    Pretty much everything I had a complaint about in the first half we did well in the second.

    Through four games, one thing seems clear: When this team plays well, it plays very well. And when it stinks, it's horrible.

    I didn’t have high hopes after halftime because I’ve become so used to Stotts’ patented 3rd quarter meltdown

    Maybe over Adams sure. Big maybe. But no way he’s better than Valancunias…

    i think a lot of ppl would agree with that

    not turning the ball over 30 times really helps you win a game....lesson learned!

    Why do other announcers call him “Elerby” so much?

    He’s way better than Adams. He’s better than Valenciunas too but it’s closer.

    When Nurk is tuned in, he sets great screens, and this team's offense goes up five notches.

    We really have to find a way to get him to be mentally focused more often than he is.

    I agree on Adams (although Adams sets great screens). I don't really agree on Valanciunas:
