    Yeah but isn't the improvement in Yao his conditioning and the addition of Swift taking pressure off him. He looks in good shape and Swift isn't here so the big improvement can't be seen yet.

    stats at the half:

    WESLEY - 0/4, 4 ast, 3fouls in the first period.

    RAFER - 5 ast, 2 stl, 5 pts, 1 to.

    TRACY - 15 points :D

    JHO - 6 pts, 5 rebs

    YAO - 13 pts, 3 reb, 3 foul

    DA - 9 points, hast missed, 3 TO's

    MOOCH - 2 dumb TO's, hit a nice jumper, offense looked bad with him.

    DEKE - 2 reb, not very effective.

    BAXTER - 4pt, 4 reb, 6 minutes. looks quick and very strong.

    thats all who played. the 6ers look pretty good. very fast in transition.

    Only saw a few minutes of the 1st half. Looks like Alston knows how to feed Yao down low.

    Jho has become Mr. Everything. he drew a charge, made a great pass to yao, hit a 20ft J, and grabbed some boards.

    welcome back Jho!


    our PF spot might be one of our strongest this year.

    The offense is running really smooth with Rafer running the point, Mooch is terrible as usual.

    Baxter is doing a great job down low, grabbed a couple of offensive boards and put it right back up.

    I think one great way to sum up the game so far...WE ARE TOO UN-SELFISH!!

    im just going to comment on our new additions:

    ALSTON...WOW..im so glad we got this guy..he's got 7+ assist..only 3rd quarter...he also hit a 3.and a couple of layups..

    DA...Not bad..better then i expected..but he is still clumsy with the ball..i can see he will be valuable off the bench later on..

    also...worth mentioning...Juwan Ho..looks fantastic...overall we are in good shape..for our first preseason games..just some miscommunication that led to a lot of turnovers...

    first look at luther head was a good one. he made a few very nice passes one of them led to an ast.

    he made a few nice drives to the basket as well. he is very quick.
