Personally I do not miss him at all.

Word yo. Can't believe he had a bunch of inexperienced guys to close the game. It's almost as if he thought this game didn't count or something. We need to fire him now, while we still got a chance to win the 'ship.

Oh my, this game and last game were like night and day.
Our defense was much, much better today. People rotated much more actively. We still had some wide open corner 3's, hopefully that will be addressed. Raja is just invisible until he misses a jump shot or fouls someone becasue he is too slow.
Josh Howard > Raja Bell. Thought Howard played hard and has some good defense. Needs to hit FT's, but I think his shot will come along.
Burks and Kanter are have been allergic to finishing, they are giving good effort though.
Kanter played some good man D. It looked like he was frustrating Aldridge with his physicality.
Evans is nasty. I want to see him get 5-10 minutes a game. I believe we can subtract from Bell to get this.
Hayward has looked bad. Looks like he has been reading Jazzfanz and looked to be forcing his play-making ability rather than letting it come to him.
Backup PG's looked good. Tinsley played great besides that little stretch of back-to-back TO's.
Favors didn't play much because of foul trouble, but he had a stretch were he was dominating everyone.
Jefferson looked much better. He shot a little too much, but he made some nice passes and rebounded well.
I thought Harris played good too. 2-3 from deep.
Okur was Slowkur again, but at least he hit some shots.
Miles had an excellent 1st half, then kind of reverted back to himself in the 2nd half, but still rebounded well. Overall a pretty good game. I like him off the bench as a spark plug.

Jefferson led the team in assists. Let's hope that was the first and only time that happens.
