Al came back from injury and was impressive in the loss to Orlando. It was almost like he never was injured (wink wink).
Al is motivated to keep getting better and better and is going to play hard even if the games don't really matter.

Injury Report
Payton - calf

Player to Watch

Antoine is obviously bitter against his old team and would love nothing better than to have a huge night against them.

Key Matchup
vs
Perk has been playing well of late since his plantar fasciitis has improved. He has played Shaq very well in the past.

Notes: It was our win against the Heat last year that cost us a spot in the draft. This year, there are no consequences either way. Wade is hurting and Shaq is getting old. They may hold them back to be ready for the playoffs but both are scheduled to play as of now.

yeah, gotcha on the wink
Al shows up right after the C's lock up 2nd last.

"it's all in the timing" famous quote by moi

HAHAHAHA, love the Al Jefferson comments!
