    Wow! Looks like Posey is really our missing puzzle. :D TMo needs to glue his ass onto the bench from now on! ;)

    Hell...

    Always ask Francis to shoot a clutch 3-pointer near the end of the quarter. It is GOOD most of the time.

    43-36.

    too bad EG's on foul trouble. otherwise our lead will be even bigger!

    13 minutes. 11 points. 5-7 FG.

    Posey is a very good defender, and hustles all the time he's out there. He picked up a few cheap fouls but he also had a breakaway dunk off a steal, and an easy layup off a cut pass from Yao. These 'little things' add up over the course of a game, and I love this guy because he seems to be giving 100% every time he's on the court, especially on defense. He also looks to pass the ball unless it's an uncontested shot set up for him by his teammates. He should be a special player for us.

    I also loved seeing Eddie being more aggressive in the 1st quarter, and although he take some tough shots, he did make them, and that's great for his confidence, and it will improve his overall game. He also picked up 2 assists and a blocked shot which led to an easy layup for the Rox. Probably the highlight for me was him picking up an offensive foul while trying to post up the Mailman, that's great agressiveness on his part, which you don't see from Eddie too often. At this point in his career (he's only 20), Eddie just needs to be gaining confidence and playing more aggressively every time he's out there.

    eddie is definitely doing great. what i'd like to see him do more is take it to the hole and throw it down. there were a couple of instances where he had a chance to drive it in and dunk it but chose to take a jump shot. i just want him to do an amare stoudamire on someone.

    Nice assists, great shooting percentage, great ball movement, and nice to see our offense getting everyone involved.:)
