Big win last night against the Spurs, should make a statement with all the naysayers, although I doubt it will get anymore airtime than the usual recap.

Rip had a huge game, dropping 25 and nailing a near-impossible and-1 jumper from 20 feet out.

“I’m never in a lull,” Hamilton insisted. “When I don’t shoot, people think that something’s wrong. We got a lot of All-Stars on this team.”

Tayshaun also stepping it up once again as the postseason nears. He had 17 points, 5 boards and 6 dimes.

Although Tony Parker went 12-18 from the field, it seems more like 18-18. Everthing was falling and every drive to the lane seemed to end up in Spurs points.

Smothering defense on Tim Duncan, who went 9-23 and got blocked 4 times. Mostly due to the energetic play of Sheed as well as Dice, who grabbed 17 rebounds, including 6 offensive.

Damon Stoudemire jacked up 7 long balls in 19 minutes, hitting only 1 of them.

I miss floor time from Arron and Amir, not to mention the occassional Walter sighting.
