Anyone remember the Jordan rules? Maybe Flipper should call Daddy Rich and figure out some T-Mac rules.

40+ against the Pistons. Are we sure that they didn't borrow Smush Parker from the Lakers for one game to guard? T-Mac.? LOL

40 points.... blah, and to think i thought we were going to be ripped on the espn shows tonight.... thanks kobe.

@ SA
2 points (2 of 3), 0 rebounds, 1 assist, 1 foul

vs. Miami
5 points (2 of 4), 0 rebounds, 0 assists, 1 foul

@ Cleveland
1 point (0 of 2), 1 rebound, 1 assist, 2 fouls

A combined 8 points, 1 rebound, 2 assists, and 4 fouls in those 3 games. Evans was just as good (or mediocre I should say) in those games.

The biggest difference I see is that Mo Evans has hit BIG shots for us in the 3rd and 4th quarters in close games (he hit a big 3 today when we were down 1 point with 6 minutes left in the game). Delfino has not. The Boston game was his only real shining moment. Most of his other points were garbage-time buckets. I'll give him the Clippers and Heat games, but Evans has that kind of impact every other game or so, so I need to see more.

We can talk about talent all we want, but Evans is going out there and producing. His shot may be ugly, and his game may be limited, but he always seems to find a way to put points on the board and hustle for those rebounds. And his defense is getting better as we speak.

when you all turn 42 like me, u will look back and realize how special seeing ANYONE score 81 pts in a game. I saw David Thompson's 73 pts vs 'us' and it was crazy cuz he's only 6'3"! I love NBA LEAGUE PASS and this is why...Pistons and Kobe back to back. We cant wait til we go to Showtimeland. He'll be psyched to play us...my bruddahs!
Great games all over league tonight and our boy, Jerome , is coming home for the SuperBowl...wooooo!

Max, like Cbill said, Sometimes Sheeds head aint right in the game. Cause when it is we're unstoppable.

Delfino did a decent job guarding Wade, LaBron, and Ginobili in those three games. Delfino also does a lot of good ball handling that helps our offense score points. This does not alway show up in the stat sheet.

I'll give you Wade. I was impressed with his defense on him (he guarded him as well as anyone). He only saw Ginobili for a few plays. Defended him well on one or two and gave a touch foul on the other. In fact, they were only in the game at the same time for a little over a minute. And Lebron just lit him up (as he did everyone), so I don't know about that one.

that's not true, Delfino guarded LeBron as well as anyone can, he made Lebron make tough shots, he made the refs bail Lebron out with cheap fouls.

Any idea why Delfino only was given 10 minutes after several consistently good performances? Was it because the game was close? Flip played Evans during crunch time in the closing minutes so I'm curious as to why Delfino didn't get his usual minutes throughout the game?

It's because he was picking up fouls like crazy. Mo Evans was doing a decent job on T-Mac (or rather, T-Mac went cold against him, so Flip didn't want to change anything to ruin that trend).
