Actually, i was wrong. It's actually 16-3. Not sure where the extra game came from. Still impressive, especially considering how many of these were on the road AND missing key players (First 4 are from last season):

W@ Clippers - Without Chauncey
W@ Minny - Without Chauncey, Rip, AND Sheed!
W@ Orlando (playoffs) - Without Chauncey
Wvs. Orlando (playoffs) - Without Chauncey
W@ Charlotte - Without Chauncey/AI
W@ Toronto - Without Chauncey/AI
W@ Milwaukee - Without Rip
Wvs. Orlando - Without Rip
Wvs. Jersey - Without Rip, Dice, and 1/2 game for Sheed
Wvs. Sac - Without Rip, Sheed, AND Dice

10-0 when we're missing at least 1 all-star with Stuckey starting (6 on the road, 2 in the playoffs). Kind of a strange stat.

Boy do "We" own Orlando.

in all seriousness, when stuckey is agressive and attacking his defender, he is a great player. that is part of why we win those games; with those other guys missing he doesn't shy away from asseting himself, which he doesn't do often enough when we have everybody in the lineup.

^ I think I get what you are saying there.

Well, I think Stuckey attacking his man takes him out of the game as much ait does enhance Stuckey's impact.

Beno Udrih always kills us. Stuckey had him in his pocket all night and never let him out.

Hunh? Udrih's only had one really good game against us. He couldn't get off the Spurs bench to give TP a breather without being destroyed.

He's lit us up ever since he joined sacramento.

Yeah, last year he put a hurtin' on Chauncey both games and Glenn wouldn't shut up abou him which is why his "I only mentioned him" line is a joke. Pretty sure he even had a Beno avatar/sig combo for a while.

This is false, at least the sig/av part for sure, and I think the other part, too.

I looked this one up. Chauncey scored 28 points to Udrih's 12 in one of those games. :) It was Mike Bibby who lit us up in one of the games, kinda like he did in the Hawks game this year.

35 points in 2 games at 70% shooting.
