Orlando sucks. Was joking about Portland's chances after the first quarter and only half-joking when I predicted Magic by 40. Whoops.

Don't you have to have built once in order to rebuild?

I don't know about that suspension that they handed out to Andre Miller, if they're gonna do that then, they probably should have called two fouls on Blake Griffin for shoving Miller twice during that game. But any way, the celtics are on a 9 game winning streak, and are 18-4 and am i right, they haven't lost to philedelphia since they got the big three?

Blake Griffin didn't shove Miller. He's just too strong. What was Andre going to do? Box him out? Shea...

They probably could've called loose ball fouls on those plays, but that's not something they do retroactively. Nothing was called, Miller didn't appreciate what happened and went a little too far in his retaliation, being way too obvious about what he was doing. He didn't give the league much of a choice.

Sloppy first half in the Lakers/Bulls game, but the Bulls did a nice job going on a run to close out the second quarter. Awesome up-and-under move by Rose.

Knicks 7 in a row. Amar'e 7 straight games with 30 points. Ties the Knicks franchise record for 7 most consecutive games with 30 points. To many close games against bad opponents, I have a bad feeling we are going to get creamed against Boston on Wednesday.

Greg Monroe is rebounding equally with Kevin Love tonight (14-16). I'm actually very satisfied with that.

Nice job by Rose in crunch time for the win over the Lakers, a blown free throw aside. Brewer with the biggest free throws of the night despite shooing 59% on the season.

Wanted: Coach willing to try new things without fear of angering his mediocre veteran players who, quite frankly, have given up on him and could care less.

Wanted: Power forward/center under the age of 36 willing to bang in the paint and occasionally play defense. Possibly make a dunk and play with a young big man who can pass.

Wanted: Two Shakeweights; willing to exchange Richard Hamilton and Tayshaun Prince for slightly used weights.

I can't fucking believe Rich Cho traded Bayless. He'd be our best player if he still played for the Blazers. Hornets were dumb enough to trade both Bayless and Peja's valuable expiring for Jarrett Jack, who has been turrible this season.

Miss you B-Rex!

My LolCats are on a roll!

We were eight down at the beginning of 3rd quarter, now we're one up!!


In my other fact-based opinion-related thoughts:

Shannon Brown should start at the 2 for the Lakers. :lol:

Watched Magic VS Denver game. Makes me wonder if Dwight's happy there in Orlando. With Vujacic gone to the Nets, Orlando is the team with highest payroll. Blame second highest paid player, Rashad.
