Even though it was an ugly game (purely just from the sounds of it since I didn't watch or listen), this will bode well. I think it was a good chemistry builder with two starters getting into foul trouble, J Hoop being held somewhat in check (by our standards), the altitude factor, and by the sounds of it, not being able to stop Plouffe (sp), all while on the road. That's where team chemistry is really built IMO. Showed some of the other players what it's going to take to win this year. Pleasantly surprised with Theriot scoring that much while having to run the point, good sign.
