I like Lin taking a leadership role and getting them into a huddle

Word. The way are closing is encouraging, especially Clifford benching Al.

we brought in all these FAKE 3pt shooters this summer. Heat got a real 3pt shooter late in the summer for cheap.

I've always preferred Cody as a small ball center. He is lost on the perimeter.

Game over. This game was the same exact script we saw last season game after game. Not surprising.

We needed a shot of confidence too and to cut it down from 20 to 10 at the end is something to build on.

if he doesn't at least start making those 18-footers during his rookie contract, chances are he will be looked as such for the rest of his career.

do you all really think that Floyd Marryweather JR is retired from boxing or just waiting until he needs money to box again?

Walker got his 17 on horrific shooting. New season. Same story.

17 points. Kemba always scores 17 it seems.

Zeller is soaked. Don't think I've ever seen him sweat like that

The run this group made gives Clifford license to bench Al closing time against teams that attack the paint. It has implications for our season in my opinion. To get this down to 5 from 20 is huge.
