    Here is another.

    Any real reason why the game was as close as it was?

    So just another game with a team of a lack of concentration and focus.

    I've never seen a team take more games for granted. They just about lost another due to this.

    I like the kid, I really do - if only he could figure it out this offseason.

    Ray McCallum played like we hoped CJ McCollum would. 23/8/4/3, zero t/o. That around-the-back, fake pass, finish with left hand was smooth, & that last shot after Wright's 3 ALMOST went in. Props to Kings for finding him out of Detroit Mercy U in the 2nd round. Didn't look like a Will Barton 20/10 out of nowhere fluke (bunch of lobs/dunks) either. He hit 3s, midrange jumpers, finished at the rim in half court & in transition. He made all his FTs, and had the confidence to take the potential game winner. Anyone else impressed with this kid last night?

    Meyers' offensive talent and potential is beyond question. But I don't know how you develop defensive reactions and instincts in off season training. And that's the problem.

    Hilarious, had to watch it like three times.

    Yup he can score and does, but always gives up points on the other end so its a wash. My vision for Meyers' success is the 4-5 year plan. We're on year two.

    You obviously don't watch the NBA then son. Go take a look at the last 2 months of Heat/Pacer games.

    Didn't watch last night's game but followed in online. This team is so maddeningly inconsistant. The "W" is nice, but one wonders if they have a switch to throw to get mentally prepared to face Houston in Game One in Houston.

    I saw Houston play last night. If Beverly and Howard aren't 100% by the playoffs, they're in serious trouble. They make our defense look like Daly's Bad Boys.

    They don't need to Mags, they've got zebras.

    Trained zebras are a formidable opponent.
