[CP26]

Any word on Caron playing tonight?

[MJG]

I'm a bit worried about this one. We're the perfect team for Howard to have his first huge game of the year against, and we're so the type of team to lose its home opener after two straight road wins. I'm not calling a loss or anything, but I'm not sure I'm ready to call a win either.

[afireinside]

well, our interior defense is that bad. in the last two games we kept the centers/forwards to pretty low point totals (although our rebounding was pathetic). I think we can shut down Howard. it's Turkoglu who scares me. he always does good against our team somehow.

I think we definetly win at home and start 3-0!

[BCH]

We match up poorly vs Orlando. And no way we start 3-0.

So I call a loss based on trends over the past 25 years.

[MJG]

Caron's out again. Wondeful.

[MJG]

Haywood is so the man. One of the best things that's happened to the team since I started watching, getting him for what we did.
