    A road win over a playoff team that we'll be battling for HCA with is even better.

    Parsons: 21 mins, 0-8, 2 turns.

    Bullet = dodged.

    That's an Evan Turner esque line.

    Because of his first game back from injury that means we dodged a bullet?

    First off, great win!

    Secondly, I hate to complain about an already great broadcast, but I counted at least 4-5 times throughout the game where the broadcast ran a replay or promotion that cut into actual game action (the majority of this was at the foul line where it sucks to miss points being put on the board). I tune in to watch the action on the court and it's frustrating to miss plays.

    As bad we are playing and still get a win that great. But Stotts really need take a look at that 2nd unit.

    Easy to dodge a bullet when there isn't one in the chamber to begin with.

    I watched Lamarcus play the worst game I've ever seen him play last night at work...Aminu looked like Magic Johnson compared to his handles and slop....couple times he didn't even run down court

    On a somewhat related note, I thought this was Calabro and Hurd's best game so far. Maybe I'm just getting used to them, but the flow seems better and Hurd is making some points without the hyper over talking of the first few games. I enjoyed their call today.

    Yeah for the same reason I think we need to be patient with our players who are either new (ET) or coming off an injury, (Meyers) you have to give Parson some time.

    Also, I like Michael Holton much better this year. He's cut WAY down on the corny jokes and sticks to talking about basketball - which he's good at. Not sure if someone told him to rein it in, or if he just saw the writing on the wall that the organization wants a more professional sounding broadcast.
