I don't want to get in trouble for directly posting this, but if you want some thinly veiled innuendo (ok ok...no innuendo at all actually) go to Youtube and watch Andy Samberg's new song "I Just Had Sex (feat. Akon)"
I agree, not a bad half. And I also think we win this going away.

Post game: Raja had a great game. Talking heads point out that he wasn't defended well, but they wonder why otherwise.
(Answer = Bell played more alongside Miles, which helps to spread the defense more than Kiri does.)
Kirilenko and Jefferson were mediocre tonight, yet they were rewarded with extra fourth quarter PT.
Evans and Fesenko both were DNP. My views on the damage of not developing Fes are widely known, but it should be even more clear that Evans needs PT, and Utah could afford giving Evans PT in this game and still win. Instead, Sloan gave backup PF time to AK, and it wasn't particularly impressive.
Meanwhile, Jefferson--and Elson, for that matter--weren't really warranting extra minutes. Instead, Sloan goes back to "his guys," and that near-starter fourth-quarter lineup cuts the lead back to 10 or less. AJ and AK deserved to play 5 to 7+ less than they did--precisely the bare minimum minutes that Evans and Fes should get on any night.
Kudos to the Jazz for winning a gimme. Unfortunately it was a missed opportunity for development--more for Evans, given that outside Varejao, the Cavs aren't particularly tall.

nice win...
A nice win. We built a 20 point lead then kind of hit cruise control, otherwise it would have been much worse. I thought overall just about everyone but AK had a solid game. Nice double-double for big Al - I thought he had a pretty good game. Hopefully Raja is back on track now. Good production from CJ and Paul too. Again, nice job by the team overall. On to Minnesota. Let's get the W and finish off this trip 3-1!
