    That was a sick play call to end the half.

    The last few games saying AAA wasn't pulling his weight. He does a lot for this team.

    What I loved about Afflalo was his making defense a priority when he started in Wes' place. He's the X factor now with Wes out

    See, though, it'd be a win win. Afflalo is more than capable of filling Wes' role (as much as he can, the intangibles Wes possesses is a different story and unique to him). So, if we had Wes, it'd be even better, but we still have an amazing "back up" in a "usual starter" Afflalo.

    I just want to see Wes on the sidelines coaching his ass off in a suit all through the playoffs.

    I think Afflalo is better at finishing a fast break than Wes

    Really? Those are good numbers for a player who has played a total of 90 games in his career...
    I only asked cause it seems like whenever he gets on the court recently he's getting buckets... and shooting a high %. Seemed like he never misses..
    I do remember him missing a three this game.

    They ain't getting a high one, so it's like being stuck in mediocrity. Plus, whoever they get, unless it's a 3, isnt going to get a whole lot of playing time on the team.

    So if we win and OKC loses, we only need 2more wins to seal 4th place?
