Tuesday nights games
After looking like they would get blown out early on, the Nets came back
against the Kings in the fourth to make it a game, but they still lost.
The Kings are so deep. They just keep plugging in players. Jim Jackson
didn't have the opportunity to do much, and picked up a couple of cheap
offensive fouls, but it's hard to believe the Kings got him for almost
nothing.
When Webber is struggling someone else always steps up. They are really a
great team. I'm certainly not looking forward to their matchup with the C's.
Dallas came out on fire against Ming and the Rockets. They couldn't miss.
It didn't help that LaFrentz totally dominated Yao inside. Four of Raef's
five blocked shots were on Yao and at least one of them was highlight reel
quality. Of course you won't see that on Sportscenter.
Dallas finally started to cool off in the second half , but the Rockets were
never able to get it together enough to make it close. They were their own
worst enemy with turnovers and bad shots at the most inopportune times.
Cleveland didn't put up much of a fight against Orlando in Smarts first
game as Coach. Does anyone else think that job is the kiss of death?
Orlando played a more traditional brand of ball then has been the norm for
them.
McGrady still got the majority of touches but he wasn't dominating the ball
like he usually does. Much more of the offense went through Vaughn. Jacque
came away with 11 assists to show for it and McGrady still got his 35 points.
Pat Garrity looked dreadful for most of the evening but still ended up with
20 points. He may be trying to take the opportunity to unseat Walker as the
top's in 3 pt attempts, going 4 of 13 this evening.
Did I mention that Cleveland looked terrible?
