Box Score | AP Recap | Photos

I only got to see the first half (so far) but here are my impressions anyway:

• Nice to see Perkins on the floor.  He's in mid-season form with fouls at least.
• The starting unit just looks so good out there.  Crisp passes, smothering defense, open looks.  Fun to watch.
• Ray just abused Wally left and right.
• I liked seeing O'Bryant (PO Box 26? Notorious POB?) block a LeBron shot.
• It is good that Tony is being aggressive, but he's still out of control too much.
• Saw one nifty baseline move by Miles, but that's about it.

Some box score observations:

• DNP-CD's for the two rookies, Cassell, and Scalabrine.  Hmmmmm.
• Powe put up a nice stat line.
• Tony pulled down 6 boards.
• Not much else from the bench.  Other than Powe, the bench shot 6 for 25 from the floor.
