I'm happy we won and all, very happy. But we HAD to win this game, or else the season could have been a wash. I know it's one game, I know. But with our next five games being @NO @SA vsHOU vsCHA @ORL, we need to move forward with a full head of steam.
We have to win 3 of those games, IMO, to consider it a success. I think we can compete with Houston and definitely Charlotte for a win considering we're at home and both are suffering injuries. So that means we're going to have to play our asses off in one of New Orleans, San Antonio, or Orlando. I know at least two of them are gonna be close games, so the fact that we let a 24 point 4th quarter lead shrink into a 1 point lead with just under a minute to go makes me rather.. happy. Gives us that much more experience in how to finish off a close game. Dunleavy drawing the three against Bosh was beautiful to turn a 100-99 lead into a 4 point game. Shows us that we CAN win against a decent team, and the fact that even though they had a go-to guy in Bosh, we can still come away with a close victory.
I think we will beat New Orleans.

Granger was going on my nerves. He was 0 for 8 in the 4th quarter and he continued to chuck up 3's. I was yelling: "GO TO THE FRICKIN BASKET!". He finally drove to the basket and made the layup, that is what he should do everytime when he is ice cold from the 3pt land.
Anyway I am very happy that we won and it was great to see Dunleavy come through in crunch time. Dunleavy has been bricking shots he usally make so it is good to see that he is back in action.

I meant cold as ice. In a good way. Ice runs through his blood, etc.
Basically I was trying to see that despite his bad shooting in the fourth, which everyone is off from time to time, he was able to overcome it and STILL help win the game for us.

But like you said, Dunleavy was huge too.
oh ok, I missunderstood you
But like I wrote in my other post, Granger came through in the end with that layup when he was struggling with his outside shot.
