General game-day thoughts/comments

[Eirsej]

West just hit a game winner against OKC to extend their win streak to 9. Nice comeback coming from 15 down.

[tee-pane]

Raptors ended their 986 games with at least one three pointer made streak tonight.

[NovU]

27th loss in last 28 games, 17 in a row by the Cavaliers.

Next 4 against Boston, Denver, Orlando and Miami respectively. 3 of them away games. Lolz!

[rise]

They're going to win all four. What are their next games so I can see how long their winning streak will keep up?

[Cleveland wins]

Lol, who's worse last years' nets or this year's cavs? Any way, cavs, cavs, cavs, what a shame. One person controlled the whole team. Any way on a side note, i can't wait to see how Peja Stoyakovic going to do for the mavericks.

[Andrew]

I'd still give it to last year's Nets at this point.

[Doobie]

It's pathetic that the one win they had was against the Knicks.. If not the Cavs would possibly be on a 28 game losing streak right now.

[Rip32]

I don't know if I can see Antawn Jamison being on the Cavs at the trade deadline... and without him they could very well drop below last year's Nets.

Wade’s tinted goggles rejected by NBA for game

The NBA has rejected the tinted goggles that Miami Heat guard Dwyane Wade planned to wear for the start of Thursday’s game against the New York Knicks to protect his eyes from the bright lights as he recovers from a migraine headache.

Heat coach Erik Spoelstra says the league disallowed the glasses when they inspected them after Miami’s shootaround Thursday morning. The NBA said the tinting was too dark, giving Wade an unfair advantage because the opponent could not see his eyes.

The NBA: Where cracking down on the important stuff happens.

[NovU]

Lolz... In that case, Sam Cassell always had an unfair advantage.

[Doobie]

Knicks with a nice win against Miami. Landry Fields was all over the place as usual, 19/13/6 with a couple of key plays at the end of the game.

Knicks shot 10-33 from 3 though which has me a bit worried.

[Andrew]

Yeah that was a little ugly from an otherwise solid victory. They sure made them count when they needed them in the fourth though.

I disagree. Seeing what the opponent's eyes are doing is just one small facet of defense.

[Andrew]

I guess, but since when has the league cared about star players having an unfair advantage?

Seeing the glasses he ended up wearing during the game though makes me wonder just how dark the tinting of the ones he originally chose would've been.

[JaoSming]

Reminds me of the Bandaid stuff from the other year.

[Andrew]

Reminds me of the Bandaid stuff from the other year.

Now that was definitely overkill by the league.

[rise]

I didn't realize how good of a rebounder Mike Miller is. He's played 15 minutes and already has nine rebounds.

No Wade and no Bosh

[Stress Fracture]

What about T-Mac? Give him some love.

[Doobie]

Williams vs. Williams fight tonight in the NYK/ATL game.

[Phil89]

Westbrook triple-double against Wizards. (33 pts, 13 reb, 13 assts)

Thunder lead 120-115 with 1:47 left in second overtime period.

[kibaxx7]

That game by Westbrook was just flawless

Watching Celts-Suns... Gortat is killing everyone on sight.

[rise]

Millsap and Kirilenko combine for 57 points, 14 rebounds, and ELEVEN steals.

Westbrook triple-double

LeBron and T-Mac came real close to triple-doubles as well. LeBron with crazy points

[deihatein]

Cousins with a big game. My pick to be ROY but that will go to Griffin.

[JaoSming]

Oh Nathan....

Mr Robinson came tearing ass down the floor during the Celtics comeback run last night and threw up a 3 on 1 three....with momentum at the top of the key with 22 seconds on the shot clock.

"That may have been the worst shot in Celtics franchise history" ~Bill Walton, filling in for Tommy.


Of course its not on YouTube because of the fights.

[The X]

Gotta luv Bill Walton
