    DMo was starting to come along before he got hurt, once he was out of the game there was absolutely nothing out of the "bigs" with Dwight on the bench. Jones did add in a missed dunk and a few turnovers though.

    I only love eating cheese cake. Manila doesn't have good cheese cake.

    Notes so far:
    - Harden is consistently staying only one step away from his man on off ball defense (Not 2-3 like last season)
    - Even without a center in the game, our starting unit's defense is solid
    - Beverly's handle's have improved a lot
    - Starting unit's offense is clicking.
    - Overall defense is great. (Holding them to 41% shooting

    If by one you mean two, then you're right. He has 6 points.

    That's not us doing that, the Pacers are a pretty terrible team when it comes to shooting the ball.

    T Jones had few mistakes..but he's looked better than Dmo. T.Jones is our best power forward..sorry Greg Smiths offensive game is limited..and his D is subpar..

    Not really, Jones is a complete black hole on offense and his D hasn't been good. Right now Smith is probably a better option with DMo out.

    Bev and Harden have been very, very good. Lin and Parson have been solid.
