Going into the road trip, I felt that it could have been a good tool to helping the team bond. There were some distractions at home for a few of the guys (i.e. legal issues, newborn baby, pending divorce, etc.). Being on the road could change their focus a little bit from their personal dealings to the team-oriented issues. I'm very satisfied with our showing so far, but it would be really nice to finish it off with another win.

I think this team will be a lot more competitive than Houston. We have to try and match their energy.

Hopefully win this one and then go on a 10 game winning streak after that ;)

End up with a 21-5 record after the next 11 games, now that would be fun

knowing what the schedule has us, it is not out of question.

plus I think we are due to beat the spurs, so 13 in a row after tonight also is possible leading up to the show down against the worriers.

You're right, just looked. After tonight, it is:
vs Minnesota
vs Orlando
vs New Orleans
vs Phoenix
@ Indiana
@ Washington
@ Milwaukee
vs Detroit
vs Indiana
@ Denver (10 games)
vs Milwaukee
@ San Antonio
@ Atlanta
vs Golden State

There are a lot of very winnable games over the next 14 games. Time to pad that record a little bit. @ San Antonio obviously being the hardest game followed by Golden State at home, but after that it is going on the road against Washington and then on the road vs Denver could be challenging.

Should be a fun stretch.

Yeah, I hope we don't take this stretch softly or for granted. When I see a streak of winnable games like this I remind myself that for each stretch of easy games there is generally a stretch of tough games so we have to make it count.

At the End of the 1st Quarter

Aside from our rebounding, which is really a little nitpicky, I like how both our offense and defense looked. Redick not quite sharp with his shooting but has 3 assists so far. Blake has 5 rebounds and DeAndre 7 boards. We only had 1 turnover and it was by Chris Paul.
