    "I was matched up on Mobley a couple of times. The guy almost shook me out of my shoes."

    I liked this part too...

    Mobley torched Sura for the majority of his 28 first-half points with a dazzling assortment of fakes, drives and pull-up jumpers. Demonstrating the quickness that earned him the nickname "Cat," Mobley got to the basket with ease in accounting for more than half of his team's output.

    Making all those shots must have tired him out, because Mobley ascribed his second-half slowdown to trying to conserve energy. Maybe he was just doing his civic duty as a visitor to California.

    pound for pound I'll go with Iverson.

    In a couple of years Mobley should be one of the top SG in the NBA. All he needs to learn is to play better D and stop trying to make highlight reel passes that end up in turnovers.

    I agree. Just calculate his points per pound average, you'll see! [​IMG]

    I wished he would've played- he would've bricked a WHOLE lot more than Sura did. [​IMG]

    Sura had a pretty solid game in his own right last night too...to the tune of 31 points, 6 rebs. and 6 assists.

    Was ANYBODY playing defense last night????
