Just mention a couple of things first. I see a lot of people on Mia tonight. I think you are a little premature. I predicted Grant coming back and getting Jackson would help Mia and it has. But Mia isn't back yet. Mia won't be the team they should be until they realize that Strickland should be the point guard and getting 30 + minutes. Pat seems to be hung up on developing Carter as a point guard. So far this has not worked. Strickland pushes the team while Carter stands and dribbles the clock down. Bad shots and low shooting pc has been the outcome. Now with Strickland getting the ball to the shooters in the right spots you are seeing more scoring out of Mia. Remember Mourning is sick and he went a lot of min last night (for him) and they were hard min. It's not being out of shape, he just can't be expected to go long min every night. I also said that Lue and Haywood would make a big difference in Wash and since that statement they have gone 5-2 with wins over Phil (with Iverson) at Phil and at Dal. One of the two loses was at SA and the other to Orl, two pretty good teams. They are beating the teams they should beat. Jordan is now starting to trust his team-mates and they are responding. Don't be too quick to load up on Mia tonight. This game can go either way. By the way, if Webber shoots under 45%, Sac goes down. Good luck
