    Dame was great, but we won because of Ed Davis.

    Well, that game took me more work than usual, but at the end my psychic powers predominated as usual.

    Lot of big shots tonight, and one of the biggest was Leonards 2 pt shot after Dudley hit the 3. That was a pressure shot that we had to have....... and he nailed it . It shows that he is mentally tougher than a lot of us give him credit for.

    Dame and Ed and Hendo all were fantastic.
    And of course CJ came through in the clutch as always.

    I think we learned some things. Scratched out a win against a team that was short handed that won't make the playoffs in the East. They've got some tough players and I thought they were tougher than the Blazers at the end of regulation. The last defensive stop and the tough rebounding by Davis, Meyers (yes Meyers) and Plumlee in OT are what I'll take away from this game. Gotta be tough and I think they proved it late. Yeah and Dame is a stud and CJ can hit big shots. Hendo played tough too, need Crabbe to start hitting 3s more consistently. Solid, tough win.

    We win Utah lost big win. But what see we have spurts on offense we go cold for 2 to 3 minutes and the other team gets back in the game. This why need to find a 3rd scorer.

    Tonight is a good win..those first home games after long road trips are trap games and guys who had not played great for the last few really stepped up! Ed Davis was a beast and Meyers played well.

    Henderson, Crabbe, and Leonard give us scoring options after Dame and CJ.

    This whole we need a third scorer is ridiculous. Scoring isn't our problem. We need to continue to improve our defense as a team. Championships will follow.
