Things noticed in the first half:

1. Parker picking right up where he left off in the Finals.
2. Elson looking great, very aggressive. I expect to see a lot of improvement from him this year and think he'll be taking minutes away from Oberto.
3. Darius Washington >>> Beno (and Jacque Vaughn)
4. No minutes for Udoka?

Good points. Any thoughts on Portland? I was pretty suprised, I think they could be a decent team in a couple of years. They run the ball well, can score, and have done pretty well with responding to two or three SA runs. Especially at the end of both of the first two quarters
