    Simons could be a great scorer, just as Lillard thought. But for 2 years, he's been held back, deferring to Little Scooter's "development." The faster we get rid of Scooter, the faster Simons will himself develop.

    Ant has a large repertoire in his bag when finishing games. Very difficult to stop unless you double him early on.

    I don't understand why Malone didn't double Simons. That was their most effective defense against us tonight and what got them back for the most part.

    Honestly, this might not be the take we deserve but the take we need right now.

    Chauncey: "OK, we're going to use Ant as a decoy. DeAndre, you get the ball and get it to Merle. We're going to run the picket fence. He's going to take the last shot."

    Chauncey: "What? What's the matter with you guys?"

    Ant: "I'll make it."

    One of the first games with lights out shooting we won in awhile.

    Spurs and Mavs we shot great but somehow lost.

    Thought we'd end up losing this, not sure how we even lost that lead. Exciting win though!
