With no Vucevic, Millsap should have an easier time than he did when we last played the Magic.

We're really taking advantage of the fact that they don't have Vucevic tonight, we're really taking advantage down low, and Jeff Teague is getting to the rim with ease.

That Oladipo kid...is nice. That young man has a future in the Association.

How the Hell Cleveland passed on him in the draft is beyond me.

Wheels coming off.

Lou Will is not playing well. Someone get him out of there.

For that matter, Lou has not been playing well all season. I'd be favor of cutting some of his minutes for Schroeder - if they're both gonna suck at least we can get Dennis some seasoning.

What the hell happened to Teague's floater? He's reverted a lot after Horford went down.

I was just about to say its time to cut Lou's minutes so Schroeder can be on the court with Mack/Teague more.

What have I walked in on? We had a 19 point lead in the 3rd?

I thought it might have been an accident that Korver was on Nelson but it looks as if it was a good decision. Nice job defending the quicker Nelson.

We had a 3 pt lead, so it was hit one from outside the arc or die.

Yeah, but they ran 11 seconds off the clock before taking it. there were 3 guys CLEARLY open while Jameer was dribbling around like a moron. They had time for a shot, chance at a offensive rebound just in case and another shot.

I thought Korver played it pretty well, fighting through the screen at the left elbow, pressuring Nelson to his right. Korver killed a lot of clock that way. Sure, he bit on the fake but he recovered well enough to have a hand in Nelson's face when he threw up that prayer of a 3. It was a combination of Korver playing it the right way and Nelson not being that good.

You're probably right about the 3 open players but I didn't see them. Plus, Nelson surely thought he could get open against Korver.

I turned it on and saw we were up big.
Go to do some things on the computer and we are down by 3.

We really did play well after being down in that little stretch. Other than Teague's weird 3 attempt, Millsap really played well with getting fouls.

It seemed like Harris got like 4 fouls in the last little bit.

Diesel likes to call Carroll DMCthealltimegreat, but I might need to call him "Cut Creator" or Cut Master Cool D"... for his cuts to the basket. 8-)
