    Brooks need to calm down. He will in the second half. I want to see Cook spread the floor out and hit some threes.

    I predicted we would probably lose this game on page 2 or 3. Rafer is great at not turning the ball over and knowing when to push and when to pull. You don't just lose your floor general and retain the same continuity and chemistry and comfort level you had in 2 blowout wins. I predicted we would struggle in this game, and with the Mavpricks being a good team, we would lose this game. Despair not however, we will get better and wind up better in the playoffs than if we had Rafer.

    Not in defense, his strength. At least he MUST show Rafer defensive level in order the trade would be balanced.

    AB can't be CP3 bc he doesnt get 50 pick and roll plays called for him every game.

    I'm Right here, Von Wafer at least attacks the basket now-a-days. T-Mac doesn't attack, he stops ball-movement and he has horrible shot selection.

    Von Wafer > T-Mac, simply due to T-Mac's health though.

    And Rafer has 7 assists so far in his first game with the Magic. AB doesn't have the handles of Rafer.

    I wonder if Jalen would be able to talk at all without clutching onto the teleprompter for dear life. He's terrible.

    Wow...Some of you guys amaze me...

    We are only down by 7 without T-Mac and Landry and Rafer.....We have two young guards who will settle down in the second half. And we will pick up on the defensive side of the ball in the second half...

    This will be a close game....Book it.

    What I dont like is that Josh Howard just drives to the lane at will with no one even attempting to stop him !! Hell foul is arse a couple of times and make him think twice about driving in. I know some don't like Barkley but I remember him saying that he did that to put that in the back of their mind. Nothing flagrant just a little reminder that your there ;)
