Nice to fight back. Up 19 against an obviously dirty team. Hope Powell is alright.

...it still bogles my mind that Aaron Doornekamp is on this team when they could just have Kyle Wiltjer who can do anything Doornekamp does but better.

I like that Wiggins isnt forcing the issue out there. He is impacting the game without having the need to put up shots.

Wow... Up by 20, playing great and the whiners still looking for something to cry about. Doornekamp and Wiltjer couldn't be more different types of players.

2 Bad offensive sequences there. Guy's looking to stop the bleeding themselves as opposed to playing the offense they've played all game.

Nice play by KO "shorting" on the PnR and finding AB for the lob

Wiggins lacks that shiftiness...

It's weird. At times I wanna rip Leo's head off because of how redundant and preachy he is, then a second later he makes a really good, insightful point. He can never be lukewarm! Always too cold or too hot!

Also, I never thought I'd say this, but Doornekamp is a decent player. His game has really grown on me over the years. He's like a poorest man's kirilenko lol
