    finally see you three guys healthy and running, How happy I am.

    I think if Rafor comes back, we are gonna have a chance to compete for championship. We have to keep our lineup consistent. That is very important

    You sir, are a man on a mission !!!


    Great game by TMac tonight, he made everyone better, and actually got quicker as the game went on.

    Yao getting position and passes on time in the paint and most importantly Aaron Brooks....the guy played great and put pressure on Denver all night long, he may actually be a starter with this team.

    When everybody is healthy and clicking, this team can beat anybody in the league.

    So true!

    Bring back Rafer!

    Ok - I've defended Rafer plenty and suggested that he's a reasonable defender who is a 'steadying influence' - BUT, if AB can play this way on a consistent basis, then Alston is very little chance of remaining our starting PG.

    Brooks has been great so far this year - particularly shooting the ball - and to hold Billups in check all game is an amazing effort.
    Little doubt (in my mind) that Battier's talk and help D played a major part in that - but so what? It's a team sport!

    Great game AB! Keep it up.

    Stevie was disappointed. Saw Brooks try to cheer him up, feel for Stevie.

    Tmac has been playing/shooting much better since coming back from the "rest" he took. He looks a little quicker with the first step and is starting to drive to the basket as well.


    Great team win.

    AB outplays Billups.
    Yao plays big for a change (though not consistently).
    Artest makes some huge plays.
    TMac creates, dishes and scores.

    We beat them 5 on 8 too!

    Wow.

    LOL AB gets Landry's player of the game when T-Mac had the triple double and won it for us?

    Nothing major, just saying that's kinda wack. T-Mac probably just didn't want a postgame interview or something.

    Brooks was great though, deserves credit.

    When Tmac had the ball, he made plays.

    Yao scored at will in the post.

    Ron Artest stepped up in the 4th quarter.

    Aaron Brooks played awesome in place of Rafer.

    We played great team defense.

    This is the team we want to see show up every game.

    Still longing for the day when the crowd is chanting "We Want Reefer" just for nostalgia after a blowout win.
