Respect for the other team I guess.

Yeah it's just a classy thing to do, "in theory." I say nail the three.

Terrific road victory! Now, let's hold service tomorrow at home and take the #8 spot!

What a game by Crash and Diaw! HAve we ever had 2 different Cats score 30 pts in the same game? If so, cannot have happened but a couple times.

No doubt.

Dell interviewed Gerald already.

Gerald said that we beat Toronto at home pretty bad, so we wanted to take them out of the game early so the crowd couldn't be a factor. Wanted to get to the basket and take advantage of what they'd give us.

I understood every word that he spoke!

Remember, I think it was his rookie year, when Gerald Green dunked in junk time in a blow out win against the Raps in TO?

Man, they lit the GB up over that one!

Yeah huge win, the potential to be a trap game, but the team showed a lot of heart tonight and showed we're for real in this playoff chase if there was any doubt, now onto the 8 tomorrow night...

Have we ever outscored an opponent in the paint by 40!? We did a great job defending bosh in the 2nd half who was the only player keeping us from blowing them out. We did great cutting down their transition points.

LB- Doesn't know how we did it but we had 62 points inside. When you have Vlade and Ray, DJ, Boris, Raja, there's a lot of guys that can make an outisde shot now so when we post defenses are reluctant to help.

Also tried to slow it down because the Raptors are good in transition at home.

When you get 30 points on 21 shots and Gerald got 30 points on 13 shots that's pretty efficient.

Was important to come out in the 3rd and we did.

We traded for vets from good programs that are used to winning that have been in a lot of big games . It changed our team because Emeka, DJ, Ray, Gerald don't have playoff experience. It's difficult because of so many in season moves. Training camp is a huge deal.

I read that Okafor missed the mourning shootaround yesterday because of the flu.

No, it was nonagression, Yao Ming Syndrome, and IDK.....I thought he played well on Monday.

Is a stomach virus the same as a flu? Because he had that also.

So usually if we shoot a T, DJ is option #1, Raja seems to be option #2 and Felts is option #3 - depending on who is on the court at the time.

Did anyone else notice last night when the Raps got a T that Crash shot the T - even though both Raja and Felts were on the court at the time?

I thought that was a pretty cool move by LB showing faith in and rewarding a guy who is shooting as well as Crash has been this season and of late.

Wonder if Crash is now option #3 - or maybe even #2 to shoot the T from now on?
