Ok blowing a 26 point lead is pretty pathetic...but oh well, a win is a win, JR saved us in the 4th. Ice baby ice :lol:

Whew. Even though they blew that lead, it was great to see them hold on for the win against a very good team.

We needed it, the schedule is about to get pretty tough.

In the fourth quarter, this CP3 banking in a three pointer kept flashing in my head... thank God my instinct is wrong today!

Pretty nice, NO is a veeeery good team...

Now, we have to beat LA., sometime in this season to get "deep playoff team" status!

After Indiana we have Miami, Detroit, Dallas, Phoenix, and Orlando coming in. Then @Houston. Sounds kinda tough to me.

only one of those teams has a better record than us (orlando)

there's no reason we shouldn't take care of miami & indiana at home.
we have dallas's number and we matchup well with them. already 2 wins, one of them at dallas.
you know everyone will be fired up to beat detroit
i'm confident we're a better team than phoenix. last time on the second of a b2b at phoenix we were right there the entire game....and melo played like garbage.
orlando will be on the second of a b2b after playing at the lakers the night before.
houston...mcgrady's been looking worse and worse. will he magically heal?

and probably the most important thing is that we'll finally get some rest and practice time - that's big for our bigs, and melo's elbows. hasn't happened over the past month because of the scheduling. now we get basically 3 weeks at home and a game very other day instead of 4 games in 5 nights every week.

the only real jinx is karl or the team making excuses - these are very winnable games

Haha. Sounds like we'll go 7-0. Book it.

Now that's a jinx.

I agree that we CAN win all these games, but the way we came out against OKC alone leads me to believe otherwise.
