    It did work. I even turned it on about 3 minutes before the game and had no problems. The only thing was the delay. I was checking out the stats on Yahoo as the game went on and realized that Yahoo was about 5 minutes ahead of the radio.

    Other than that, it worked well.

    Good, I'm glad it worked.

    Thanks

    Yea, I've noticed with some of the audio links it doesn't matter when you turn it on. I have only had a few links where you had to start it 30 minutes prior to the game. I can't remember which links they are now, (I knew I should have marked them when I found out.) so I just put that note with every link I post.

    A comeback should not have been necessary against the worst team in the NBA.

    Unfortunately it was....


    Thank god they did comeback or there probably would be riots, burning and looting right now on this board.... :eek:

    bad part was they struggled against an already iffy team with three players that hadn't played for them before. So much for the argument we have it takes a while to get used to the new system....

    Is that why they had 23 assists?

    SF - 9 assts
    Cat - 6 assts
    JJ - 6 assts

    JJ 1-8 3pt
    pike 2-4 3pt

    If they are going to leave someone open with Steve, Cat, Yao and MoT in the game it looks like JJ. Maybe Pike should get a few more of those 37 JJ minutes? Instead of just 17 min.

    Let's start SF, Cat, Pike, Yao and MoT

    Ironic quote because it brings to mind Steve Francis.

    "I never saw him play one possession of high school summer league or anything," Van Gundy said. "But I love his demeanor, and I love the way he plays the game. He plays with no frustration. If he's open, he shoots. If he's guarded, he passes. I know that seems rudimentary. The decision-making sets him apart. He just gets it. "

    Jeff Van Gundy on LeBron James, who at 18 is better than Steve Francis may ever be as a playmaker.

    I didn't see the game...

    Sure we should have done better, but looking at the box score I see good things...

    I like it.

    We are young. Moochie is gone. He shoulda' kept the hair.

    You can't expect everyone on the team to shoot 50% in every game. No team in the league does that. Somehow, other point guards are still able to average 8-9 assists with regular shooting percentages. But you are right of course, Steve Francis is the best playmaker in the league and it is because of having crappy shooters like Piatkowski, Padgett, Mobley, Taylor, Yao, and Nachbar on the team that he averages less assists/48 than any starting PG in the league.

    hehe...well Cato is a major problem on offense. But then Taylor is bad thing for our defense...we need Eddie. HE is like our only hope without making any trades. And I don't think we are gonna trade Francis or Yao or anyone at this point...unless it's like Kobe for Moochie. :/
