    Man. I was impressed with our defense tonight. We had alot of intensity on D. Morris and Griffin with 9 blocks were the key to our tough D. I am looking forward to tuesday because I think we are looking good.

    Griffin and Morris had a block party on the biggest frontline. They got most of their blocks on duncan and robinson. Imagine when they play the other teams who dont have a twin tower,....... 14 blocks? :)

    Which Block? He had so many I dont remember. ;)


    I like the first block on duncan, where he slammed the ball to the floor. Duncan looked soo mad, he was going to kill himself.

    The rockets had me off my seat all through the 4th quarter. Super defense by the rockets, and happy we beat the spurs for the second time.

    Does this mean we have to sign both guys to six year, 42 million dollar contracts now?

    I'ts good to see that our rebounding and shotblocking has improved with the addition of Griffin and Morris,but I think it will take quite a lot of time for Griffin to become a low post player.Rudy will make sure that he gets outside shots to he can stretch opposing defenses.Morris also needs to become a more consistant outside shooter and be more aggressive on the offensive end,I think he can learn a lot from Rice.

    I didn't get to see the game, being a Californian, but could someone tell me who Mobes was guarding. It looks like both the three and the two for the Spurts was held to about 6 points, AD on the other hand went off.

    Mobes was guarding Steve Smith and Bowens.
