking at EJ, i kind of think that he was letting deshawn, ad, songaila, and jamison play in order to send a message. we've gotten complacent and a bit of a big head cause of the boston/dallas wins. we needed to be taught a lesson that no game in the nba is a gimme. i hope that lesson isnt lost if we pull this out.

on the plus side, the will shown at the end is exactly what we've been missing in years past. if this manifestation of will is permanent then i am very optimistic for the future because it (and chemistry which we already have) are the two main intangibles of great teams.
Until Grunfeld goes there is no rebuild.

Great play for Mo Williams out of the timeout.

Wood takes a horrible shot and that's probably game! We refuse to cover Mo.

its like last season - they just let the other team's best player score all over them. This time it's Mo Williams.

How dumb can this team be to go to Brendan with a 1 pt lead.

Hindsight is 20/20 but Caron on the ISO didn't generate a good shot and the 24 second violation came from that.

We deserve to lose. We deserve the criticism. We shouldn't even be playing OT, but whatever. This team seriously needs a kick in the balls.

WTF is wrong with you guys. Haywood had the ball in the post with about 4 seconds on the clock, he took the exact same shot he made last quarter. What else was he supposed to do? The shot missed, but it wasn't a bad play.

Wizards keep going to the ISO and it rarely works.

Ruffin got away iwith a blatant pushoff.

What a bunch of chokers. I called this perfectly. This just makes the loss even more frustrating. Up by 4 in OT and we choked. Haywood is the GOAT of the game.
