Delay in the game starting as there is a leak. Everyone standing around looking up at the ceiling. Now players are at opposite ends shooting around the wet spot at opposite ends. There will be approximately a 10 minute delay to stop the leak.

Didnt like some of the refs calls. They were kinda influencing this game for a bit there, but they did better later on. P2 has gotta reign it in and use his veteran leadership skills do the talking for him. Letting Delfino get into his head really slowed down his momentum. Luckily KG is like a one track mind out there. He only thinks about doing his thing and leading by example. Everyone else falls into place like dominoes. Gotta love what Rondo was able to do to Calderon who is no slouch. Rondo has a subpar ast and reb nite, but he more than made up for it in pts, D and hustle. So Runrondo lets post the CG award poll!!!
