    in the end, our problem was that we couldn't beat playoff teams on the road; it was a problem all season and when we failed to show up for Game 1, we killed our chances of winning the series; at least we didn't get swept.

    Remember when Nate McMillan was "sleepless" because he was thinking of so many ways he could use Rudy after watching him in the Olympics?

    Rudy just stands at the 3pt line.

    Houston and Yao deserve this. They fought real hard to exorcise their demons and they got it done. Good luck against the Lakers.

    Pull these guys and let the bench play a bit, Nate.

    Had you trusted them in the series we'd be 2nd round by now.

    I honestly think they have no chance against the Lakers.

    Well not exactly the way I envisioned the last game of the year going down, but props to LMA and Brandon for remembering to show up ... as for everybody else, not the best showing I've ever seen.

    Cap space. If we waive Blake, Outlaw, Ruffin, and Frye, we get 16 million in cap space.
