1. I am constantly amazed at Nash. The general consensus among media types is that he is among the best in the league now, but not in a class with Bird and Jordan. That first half was an amazing display. Nash has to be one of the most efficient players in NBA history. No turnovers, high percentage shooting etc.
2. I love watching KT play D. He is so fundamentally sound. HS coaches should tape him and use it to teach youngsters. He is always in the right place, he never gives up his space, and he never leaves his feet or takes a fake, his arms are always straight up. Watch how many players miss close shots when KT is between them and the basket. The best news is that Amare seems to be watching, there were a few times last night when he did just like KT. Its not as flashy as flying in for a block, but it is much more effective.
3. Whodathunk our deep bench would make a difference in the playoffs. Rose, Banks, Burke and company played most of the 4th quarter, and managed to score a little and stay on the floor, giving our starters a rest and avoiding injury risks. Props to them.
