Not sure about the small set. I do know that Lance didn't get too many minutes last night (only 4). Beal played a large majority of the game and I think Tinsley was only running the point for about 5 minutes.

We'll have a preview up soon on the game Monday, but as a precursor, I think we match up pretty well. It's going to be important for our bigs to stay out of foul trouble and we have to own the glass with our size. The tallest post player (who actually plays) stands at 6'9", and so A.J. and Big Fez should have the ability to play well on the boards. They don't shoot the three particularly well as a team, so defending inside the arc is going to be an important task.

Does anyone who listened to the game know how our smaller set played - ie if we ever used lance, jj, steve t, and tinsley together on the floor?

Also, how do you all think we will do stopping the bearcats? From what I hear, they have pretty good dribble penetration. If they are in fact better than slater in the exhibition off the dribble we may be in deep trouble with our play in the paint.

Great to escape on the road given the paint performance, lot of things to take away from it heading into Maui. Can't wait for Monday.

How bout them crimson?

AJ is vastly more talented then Dawid was and therefore right now is vastly more dissapointing to watch right now.

Yeah the radio guys were killing AJ last night. On the flip side, they think Taylor is best thing ever.

I tend to agree.

Let's also not forget the importance of this victory. This was a tough road game, and Vegas knew it too. As a matter of fact, they made us -5 dogs in this game. This was a big victory for the Commodores and now we need to take that momentum and stick it to some teams in Maui.

AJ is turning into the next Pryziebsekiskeetskeet.... fun foreign player that we want to do well but will come up short when it comes to going to the next level.

The way he's playing right now he sure as heck won't be.

But, it's only a couple of games into the season. We'll see what he and Fez are made of yet.

I'm disappointed with Festus but I've come to expect bad things from AJ. He is not an NBA player. And I don't think he ever will be.
