I thought I saw in the yahoo play by play that Roy briefly came back in on offense after people on here started freaking out. Did he not?

It seemed like they were playing Roy on O and Batum on D for the last two minutes...

Roy came in to inbound the ball and that was it. He went right back to the bench.
 
The thing I liked best about this game was our defense in the 2nd half. We were very agressive and didn't let them get comfortable in any of their sets. If we play defense like that we can play with anybody.
 
Damn! Didn't know it was an early game. Could have at least listened to the radio, or did Comcast black that out too?

Will be early for the next 3 road games. Then we're back in our timezone in Oakland.

This was was taken before the Orlando game.

Despite being the 2nd youngest team, we have 3rd fewest turnovers.

Turnover Percentage.

The percentage of turnovers committed per 100 possessions.

We have the 5th best offensive turnover percentage, .116

http://www.basketball-reference.com/leagues/NBA_2009.html

Defensively, the 19th best rate, .139

Last year, it was 8th best on offense, 27th best on defense.

In 2006-2007, 19th best on offense, 25th best on defense.
 
Nice game for Blake tonight- 20 pts, 5 rebs, 4 assts, 2 steals, no turnovers

I think 5 turnovers is close to a team record -- is it 4?

The team record is an NBA record (or at least, it used to be). 3 against the Suns years ago. Or maybe the Spurs.
 
The Magic possibly has the worst group of guards I have ever seen in my life!

Travis Outlaw = Rashard Lewis, minus $100 million
 
If we had held on to our lead against Utah, we would be in first place right now!

I'm pretty sure Lewis has been able to stroke it at a much better rate than Outlaw through his career. If Lewis and Outlaw has the same salary, I would choose Lewis without even thinking

They don't, so what does it matter?

That said, Lewis is a career 46%/39% FG/3PT, while Outlaw is 44%/36%. Per 48, Outlaw beats out Lewis in steals and blocks, and he also gets to the line more.

maybe because Fez said Outlaw = Lewis minus 100 million?

Which is not the truth

Lewis has shot 3112 shots from behind the 3 pt line, outlaw has shot like 200 3's. They are different players, and I would rather have Rashard Lewis on my team than Travis Outlaw (minus salaries).
