Ya know, I've always been a huge Blake fan, but I've also realized that he's just an average starter or a good backup. But if he keeps playing aggresive like he did tonight, he fits what we need next to Roy a lot better than I gave him credit for.

Great game for everyone tonight, and I really liked the Blake/Roy/Webster/Jones/LA lineup.

Wow, pretty dead in here tonight.. Good showing by Webster tonight. Now lets not get the knee-jerk reactions and say Outlaw is overrated and Webster is the future, but hopefully he can build on this and we can see what hes got for the rest of the season. Also a great game by Aldridge. Scored from the post, from the baseline, from the top of the key, and just about any other way you could think of. Roy had an uncharacteristic 5 TO's but 10 assists to counter it

Its nice to see what a aggressive PG looks like.
Hopefully Pritchard can get the team one in the
offseason. It sure helps our scoring, huh!! We
need a PG that can break down defenses tho,
Blake was putting pressure on by just shooting,
altho a few times he did get in & kick it out.. .

I've been a big fan of Blake for a long time. The biggest complaint that I have is that he doesn't show much ability to break defenses down off the dribble. I love his perimeter shooting when he's on, but that doesn't create a lot of shots for others. I'd really like a PG who can hit open jumpers, but who can also attack the rim, when help defenders step up to stop him, he can dump the ball to Oden for a MONSTER JAM!

It was great to see our starters do so much damage tonight. I just checked the standings and the crazy thing about it is we our 9 games better than the Bucks yet they are only 3 games out of a PO spot, while our deficit is 7 games.

It was nice to see LA play such a major role especially considering his recent slump. Aside from that, the rest of the starters had very nice games as well. I would've liked to see more from Outlaw though. This wasn't the best scenario that could've taken place but a win is a win.

That was a good game for both Aldridge and Webster. Aldridge had one of his better games this season, and Webster shows he's improved somewhat in being able to play more flexibally. It sucks that when that happened, Outlaw took a hit though.

a fairly entertaining game despite luis grillo

All the starters played real well. LMA worked well in the paint; joel with 15 rebounds and 3 blocks; martell was aggressive and kept engaged; blake shot down an ex-team. Roy's 5 turnovers detracted a bit from his double-double.

Unfortunately, the bench didn't do much except for Jones. it's unfortunate because the starters played heavy minutes to start a road trip. Brandon played 43 and on the 1st night of a back-to-back, that isn't good.

real nice to see a road win though

well, this is the way the offense has to work game after game.

and of course the bench has to produce more.
