    Nurk is doing a good job fighting Whiteside for the boards. I think all of Whiteside's offensive boards are flukes where an airball lands in his lap or something.

    Best stat is Nurk has zero fouls. He is a 4th quarter guy, and we will need him playing more aggressively down the stretch

    He basically played the first half of he first quarter, then the first half of the second quarter, then was benched the entire rest of the game. And he got no touches on offense. He showed great defensive potential.

    This year he's been getting even less minutes (until recently) and still pretty much getting no touches. While also getting 9 DNP's.

    I don't really think 14 mpg is development.

    He has a horrible track record with developing players.

    Dame doesn't count, for many reasons.

    Miami game plan:

    Step 1: run as fast as you can until you either go out of bounds or draw a foul.

    Step 2: Shoot a three.

    When all else fails, see step two.

    Note: Amazing how well this works against us.

    Only way we are seeing Mike Rice is if Sly has a poker party and you bring a bottle of bourbon.

    This is the only way I can deal with both games going on right now. Go big and stay home! (Home theater)

    That was a very nice possession by Vonleh. Love the patience and skill.

    Two straight post ups resulting in scores by two different players?!

    Vonleh seems to have turned a corner in some small way.
