    Andre is tough, abusing Stan van Gundy like that.

    Well all I can say after watching the last half of that game is that Orlando is probably a 20 win team when D-Ho leaves to play for the Lakers in two years.

    That is similar to the Charlotte game, where we had 9 turnovers, but forced the Bobcats into 21 turnovers. Is this our new identity? Taking care of the ball ourselves, while pressuring the other team into TOs?

    Did they say the "Blazers Truck" got us that one as well as the extra point for LMA's 3-pointer earlier?

    So does that mean HCP actually helped us win this game?

    Yup. HCP and the crew share Player of the Game with Aldridge in my book.

    I see rebounding isn't high on Lamarcus's list anymore. ;)

    LA has pretty much just been a scorer lately. Sucks to see but at least we've been winning again.

    Today is March 7th. He averaged over 9 in February. We knew they would go down when Camby came back, Wallace will not help his numbers either.

    I love when we beat Orlando. Matty Goukas is the most annoying prick-announcer in the league. How he had a national gig I will never understand.

    Yeah, you can't add Wallace and not expect someone's numbers to suffer. Wallace and Camby had 20 boards tonight between them. That makes things a little harder for Aldridge to pad his stats :grin:

    What happen to Rudy? Only 16 mins? Numbers crunch or is he still sick?

    Wouldn't it have been a good idea to take Roy out at the end when Blazers went up by 7? I think we had some better defenders on the bench.

    And where is Aldridge when a big guy like Clark or Anderson is backing a guy like Roy into the post; how long does it take for him to get over there and at least make an attempt at a block?

    Anyway I'm still glad we won, Miller as usual did a good job running the team. Just seemed the coaches weren't adjusting very well ingame, either defensively or offensively. Sorry if I seem grumpy, just seemed like this game should have been easier.

    Interesting that they shot lights out from downtown, and still only ended up with 85 points. (And they beat us on the boards) The game plan seemed wrong, but it worked from a defensive standpoint.

    Cho said he's wants to add shooters this summer on the msp. Not good for Rudy. I MEAN does anyone else feel better when mills shoots 3s? I do.
