Oh, please get off your high horse already. You sounded like a certain type
in your post, and I made some assumptions, some of which were wrong. I
understand that you didn't appreciate it and I'm sorry about that. On the
other hand, I didn't appreciate being called stupid (by implication,  since
I posted and supported Holley's column) in your post either.  Let's just
leave it at that. 

On a different note, what a unexpected win tonight! They barely held off at
the end, but give them credit for being in that position in the first
place. Griffin seems to be regaining his pre-injury abilities, Walker and
Pierce contributed at key points of the game, and Kenny was simply
brilliant offensively. Even Danny was allowed to make a contribution (btw,
the nba.com boxscore has got to be wrong - Danny definitely played more
than 5 minutes and gathered more than the 2 off. rebounds they credited him
with - I distinctly remember his pulling down at least a couple of def.
rebounds as well.) Let's hope they don't consider this trip a success now
and relax.
