Goggin,

I agree with your assessment. I saw the game too. One final note about
that game was how much of a dud David Wesley has become. Blaylock
totally kicked his butt in the final quarter and I'm sure Goggin could
back me up here, especially if you had the ESPN commentators (they were
saying Blaylock this, Blaylock that!).

Atlanta is a serious contender this season.
