This was a pretty good game. I thought Amare looked good out there, especially in the first half. Shawn Marion was a beast and he did everything, as usual. Nash was Nash. But Marcus Banks and Leandro Barbosa were good together. Marcus was getting caught up in the mismatches defensively, but he played great on the break. Barbosa didn't shoot from the outside very well, but he was very effective as a slasher. Also, it was nice to see Diaw getting something going offensively after a poor game on Tuesday.For LA, Brand was awesome. He got 7 or 8 offensive rebounds and he was getting the ball in the basket. The Clippers refused to get him going early in the second half, and that hurt them. Kaman played well off the bench and really rebounded the ball well and played physical. I will also say it was very weird seeing Cassell and Kaman come off the bench.

You said he scored 15 of the bench and I was saying that yes he did come off the bench but he still logged more minutes than every starter.

Diaw Marion Bell and Nash all played more than him. Barbosa as well. KT I think would have but those cheap ass refs called fouls on him if he was within 30 feet of any potential fouls, so he was out of the game fast.

He has played well in the time he gets to play and it doesn't seem their is anything wrong so far.
Great game. Amare had some sick dunks out there. Marion and Amare blocking the ball 3 times was awesome. The worst call, though, was the traveling on Nash. He bounced the ball, dang it!!!

lol, I forgot to talk about this but who laughed out loud like I did at Nash's face when he was trying to overturn a out of bounds call? That was hilarious.This is the best vid I could find. It was funnier during the game http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UVvw2MS_ztg
