Great, great win. Hopefully we can keep it going on Friday in a huge early season game against the luckiest team on the planet (at least when they play us)

Detroit will be a good early test on how our team has progressed. Can't wait for that one!

I have a good friend who is a die-hard Pistons fan. I want to be able to talk smack to him for once! :@

I have a feeling the Pistons will be really good this year considering no one has been talking about them and they are under the radar. But I really hope we can beat them.

We need as many wins as we can early on considering the dreadful November we have ahead of us.

Great game. Hope we can keep the intensity up against Detroit on Friday. We need some work on rebounding.

Wonderful game! Wow this team rocks! Rashard is the real deal, and Turk is really benefiting being the 3rd scorer. The defense focuses on Lewis and Howard and Turk is getting some good looks. Dwight is a defensive beast, 7 blocks!!

That's one of the things I wrote about in my recap. Milwaukee grabbed 43% of its own misses. We can't let the really good teams do that and expect to win.

Hey Ben, I pulled this quote from your recap in your blog.

Something else of note: Trevor Ariza didn't get into the game until the final minutes of the first half. He ended up not scoring in 7:32 of action. This news concerns me. Perhaps Stan Van Gundy doesn't think Trevor fits into his offense, which I think is a shame. Trevor might be my favorite player, and I don't want him to have to languish at the end of the bench all season.
I think the main reason he didnt play was because of the injury that held him from played much at all in the preseason. Its probably because hes still recovering and not at game speed yet. Thats my thought.

I think it's also a matter of how deep our team is and not everybody will be a focal point every night.

What is up with Trevor only playing garbage time.... Garity is taking all his minutes, we have plenty of shooters we get some defense in there.

I hope that changes.

Just got back fromo the game, Jameer looked focused I will take a game like this from Jameer every night. He looked controlled and he let the game come to him. The only reason he didnt score more is b/c his shot was off. He would have had at least 14.

Shard looked good out there, and to think he still needs to build chemistry with his new team mates. Dwight really needs to guard the paint against Detroit like he did tonight. The offense will come to him. andwith so many guys getting open looks in this offense, If they hit they're shots there isnt a huge need for him to put up 25 a night.

I kinda wish they would've let Dwight play the first few minutes of the 4th quarter just to see if he could tally up three more blocks and complete the Triple-Double.
