Well Du, if you are still awake (it's midnite here) FSD is replaying the game right now (channel 663 on Direct TV) for League Pass subscribers> Unfortnautely DTV will let you DVR the live games, but not these middle of the night games....so I will watch a little of it before I drift off ZZZZZZ

Seriously? They said that? LOL

Didn't see the game, but I'm happy to see the Pistons winning again.

Re: Orlando Magic March 9th, 7:30 PM

Yeah, Dice called him Fabio in this video segment they did on how he always wins player of the game in the polls even if he plays bad or only a couple minutes. I think Dice or Rip said fans love "his hair". lol

It might not have been George, it might have been Greg on the broadcast crew though. The segment was pretty funny. Although the last time they did a segment like that on Kwame, he lost his starting job, so for Walt's sake, I hope this isn't the kiss of death.

Re: Orlando Magic March 9th, 7:30 PM

I think that was the most fun I've had watching a game in a long long time. So many great plays, and back-and-forth action. Dice was a MONSTER on the glass. Rip's passing was as good as I've ever seen. A good % for dunks/layups too. Kwame was solid. More importantly, EVERY single player on the floor wanted NOTHING more than to win. Everyone was going after it. Great to see.

No matter how many times it happens, beating Orlando is still a great feeling. I hate SVG.

We played Sheed-less from the 2nd quarter on and Orlando had as many free throws as Field goals.

That we won AT ALL is pure gold.

Great game. Curry finally subbed early in the first, with both Dyess and Prince out around the eight minute mark. Probably gave them more energy in the second half.

So, does Walt put up more shots per minute than any player in the league? Actually not, but it sure seems that way. Young man ain't shy.

Re: Orlando Magic March 9th, 7:30 PM

Best game of the year.

Dyess had a month off...why are we worried about him being tired for the playoffs?

Walter as Dr. J...the Max one handed alley oop dunk. This game was full of plays of the year.

The whole idea of Rip being traded...which I thought was a good idea...seems ridiculous now. But Rip is not the Griever anymore. He must have got to that 5th stage of grieving or the genius benching by Coach Curry turned him around.

The other Rip who seemed uninspired and destined to be traded is gone.

lee on Kwame Brown - "The amazing thing is that he held onto the passes he got. Who knows, maybe his teammates are learning how to throw him the ball right."
That's awesome lee!!!

I agree with all those who said that this game was fun to watch.
Good ball/player movement and flow on offense.
When was the last time this team had 30 assists?













(PS) Herrmann was -7

I know what you're saying, but there is a big difference between the C's and PF's out there. I mean Rashard Lewis is a PF. Lamar Odom. Kirelenko.

And Dyess isn't a statue, he's just a little slow side to side. He makes up for it in stength.

But that's why we have Max and Amir. Big man diversification.

Did you see Kwame throwing his weight around out there? He's a big dude. Even when he was late to box out and he was going up against Howard, he seemed able to pinball him out of there.

We have a big man for every occasion.
