I was watching Blatche, Donnell Taylor and Roger Mason Jr. last night and they looked great, especially Taylor. The future looks bright for the team if they can keep these guys. Getting them on-the-court experience that's not garbage time right now will be great for their development.

I was at the Toronto game. Ridiculous. I know Ruffin is team guy, good on the boards, etc... but I say cut him for that bone-headed move alone.
As far as the last few games go, it really is like watching the Zards during the pre-Arenas era. I don't get too upset because I know, in the end, they'll blow the lead and lose the game. No matter how good they look in stretches.
I am glad to see Blatche getting some solid minutes. He is probably the player I am most excited about on our team right now. Upside is huge. We need to sign him to a reasonable contract and send him to GNC for some shakes.
I am still excited about the playoffs. We've been in games without Gil and Caron and I think we have a real chance of sneaking through the first round. Especially if Caron comes back early like he's been alluding to.
