    Who's your player of the game? Deke or TMac?

    I would choose Deke for his critical and 1 play and offensive rebounds at the end of the game.

    Deke was amazing today on the boards, but if T-Mac played like the old man T-Mac we saw earlier this season, we would probably have been smoked by the Sonics.

    LOL

    CRITICAL 3 point play. He was standing 3 feet away from the basket and laid it in

    It kind of sucks that Tmac is playing so well now that Yao is out... That means I still have to wait to see the real Tmac-Yao combo.

    Ya! if T-mac played like a few months ago, we would have lost by 10-20 pts.

    While Alston has shown his veteran's savvy with his 3rd-quarter offensive outburst Novak is quickly making himself irrelevant to this team ... wtf

    Gotta say MAC. He has been touched with the hand of consistency. Shot better than 50 %. Can't ask for more.

    But DEKE is definitely putting up some effort that no 40 year-old should be giving. I love the old man's heart.

    But I thought they're many on this board who prefers Ray Allen and his 32pts, 3rebs, 2asts, 0 stls, and 0 blks

    Ray Allen, however, is also great tonight
    he is so hot in three-point line in the second half
    that made me nervous when 23.1 seconds was left....

    Glad we won. We need to take care of business. But let's keep things in perspective. The Sonics W/L record is now 13-21. Playing the Jazz will be a test of where we are at with our current lineup.

    He's missing shots but he looks more like he belongs out there. Instead of running around with no purpose Novak is finding a slot at the 3 point line to receive passes and setting meaningful picks on the perimeter. For him, that's a good start.

    More like, we'll see just how good this T-Mac really is when we play the Jazz. I doubt we can win without him playing to his fullest.

    He wouldn't have even got a look at that play without McGrady's amazing passign ability. But none the less Dikembe Mutumbo has been nothing less than spectacular.

    T-Mac is still player of the game for me because when Allen started taking over, so did McGrady. That's the McGrady we used to know. Keep it steady through the 4th and then *bam* just like that, start hittin' daggers in the 4th. Dikembe sure does come close. Why not just give it to both of 'em? :)

    T-Mac's confidence is ridin' high right now. Jazz is the first good team we play since Yao goes down and T-Mac comes back, the real test is just ahead.

    Thank you Skip :p

    Novak, you're a designated shooter who's in to hit open shots. Put something in the basket please!!!

    Good game Howard, two months ago they were calling for a crucifixion.

    Mutombo must be on some Red Bull, no way a 40yr old can be up and down the court for 30min.

    I hope people on this board see why Lucas gets the minutes over Vspan.
