Some notes, judging purely by statistics:

1. Nice to see Rasheed break out and have a 20 point performance, however I really hate to see it come at the cost of efficiency out there... 8/21? 1/6 from 3? Horrid game from the field, but hopefully the aggressiveness will bring some efficient scoring in coming games.

2. Tayshaun Prince shot over 50% from the field for his usual cut... 15 points... but 3/6 from the free throw line? At home in the relative quiet? C'mon Tay! That should have been an 18 point game! I'm sure Flip will be on his case about that.

3. On the other side of the card... Ben Wallace went 4/4 from the line upping his season average to a shining 65.5%! Ben Wallace, nailing his free throws? Can we say career high in PPG? Seriously, folks... if he hits near 70% of his free throws the last few years, that's probably another couple of points onto his season averages. He's going to get a few less contested shots this year if teams think he'll nail those freebies.

4. Darko Milicic goes 2/3 from the field in five minutes, pulling down three rebounds... I'd love to see him on the floor more early. Antonio McDyess just isn't getting it done, and Darko is SERIOUSLY as close as Flip Saunders is going to find to KG on this team. If he wants big men playing a face-up game and to get them the ball further from the hoop, Darko Milicic's lateral speed and height would make him a key player out there. GET HIM IN THE GAMES, DAMMIT.


Thats all I have, you've all been great... good night!
