Great win! Love this team win or lose they play hard. This team plays together with 7 guys with double figures. They know their own individual strengths and they help each other for the team. I am rooting for this team to make the playoffs. They have to earn it and hopefully get it thru shear determination.

And, a 3 game winning streak to boot!!!

Miami played a great game against the Warriors tonight, but lost. Currently sitting at 3 games behind them and the Pistons. Hoping for few losses from a few EC teams tomorrow night.

Orlando is now a 1 1/2 game back of Detroit and Miami, and the Heat's schedule to the ASW is brutal.

You are correct. My apologies for the misinformation. I miscalculated because I often forget that a win is calculated as +0.5 and a loss is calculated as -0.5. Thanks for clearing this up.

Briscoe was +4 in the game and Grant was -7. No real doubt about the backup PG minutes going forward.

All the players-trust-Briscoe stories are a dagger to Grant, as well.

Watched the highlights and they were just playing good solid team ball. Making the extra passes to find open guys. Evan tossing that oop to Isaac was nice typically he'd try to force a layup in that situation.

Only a few months later, Briscoe is driving the lane with precision. Still a wrecking ball willing to throw his 215-pound frame around, he is more under control. Briscoe has become the passer everyone could have dreamed of, developing quicker as a distributor as teammates get used to him and he gets used to teammates and where they line up and like the ball.

Now, some time later, Briscoe has carved out a role on the Magic where he is the team’s back-up point guard by veteran starter D.J. Augustin. He had his best game as an NBA player on Saturday, scoring nine points, handing out seven assists and making his first four shots, including a 3-pointer. That growth has him occasionally contemplating how far he’s come.
