Let's hear it.

Is this a Shabbaz thing?

If its a shabazz thing then wildwolf deserve a mentioned as well

Okay, WildWolf can crow too. I want to hear it.

I've seen enough to eat crow--I thought he was a worthless pick. But as it's turns out he gives a skill set we don't have. Mainly though I just liked his fire in the 4th quarter, and even though it was an odd lineup, between him, RR, Love, Brew and Dante you had 5 intense competitors out there...and there was ball movement!

Did you notice when he went nose to nose with Tucker? We don't have anybody willing to do that. It wasn't a big deal but it showed me something about his attitude. Play him against Matt Barnes.

I noticed it and i like it. We need more players on the team like that. Fiesty and competitive. He is growing on me..

Im actually seeing a bit of bonzi wells in shabazz. Big wing player who can work it in the post and bully his defenders there. Its just a small sample size though but i hope he keeps it up. We badly need a young guy with upsize on the team.

Props to Shabazz, he played great. I'm gonna need to see a few more games like this to be completely sold but I didn't think he was capable of playing like that so it was great to see.

I also see this game as a huge knock on Adelman. Our bench has been a joke most of the year and it's not like Shabazz all of a sudden flipped a switch yesterday and now knows how to play. How do you not give him minutes prior to this?

Very encouraging. No question he was the X-factor tonight in keeping us in the game and then helping to push us over the top. Great win.
