Actually our shooting percentage was good - but we did get killed on the
boards. Really could have used Popeye with Mercer playing only 22 ineffective
minutes. Sloppy ballhandling. I can understand Willis abusing us, but
Christie?  Pierce really looks like the real deal although we've only seen him
against the Raptors so far. Riley with 9 pts & 11 rebounds! We may have really
found a diamond in the rough. Meanwhile our 2 highest paid players disappeared
in the second half (Walker/Anderson).

Did you enjoy the view from the bench Stew?
