Re: Not All Bad

Yep, we're crossing our fingers and hoping we can squeeze more juice out of
Hunter than may be there. 2nd round choices are what they are for a reason
on average. It is amazing how many of us see each game a little differently.
Today the Celts shot 53% and lose. The offensive rebounds lost had something
to do with that. Not to mention the Wizards going to the line 14 more times
is incredible. The PF position is feeble, we haven't been doing bad playing
with 4 guys most of the time.
