    At least our youngsters got some experience. They showed a lot of heart. Gotta give them their props.

    They didn't give up and they played well down the stretch with the bench.

    Head has been very solid all season, tonight he really stepped up his game. I think he could become a solid starter at SG in the near future.

    This game exposes Yao's mental and physical weakness.

    No way.... this game rocked. Loss or win, if there was ever a moral victory, this was it. 26-1 run? WOW.

    ok, this game was good, proves our scrubs deserve more respect, deserve more time, hopefully they can be utilized earlier when the starters are choking so heavily.

    good game

    man i turned it at 27 down and then turned it back on at 94-79 and decided to keep not watching to not mess with the comeback, then i turn it back and it's 94-90 and i can't believe LA still has the same 94. then we get a 3 second defensive and then i see padgett a little later going to the line at 94-92. i didn't want to watch to not mess it up but apparently that didn't matter b/c i turned it back at 96-92, after kwame apparently got away with an amazingly obvious offensive goaltending. oh well, crazy to go 26-1 with our scrubs in.

    a loss is a loss, but at least it feels a little better. Yay moral victories.

    I truly believe Rafer's 0-6 shooting cost us the game
    we could have a commanding lead in the first half when the starters were playing well around Yao, Rafer just jacks up 3 pointers from elbow when nobody is guading him: THEY LEFT HIM OPEN FOR A REASON!!!!

    This is the kind of game you hate the most, because you have to say this:
    "If we had made this missed free throws, we could have won this game."

    I don't know why Novak took that shot when we are down by 3 and there are still 40 seconds to go. Get the ball to Yao and make a easy 2 or fouled. :mad: JVG should designate a play for Yao.

    Good effort of our bench. Hope JVG learns to trust them more.
