It's an issue with Dish Hopper apparently. They instructed me to power cycle the box and the signal comes back. Basically the SD signal has a lower threshold so low quality it will still show (enough loss on the HD signal and it just goes to black). Unplug, replug and both the HD and SD will usually broadcast once it comes back up. Super PITFA but two receivers and that's the best they can tell me.

Sounds good! Most important would be Cavs vs Hawks. Let's go Cavs!

He was seriously terrible tonight, probably works better with Hawes than Al. Maybe worrying about a stay in the doghouse.

He's got a thing for her, doesn't want it to get awkward.

Ahh, thanks for the info. I knew I had to be missing something. Oh well, back to Charlotte in the morning.

She's smart, hot, knows a lot about basketball, and is older. I'm not surprised that young guys like Kemba and Lin act a little weird around her.

Wow, Kyrie 5 of 23, ridiculous.

Well, at least they pulled out a win. The Hawks' got some tough games coming up.

But the Warriors....... :o

Tracking Players performances (their game contribution points/their averages):

Playing above their average:
Walker (39/28), Lin (19/17), Batum (29/25), Zeller (21/16)

Playing at their average:
Kaminsky (12/12), Jefferson (19/19)

Playing below their average:
Lamb (8/15), Wiliams (13/20), Lee (12/15)
Stability is a myth perpetuated by the agents called homeostasis and status quo....

Hmmm...should've won and we won, but didn't walk away from this one feeling good about our playoff readiness. How we come out against CLE should be a bit more telling about where we are.

I agree. I just think we'll be more tight in our defensive energy against the Cavs. On the offensive end, we're good. Just a lot of usual 3 point shots that fall didn't. So, it was a good night not for that to happen and hopefully, they'll fall again for guys like Marv, Lee, Batum, Frank.

Pretty clear the team was gameplanning/looking forward to Cleveland this week, IMO. How sad is it when your team can just show up and still easily beat the Sixers. So glad we are out of that hell back in 2011. Poor Sixers fans.

Well, the Sixers weren't good to start with and have some serious injury problems with their bigs......

The Cavs tho, here we go! No MKG this time, Marv and Nic, big responsibilities guarding LBJ.
