    they praised the rockets especially shane.
    but they were biased. well. in the 4th when things get serious.
    whenever there's a controversial call. they stand on warrior's side.

    Tonight? You've been bashing Battier quite often the last couple games. I shouldn't say bashing more like mocking him..

    Great win. Comeback wins are always the sweetest.

    Next game is going to be tough.

    In the locker room, Battier said the last 2 games were the 1st ones where he's had some spring in his legs. Maybe we can expect some more games like this out of him...like Saturday in Portland?

    If he could have 4-6 blocks on Brandon Roy, that would be awesome.

    Interesting. He showed quite a bit of spring on that failed dunk attempt, actually. I was surprised it was Battier who tried it.

    What a game!!!! game winning streak. Loving it!! Battier with 6 blocks, amazing. We were down by 10 with 3 min to go. This was one gritty win. We won by freethrows. And how stupid of monta ellis to get a travel to end the game. That's just a pitiful way to lose. I love it.

    Cool, but I won't get my hopes up. That feeling can come and go with older players.

    as a battier critic, he was GREAT in this game. GREAT.

    AB with another big offensive game. MANDRY continues to rise as an NBA player.

    Im really digging this new trend of Battier guarding the opposing teams PG. He has completely shut down D.Will, Ellis and Davis to a lesser extent. Tonight was particularily crafty. He was playing close on Ellis and inviting him to drive to his left setting him up for blocks over and over.

    Its so nice NOT being the team that gets blocked over and over. :p

    Hmmm...Rick Adelman is a genius.

    Compensate for Battier's decrease in athleticism by making him guard smaller players that he can slow down and bother with his considerable length over them. RA really knows how to make the best use of the ingredients and bring out each and every one of their flavors.
