    I don't know if I've ever seen anything quite like this. There are the obvious long-term injuries: Taylor and Rice. There is Walt Williams on the IR. Francis was out with the foot injury and is still out off and on with migraines. Cato has missed some time and is out with the flu. Kenny Thomas has missed a few games for injury and suspension. Mobley has been hurt this season.

    Tonight, we lose Cato to the flu. Norris can barely play because of the flu. Willis is gone on personal business and Thomas has to leave with a tight calf muscle. Francis played with a migraine.

    This is just freakin' crazy!

    Mobley just told Lisa Malosky that he was dizzy all day today and didn't go to shoot around. May they all should just be quarantined!

    Makes the win all the more amazing. When you shoot over 60% good things usually happen. This team has struggled with shooting all year, which has been a huge surprise. I expected shooting to be one of our strong points this year. Like tonight.:)

    KT schooling Malone in the first half is never a bad thing!
