great game. way to go BJax!! glad to see him pour it in. glad most of our players had decent-to-good games. that is key if we want to keep our streak, and improve. now, the wizards, whom we should beat, but anything's possible. gg.
Jackson came out on the floor and played like he'd been with the team for weeks. Very, very impressive. We have our experienced point guard for the playoffs, people. Outstanding move again by Morey!
i was wondering the same thing, i cant wait till we get a blow out win so we could see him on the floor
Pleasant surprise was Bobby Jackson tonight. I felt the trade was questionable as far as helping us this season, but if Jackson can keep this up, then I'll gladly admit I was an idiot. I underestimated how much impact BJ's familiarity with Adelman would have. Additionally, the team thrives on a good 3 point shooting, so subtracting Bonzi and adding Jackson to the mix will definitely help improve our accuracy. This team's kicking on all cylinders right now. Still need to work on getting Yao the ball in better positions I'd say. T-mac is playing like the Mac of old. It's been so long since I've seen T-mac play this way... Every game I expect him to revert back to his old ways. His play is predicated on finally being healthy, but given his fragility, I cringe nearly every time he gets some contact driving into the lane. Let's hope his luck stays and he remains injury free. Scola seemed to hesitate a little bit when open for some foul-line range jumpers. He should take those.
now if we can get barry, then we don't have to play head all the time (b/c he's such a mismatch defensively with his height). and he's a great shooter too. oh my, the possibilities. but one game at a time is our new slogan. don't get too greedy.
Don't forget - in the old days fast teams with lots of transition buckets used to destroy this team. That has changed this year. It ain't always pretty but we are no longer being man handled and spanked by fast teams. RA is finding a way to get er done!
The crazy part about this is.... we've won 12 straight games, but we're not even the hottest team in the NBA right now. The Lakers are in Full-throttle mega-destroyer mode. wow.
I have always liked BJ as a player. He is a very intense competitor who has experience playing off the bench in a playoff series. I am glad we got him for the playoff run.
