White of the Night: Jose Barea


Two solid games in a row for JJ Barea, earning the coveted White of the Night as he got even better in his second start. Barea's 18 shots highlights my oft-repeated point: White SGs take note -- shoot like you belong, if you want to stay on the floor.

The experiments continue in Chicago, with Aaron Gray getting the start, and ripping down 9 boards in his 21 min.

The Birdman Andersen continues to produce miracles in ridiculously few minutes, blocking 4 shots in his 18 minutes, to go with 8 points (on 4 shots) and 5 boards.

Marc Gasol responds to his benching with one of his best games of the season.
