The stat line for most players was what one expects for every game: excellent ball control and efficient scoring from Payton; scoring from Fournier; dominant rebounding from Vučević; all-around play from Ibaka; excellent defense from Gordon on the wing; and balanced scripting from the starters and the bench.

(Orlando needs a new starting SF!)

Remember the worst team hardly ever wins the lottery. Silver may finally rig us one to get us a star for amway. Especially with a DeVos in the presidential cabinet :lol:

That was a great game. Thoroughly enjoyed it. This team really needed a win like that.

Fournier also played well and likely the reason we won.

Great win last night in my book. Just felt like the guys played with more aggression last night than they've played with in a few games. One of the first times I can say I have zero complaints with the energy or productivity of any player on the team. Nice game for Evan, Vooch struggled but he did work on the glass. Serge was solid. ELF played the way I want him to play. Jeff and Mario both played well of the bench as well. Was good to see Mario knock down the jumpers tonight. That's what we need from him when he's out there. The improv on the alley was nice too.

Always felt like it was important to go into the All-Star Break on a high note. Even if we lose to the Spurs, a win like this should boost team morale going into the break.

Ok but let's hope it only boosts it slightly. We don't need to go on any win streaks.

Finally got to watch the whole game. One of the few times this season that I thought Frank Vogel coached a nice game from start to finish so props to him on that one.

Thought Mario looked great out there for the minutes he was given (his minutes need to spike upward after the trade deadline). I was more impressed with him defensively. Played with great effort and enthusiasm on that end. His offense will come the more he gets an established role on this team.

The way Evan played tonight is how I wish he would play all of the time. Coming off screens off ball and attacking the rim or fake that and take the mid range jumper. Loved his game and he looked as healthy as he has been all year.

AG played solid D on the perimeter and I liked that he was getting rebounds more. Still would like to see him attack the rim with more ferocity.

Elfrid was great. Played focus and angry out there. Just needs to show that on a nightly basis.

If we win games going forward with our youth being the reason, then I can tolerate it which is what occurred in this game. Rob however better not lose sight that we are not a playoff team. Use this trade deadline to acquire assets and develop talent after the All-Star break. Rebuild the right way.
