most impressive win since Yao has been injured

rockmanslim · Mar 29, 2008

The win against one of our chief rivals in the race for a top seed, New Orleans. Sure, West was out, but Paul and the rest of their team wasn't. It was in their building and they fought hard. Paul was incredible. We beat them anyway. I've got this game on my DVR at home and I've watched it four times. This was when I knew we were doing something special.

Huh? The game David West missed was in Houston on our home floor.

Definitely New Orleans even if it's winning by only 1 point! Winning against them gives me the greatest satisfaction out of all the other teams!

I say the Lakers game was the biggest win without Yao since it basically shut up whatever skeptics were left over even after the previous 21 games. Sure, Gasol wasn't there, but a lot of people expected the Lakers to mow us over. That win cemented our place as a playoff contender in most of the nation's eyes.

We are now 13-3 since Yao went down. Which win do you find the most impressive? Here are the candidates I can think of:

3/2 Defeated Denver at home 103-89. First win against a Western Conference team in playoff contention. (15th in a row)

3/6 Won in Dallas after playing previous night, 113-98. No Dirk. (17th in a row)

3/8 Defeated New Orleans at home, 106-96. No David West. (18th in a row)

3/16 Defeated Lakers at home, 104-92. No Gasol/Bynum (22nd in a row)

3/21 Won at Golden State, 109-106.

I think I'll go with New Orleans.
