DJ, on the other hand, has looked good. Honestly, I'm quite happy.

I feel for Kobe, he's no longer the best player in the league!

DJ was good, but I wouldn't go that far.

Amazing how we can play so well against teams like Cleveland and LA, and then stink against teams we should beat. Oh well, this was a very important game to win. Gets us back in the win column. Great to see DJ play well again.

Although is stats might not really show it, I thought that Theo was huge for us tonight. He altered SO many shots and really gave the Lakers bigs something to think about when they worked the ball inside.

He's a HUGE reason the Lakers shot 36% from the floor IMO.

I have always liked Theo's game since he was in Philly. He's like Dikembe with that Defense, also he's a humble guy, I hope Tyrus learns alot from him. Theo is a class act!

Only got to watch the 4th but great to see Hendo getting minutes this kid is good! Our future really isn't that bad with Augustin, T2, GW, Hendo and UPS.

Played awesome D and didn't look totally out of control or lost on the offensive end.

a good example of when stats dont really tell the whole story. pussyfoot ends up with 6pts and 4boards in 15 mins. however, his impact on the game was much greater than his stat contribution. i thought he was fantastic last night. he had a least 3 tip-outs in that first few minutes that led to extra possessions. as steve martin mentioned several times, chandler must have set a dozen monster picks last night that freed our guards to get in the lane. he was giving dj acres of space on the other end of those picks which gave dj the time he needed to slice apart their defense. he presence in the lane was something that has been sorely missing. and as far as i am concerned, there are few in the league better at boxing out than chandler.

did anyone even have a clue that pussyfoot would be back? well, its just one game and like with dj, i'll hold my excitement in check until he does it over a long stretch. however, it was really good to see him out there last night.

and how about hendo? boy looked good. gotta start playing him over graham at some point.

theo has been a blessing. light years better than diop.

so happy to see dj with 2 good games in a row. i should rip on him more often.

maybe we should have signed stackhouse. ever since the bucks signed him they have been on fire.

Damn I love when we play that tough on defense, we forced so many turnovers. Great great win, would be awesome if they could keep playing at (or at least close to) this level for the remainder of the season.
Still a bit disappointed by Wallace's play, we could be a really really good team if he played more like he did before the all-star break.
Gotta love DJ being that active and shooting that well tonight.

Damn, even Chandler looked quite good out there, what a win !

I don't think it is a coincidence that Crash's rebounding numbers have dipped since TC has been out.
