Congratulations. Not only did you just see the best game in the NBA this entire season in person, but you just witnessed the best 3 pt shooting display in NBA history.

Double Dwight, and the best 3 pt shooters in the league will destroy you. Don't double Dwight, and he goes for 40.

It's a no-win situation.

Forget football. Let's get these playoffs started.:) I hope you had a blast, even in spite of the final score. Wow, what an electric game.

You know you're in trouble when Howard makes 4 consecutive free throws. :)

I'd love to tell you that I was surprised by what happened but I can't. I've seen that movie before. Far too many times now.

Apparently defending Jason Richardson behind the three point line is not a priority. I counted only once when his shot was contested in the second half, even when he was on a four of five streak.

Hey, at least the traffic out of that banana republic was a repulsive nightmare, just like the team's second-half performance. Ugh.

Well, that didn't last long. Your 16 of 29 just got passed by SA's 17 of 28. I hope Duke isn't on the upcoming schedule.

There are few guarantees in life, but, the likelihood of Dwayne Wade's defensive assignment leading their team in scoring each night is pretty close. All NBA Defensive Team my ass.
 
The West is getting a little interesting. SA looks like they are for real. Then you have the Lakers. And OKC rocks too. These might be the best playoffs in a long, long time in the NBA.
 
We just got that same package for the Bulls game tomorrow afternoon. Another chance to see a good NBA team in action.
 
Taking my ten year old daughter to see the Wizards/Clippers tonight. Have terrible seats, but I think she will enjoy it.

Then going back Monday night to see the Wiz/Thunder game. Very much looking forward to Blake and Durant back to back.

Had a great night with my ten year old. We went to the National Gallery for a couple of hours, had dinner in Chinatown, then I took her to her first NBA games, Wiz vs. clippers. Wiz decided against showing up apparently, though Wall did have 25+ which was fun. Griffin only played the first three quarters, but had one hiis trademark slams that sent the home crowd into a tizzy.

Wall is terrific. If they can find some players to put around him who actually give a crap, WAS could be good in a couple of years.

Payback is a bitch.

Heat have taken their adversity, embraced it, and come out better for it. Three impressive team victories in a row now.
 
Huge win for the Heat. And the Celtics fans are going off on Ainge for trading Perkins. They look soft.
 
They should. Penny wise, pound foolish. But, hey, Shaq & Jermaine will soon be back to make a difference. Won't they?

:no:
 
Saw the Thunder demolish the Wiz tonight. I'm a believer. Durant is amazing. Westbrook is sensational, just abused John Wall all game long. The West may be more fun than people think this year...

The Thunder are a serious threat.

And the Magic blow hard. Pathetic second half effort tonight, after dominating the first. Great game by Bynum.

In April both will be back.

Shaq's lost 40-50 lbs working out with a personal trainer at his gym in Orlando.

JO has been working out doing individual drills for a couple of weeks now.
 
I don't doubt they will be back. I doubt they will make a difference. Especially Jermaine. He retired years ago but didn't notify anyone. I can only hope that he gets 15-20 minutes a game.
 
Nice game by the Thunder last night. Surprised no one else commented on it. Durant is just awesome, he was abusing LeBron late.

Durant is as smooth as smooth gets. Heat couldn't buy a basket outside of the paint.
 
This magic team is starting to peak at the right time. Dwight is crazy good, hedo looks like he did two years ago, and gibert is even starting to roll.

I felt bad for amare tonight. Dwight just owned him over and over.

Dwight is a monster. And Stan Van, as obnoxious as he is, is right. The media has already decided Rose is MVP. Not that he hasn't played out of this world, but we should wait to see who closes best. If the Bulls have the 1 seed, it should probably be Rose. But if they fade at all, Dwight should be back in the conversation for sure.
