LB needs to chew some butts! We played strong and good the entire 1st half right up to the last couple minutes. Then we pissed it away and wind up down at the half. Just a crappy way to end a half which was hard fought up to that point.

I couldn't agree more. As soon as you over commit, you are screwed and it's very hard to recover on D - especially if you are playing against a smart team who quickly recognizes the mismatch and get the ball to the player with the advantage to abuse the situation.........which happens to us a lot (or it forces us to pick up cheap fouls)

With our group I agree, but you can't discount how well LB taught the Pistons how to do that. Not so much now (tho they're still good), but in recent seasons past they made switching off picks look like an art form.

If LB sat Crash the other night for lack of effort then EO50 best be careful tonight!!

I hate it when EO50 just throws the ball at the hoop, usually off the 10-12ft hook shot, with great force and furious anger.

Wish he wold dunk with the same aggression that he shows when he shoots (see: jackhammers) his hook.

WHOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! FINALLY I'M PUMPED!

Oh man we all needed that, what a great finish... I can't believe we came back and took it to 'em... Felton with the CLUTCH 4th and the game winner!

Raymond was the man in the 4th! Great rally by the Cats! WE were down 9 in the 4th, and then hold them to only 10 pts for the entire qtr! Raymond takes over the game with 3 minutes to go and leads this team to a great hard fought road victory! Great game!

Wow!! tuned in just in time for the end. We've beaten 2 of the 4 best teams in the east recently.

was that our first buzzer beater ever?

thats the first time we've really seen how good of a defensive unit our starting 5 can be.

I'm down. Maybe my All time favorite. First saw it when I was 10 or 11 and it'll never lose it's magic. In fact, it gets better with each viewing. I'm seriously down for discussing it (we'll meet in the ot thread?). Don't be a *draws square with fingers*
