I actually think Bruno can be useful during the Playoffs. He's still a big, athletic big.

In case you were wondering.

I know Hunter isn't hitting his threes, but if he can give us this and good defense in the playoffs we are in business.  He looks special on the court.  He's so much smoother than last year and his ball handling hasn't regressed one bit!

Sling blade, sling blade

[marco102]

Alright  Hunter draw those fouls!

Trae and John playing hot potato warms my cold heart

Okongwu in the 1st half. 16:20 Minutes played.
9 Points, 9 Rebounds, 2 Blocks. 4 of 4 from the field.

Hunter looks 100%.
13 Points, 4/8 from the field in 15:13 1st half minutes.

Okungwu looks good. 4-4 for 9pts, 9rbs, 2 blocks, 2 assists.

Brunooooooooooooooo!!

Hunter's defense - wow! Loving his ability to get to the freethrow line.

Everybody showing something in this game except . . . 

 

Nathan Knight

 

Let's see if he picks it up in the 2nd half.

Get your 20 and 20 game Okongwu!!

Can’t stress how invaluable playoff experience is for a rookie.  Hopefully Young Yek starts an Al-like run of playoff appearances to start his career.  The Bawse Al not the streetwalker Al.

Okongwu really showing out vs this small team.

It's like he's in college right now.

[MaceCase]

Gwu dey chop! 

[MaceCase]

Welcome to the party, Knight!

I think Kelly Olynk was better as a rookie in Summer League than he is as a 9 year vet.  I couldn’t understand for the life of me why the Heat had him starting.

LOL Streetwalker Al.

He made his big money, but jacked up his legacy.

 

He would've gone down as a top 5 beloved Atlanta Hawk, had he'd stayed here.

Instead, we hate him in Atlanta . . they hate him in Boston . . and they hate him in Philly.

Well . . . "hate" is a strong word.  I don't know if Hawks fans hate him. Maybe the right phrase is that we "could care less" about him.

Kelly had been looking good in Houston,  pretty much.
