    We do have several candidates...he's one of them. Waiters reminds me of someone just without the air guitar and 10 seconds of dancing with the rock but I did like that cat.

    Such a beautiful stepback. Why are there no minutes for this guy? He can play.

    He should be playing when we are searching for offense. He can score and create for others.

    I agree that Dion should be playing. But for Vogel, I think it's a size and matchup thing. Houston and OKC have smaller perimeter players and I expect more PT for him next round.

    Did Dion finally earn some playing time tonight over JR? JR is so washed up but he's living off his rep as a 3 point shooter from 3 years ago.
    At least Dion can use a PnR and get to the bucket

    Did well creating for others as well as getting his own shot. Kept his dribble alive, head up as he picked and probed the defense. Waiters' whipped on point passes to the perimeter as well as finding Lobster for flushes.

    Nice to see him get some minutes tonight and he did pretty well with them too.
