    The bench played great tonight. Svi, KCP, Lance and Tyson played great. We need more of that.

    6 players scored in double figures, almost 7. Always nice to have good balance.

    And a quality blowout win against a quality team known for their defense. Nice bounce back game.

    Wished for a great bounce-back game (on the 2nd game of a back-to-back at that) and we got it. Alright!

    Excellent game! So nice to bounce back and leapfrog our opponent in the standings. Back to 5th in the West, only 1.5 out of first. Beautiful.

    Our ball movement has been better. It's ALMOST like we are developing a system. Almost.

    Can see real confidence building, they aren't rattled by a loss. I think that's coming from Lebrons leadership. Still a lot things that you can point out that are glaringly wrong, but the team seems to be growing that confidence they've lacked for years and that's one of the hardest steps for sure.

    Convincing win, nice to see Lebrons mins at 32. Managing his mileage really will be key for this team. I'm impressed so far and there's been a handful of games they could have won pretty easily when you look back...

    We are a bad matchup for Memphis. Our pace gave them fits. We’re getting better folks.

    I went back and watched a good chunk of last night's game. Seems like the chemistry between LeBron and Kuz continues to grow. They've gotten really good at finding each other in the right moments, and it seems like LeBron has trust in the kid. I could not be happier, especially if Kuz is the one we keep after a mid-season trade.

    You can count on Phoenix in a crazy Western Conference where nothing else is certain.

    That Houston curve is quite dramatic.
