Would be epic if we could pull out one tonight and be 14-13 going into the Heat game with G, MP and VC.

Spurs won't take us lightly. They probably watched the Suns game last night, and won't let that happen to them. Hill is usually bad at back to backs, so it's gonna be hard to figure out who will step it up for the Suns.

Hopefully we'll see the Dragon breathing fire on the Spurs.

Dunno. I just followed the Yahoo Sports depth chart. Looks like Pop runs a 9 man rotation with Manu starting SG, but also playing backup SF.

I believe George Hill won't be available for this game. Splitter doesn't get consistent playing time. Sometimes he plays, sometime he doesn't. Bonner and Dice usually mans the second unit along with Manu as a backup SF. Quinn replaced Hill as the backup PG in our last game.

Are the new guys (Gortat, Pietrus, VC) going to play in this game? I'm looking forward to seeing how they fit.

Dudley tweeted that tonight we'd see Carter suit up. Don't know the validity.

Wednesday's game is going to be awesome though. I would love to beat the Heat. I know guys need time to "gel", but I think this trade makes our team instantly better.

Yeah I'll take Coro over Dudley. I'm looking forward to Thursday's game, seeing our new guys debut against Miami. I'll be at the game!

I like your guys chances without Vince.

What Vince normally pulls off against good teams like SA Spurs:

2 for 7 shooting

a wince to get himself out of pressure

and getting blocked by Brian Cook (In this case, Matt Bonner)

Wow. Have a Blast!

By the way, I don't know where I've been... but it feels like I looked up yesterday and the Spurs were 23-3. Where did that come from? Normally they don't do anything productive until the 2nd half of the season, but this year.... wow.

I'll be there as well...Four rows back! I'm going to bottle GOATat's sweat and wear it around my neck. Not really.

a word about steve nash, and a reason why he is one of the greatest suns ever:
"I know a lot of people are telling me to demand a trade. If I demand one, does that mean I get to pick my team? No. It's not that simple. ... I signed here to play here ..."
