Mozgov?!? Is this the same guy who let Blake Griffen fly over him? I hope tonight was no fluke game from him because he came to play! He rebounded, hit the open shot, played great defense and was a force inside the paint tonight (no sloppy dropped passes by him like in the beginning of the year). If this guy can be as half as effective as he was tonight, then there is no reason that he should not be starting at center while STAT goes to his natural power forward position and dominate guys like he did tonight. I will be disappointed if Mozgov does not get any significant playing time next game because he earned it.
Other than that i think we did a great job beating a team that has no right winning at MSG tonight. We are a better team and showed that tonight despite being behind at halftime. Great game by Gallo, who is really coming into his own as a player. We know that he can shoot the lights out, but his slashing and his ability to get to the FT line has improved dramatically this season. His defense has shown a vast improvement from last year and you can tell he looks more polished. All he needs to do is be more consistent and he can become a borderline all star in my opinion.
Great game from Amare tonight as he just dominated the Detroit frontcourt. Felton is still in a bit of a slump and it's disappointing because he was in the All star conversation before. Hopefully he breaks out of it because this offense relies so much on the play of our PG and his ability to find the open man as well as break down the defense. Toney Douglas has shown maturity as the backup PG though and he is not taking the horrible shots that he took earlier in the season. If he can keep it up and Mozgov can be a consistent 10/10 starter than we have a legit team with Turiaf,Douglas, Chandler, and Shawne Williams off the bench.
