I'm pretty excited that this team has slipped into contender status ahead of schedule.
The goal now is the same as it was for the Duncan teams: be healthy and playing good basketball by tournament time. We all know when they're supposed to peak.
Maybe I'm getting my games mixed up but I could swear I saw him playing in the first half right as they went down by so many points that I turned the game off. Been doing that more the last few weeks.
It's mostly a matter of resources. Cities up north have armies of equipment to clear roads. The towns I live and work in don't even have a street sweeper. The roads up here were a hockey rink yesterday.
