SOME GOOD STUFF

O.K., so the boys lost to the Bulls last night 85-76. So what? Four games in five nights isn't easy. They were fine until a 20-3 Bulls run sapped their energy and enthusiasm. No big deal. Everyone loses eventually. I'm feeling much better about our team lately. Winning some games helped out, but I think I'm adjusting and accepting what our reality actually is. The Orlando Magic braintrust has decided, either rightly or wrongly, that they've spent sufficient time and money on upgrading personnel, and that the present group is talented enough to make a serious playoff run. Only time and patience will tell. Brian Hill was given this group and told to WIN. I've come to realize that under these circumstances, he's doing a masterful job. I suspect that if given his "druthers", coach Hill, who is from my generation, would probably prefer coaching and watching a more open and artful game. But given the cards he was dealt, and I mean that in a good way, this style of play does assure us of being competitive in most games. Hell, were five hundred without G.Hill. Not too shabby. The future doesn't look all that bad now, given what i've come to accept. If we were going to make something happen, it probably would have happened already. So be it. Let's move on and have a good season. P.S.------ the backcourt should be Steve and G.Hill, Hedo is the perfect 6th man and Jameer should continue coming off the bench. Let Catos' contract expire or move him. Keep Dwight in the 4 spot, Let Tony continue playing the 3 until something better comes along. Start Kasun at center a.s.a.p., either we have something there or we don't. It's time to find out!
