    I'm ecstatic about the win, but LaMarcus played over 46 minutes tonight. And he's played over 40 minutes the last 3 games. Yikes, I hope his body can hold up.

    Which is it? Erratic exuberance, or cautious cynicism? Pick one, dammit! :D

    How about Wesley Matthews tonight: 19 points, 9 assists, 2 turnovers.

    That's Batum's fifth 20-point game in January - after only two in October, November and December combined. The kid is really stepping up!

    Mike Barrett* said he's bought a house and a car and is happy... I'm glad to hear it.

    *MM, you can stop reading now.

    Rudy seems to really need close friends and family around to keep him happy. He seems to have gotten pretty tight with both Patty and Batum, and his Mom was at the game the other night (anyone know if she's just visiting, or has she moved here?).

    Yeah and Mike also quoted Rudy as saying "I never want to leave!".

    Embellish much?

    Oh yeah, I'm sure... but still, it's nice to hear he's feeling more upbeat... it's like if Tonya Harding never got caught after crowbarring Nancy Kerrigan...

    And how about that future all-star Brandon Rush? ZERO points in 24 minutes. 1 REB, 1 AST, 1 STL and -14 for the game. The guy can really fill up the stat sheet, can't he? Man, the Blazers are gonna regret trading that guy.

    The Pacers did a good job of defending tonight, especially in the interior. They pretty much shut down Aldridge in the post with Foster, Hansbrough, and Hibbert. It's nice that LaMarcus has a counter to that- in the 4th quarter, he went back to his old friend, the jumper. That and free throws accounted for a lot of his points tonight.

    Any word on 'Dre? Just got home from the RG and couldn't listen to the 5th Quarter because the kiddos were sleeping in the car after the game.
