Like the hussle. The ball movement. Attacking the rim and the uptempo play. Defense could be better, but the team is aggressive. I like this team.

How you can blow that call is beyond me. It obviously did not take Davis 2.8 seconds to pick the ball up, turn around and shoot.

I like the focus on driving and moving the ball so far this season. Even Dwight is looking to pass more. Much better than our chuck, chuck, chuck offense from last season.

Its amazing how even beating bad teams can make you feel better about a season. I guess it helps to put things in perspective, right now we're better than two-thirds of the teams in the league. I like the way our guys seem to be approaching this season much better, I think this team can improve. Or at least, we can play closer to our potential than we did last year.

Pretty much everybody has done at least something right. Can't say its just Dwight right now, in fact right now Dwight looks like just another cog in the machine (albeit the most important cog, but still).

We get screwed either with instant replay (Billups BS "6 second shot" in Detroit) or with no instant replay (Bardon Davis shot back in 2002)... no win

they did not count the shot in 2,8 seconds, then gave them 3,3 seconds?

We have to keep pushing the ball, getting in transition... when in a half-court set we have to keep entry passing to Dwight and moving off the ball... or dribble penetrating/driving to the hoop... collapse their D... no more settling for spot up contested 3s ... take 3s in rhythm, but find other means to score... this should be our focus, and I'm liking that we're doing that... DO NOT STOP THIS!

That mullens is such a chucker, their whole offense is based on low percantage shots.

Why the hell did they not count the shot or at least recognized their mistake and gave another shot at an inbound?

I was surprised at the 2 assists. He's made some nice passes. I guess they must have been hockey assists.
