Today, we play at New Orleans. They are 24-10 and are a talented roster. We are 3-7 in our last 10. They are 8-2 in their last 10.

We start off with a 12-2 lead! Turner is on fire early. Duncan with a few baskets too.

At the end of 1, we are up 35-20. Turner with 15 points in the quarter.


At halftime, we are up 57-49. Turner with 18 points, 7 assists, 2 boards, 2 steals, and a block. Superstar in the making.

They go on a 16-0 run in the middle of the 3rd before Jefferson hits a FT. We are down 69-64 with 3 minutes to go in the quarter.

At the end of 3, we are down 78-69. Terrible quarter.

We have closed with 3 several times but never closer. We need 1 more shooter. We are down 90-87 with 1:33 to go...

Murphy with a block and Young with a dunk off a screen.

Mo Williams with a steal and Young with a fastbreak dunk!

Paul misses a lay-up (good defense by Murphy inside) and Turner with the rebound. They intentionally foul Mo Williams. He hits both FT's. 93-90 lead.

Paul with a quick 12 footer. They foul Mo Williams again. He makes both FT's. 95-92. They call time, I get Holiday back in for his defense along with Duncan and Jefferson. All of my starters..

They miss a quick 3 and Duncan gets the rebound and is fouled. He makes both FT's. Gee with a quick 3! 97-95, we lead.

They foul Holiday. He makes both FT's to seal the game.

We win 99-95.

Turner is the player of the game with 26 points (rough 2nd half shooting), 8 assists, 7 boards, 5 steals, and 2 blocks. He had 1 turnover. He shot 80% in the 1st half but ended up 10 of 23, 4 of 11, and 2 of 4.

Duncan with 15 points, 7 boards, and 2 blocks.

Williams with 11 points, 3 assists.

Young with 11 points, 2 boards, and 2 blocks.

Speights with 9 points, 2 boards, and 2 blocks in 22 minutes.

Murphy with 8 points, 4 boards, and 1 block.

Jefferson with 8 points, 8 boards, 2 assists, and 1 block.

Holiday with 7 points, 8 assists, 3 boards, 1 steal, and 3 turnovers. He shot 2 of 9. Williams shot 3 of 5.

Baylor with 4 points and 3 boards in 13 minutes. I hate that his PT will get cut if I get a quality shooter, but we need a quality shooter. Powe isn't getting PT now that Duncan is here and he'll be the trade bait to see if we can get a shooter.
