Ankle sprains just need rest. We were playing him meaningless minutes which means he was probably practicing too.

Hopefully he's resting until the MSU game.

Frustrating that we don't get home court advantage with the refs.  Horford should be shooting two right now.

Because we're playing with MUCH better energy on the defensive end. It took us awhile but we're starting to get back into the flow. Burke is much more active at the point on defense and our rotations are lightyears better than they were at the beginning of the game when we were giving Richardson wide open looks at the basket.
