    I'm so wrapped up in talking about the Shaq deal that I completely spaced the fact that we had a game tonight. I will write a recap, though.

    Hopefully Sam I Am likes what he sees.

    I'll take Cassell even if he tried to kill Rondo tonight.

    Speaking of Rondo, this guy is playing like a man on a mission! And he's doing his mission very well.

    Does anyone know why Powe and Davis don't play more?

    I'm just wondering, because I'd love to know the secret.

    I think it was Tommy that said this and I completely agree with him on it. You like the guys who come off the bench of course like Big Baby, Posey, House etc etc but the guy that has gotten lost in all this was Leon Powe. Look back at the game and see how many important offensive rebounds he got and turned into points. The guy is relentless on the glass and I'm so glad that we got him. It's pretty stupid that he didn't get off the bench earlier in the season and it took Doc a while to realize Leon could play.

    I'm also very fascinated with any lineup where Leon and Big Baby are in there together when the other team decides to play small ball with us. All the rebounds those two combine to get is absolutely unreal.

    Your Rondo sig is sick. Who made that?

    I agree about Leon though. I loved him last season and I think he's going to stick around in the NBA for a while. I think he can become a Reggie Evans type of guy, with much better finishing ability, if he ever gets that kind of opportunity. He's an absolute tank, relentless on the boards as you said, and he's the type of rugged bruiser every team could use on their bench.

    I like BBD a lot, but Leon deserves to get the nod over him right now as far as minutes per game goes. I hope we can see more of them together, especially against Minnesota's small front court on Friday.

    The Powe Show is in effect!
