Gonna be exciting to see Muscala get extended playing time, for me personally.

Let's see if we can beat the Heat despite being short handed, a 9 game lead in the conference lets you do something like this.

That was ugly. 17-12 lead, and we're shooting 35%. Hassan Whiteside 10 first quarter rebounds.

John Jenkins in the game and playing well!

I've been down on him as a player in the past but I'm really happy to see him playing and producing on a personal level. Between the injuries and the lack of playing time and the uncertainty of his career going forward, it's been a rough road.

Jenkins has looked pretty bad so far tonight. He needs to quit hesitating when he is open. You are a shooter, so SHOOT the damn ball.

Muscala looking like prime Dikembe with 4 blocks already. They didn't give him credit for one of them.

There you go Jenkins. He's letting it loose now with no hesitation.

No collapse. Way too many turn overs though.

True they just out turned the hawks.

Better game then the Orlando game. The Hawks seemed in control for most of the game, the biggest problem was free throw shooting down the stretch. Good that Teague and Horford got a rest and Hawks still got the win.

Good to have a Jenkins and Moose sighting. Both played good with the minutes they were given.

Good win against a playoff team despite being shorthanded. With the Raps' loss to the Knicks, the Conference lead is now 10 games.

I'm telling yall, Mike Muscala is gonna be a factor at some point in the playoffs.

Dream of 50/50/90 slipping away...

It was nice to see Jenkins,Muscala and Brand but I think they proved they're benched for a reason. Coach Bud knows who he plays and why he plays them.

But man, I had to keep thinking- it is possible Rodman and Moses pregnated Lisa Leslie, she had a son and named him Hassan???

I thought Muscala played well. Jenkins started off sluggish and looked better once he settled in. Brand looked great and he should be big for us in the playoffs. I'm hoping he gets an uptick in minutes come playoff time.

Jenkins hit some shots but at first he passed up on so many of them! Don't tell me you didn't scream SHOOT IT several times during the game. EB and Muscala weren't awful but their man had 24(!!!) rebounds. NOT GOOD.

I get you. You wish for more EB or MM minutes beacuse Pero... I don't know. He looks like he really sucks for a long time.

But I'm saying- I am noone. I can't question anything coach Bud does. And if HE believes Pero is the best back up center for this team I can only agree with him.
