Alec Burks would like to have a word.

Seriously though, we could use more punch in the 4th.

When I typed that, I guess was thinking about the two recent losses to Phoenix in which we simply got destroyed in the fourth quarter after leading by double digits. Under Thibs, we've made the transition into an above average team. We'll approach elite status when we learn to consistently close against upper-tier teams IMO.

Every game seems like a Big Win at this point of the season, in fact every game is getting bigger and bigger right up until the end of the season

It might not matter anymore today since we won but if us the Heat and the Hawks are in a 3 way tie we lose. In a two way tie we win vs the hawks and lose vs the Heat. In the event of a 3 way tie the division leader wins. So the hawks would be 4 because they have tie breaker over Heat. Heat would be 5 since they have tie breaker over us and we will get 6.

At this point we can say Frank needs a good therapist to inject some FIVB furor and offensive confidence into him?
