That was a great game. Lawson was amazing in the 4th quarter.

Lawson's ankle is 100%, Galinari should be back any day now (maybe tonight), and Wilson Chandler is expected to join the Nuggets pretty soon as well. That team should start rolling again.

Wade sucked and Bosh didn't play but I'm still disappointed in Miami's performance yesterday. They couldn't hit any shots. Haslem needs to get his **** together. He used to be money on that mid range jumper but he is really struggling this season.

I took a look at it

Howard for Noah/Gibson/Watson + picks would work under cap

Magic would never do it though

I do all the time.

Nash for Felton and Batum works. It just works.

Indiana and Portland would both be a good fit for Nash

What a game between Sac and Den. Sac up 3 with time running down and Marcus Thornton inexplicably fouls Afflalo during his shot. Hits all 3. Then with OT winding down, score 116-116, Ty Lawson makes a great shot to win the game.

Now the Kings have a 9-game home stand. I got tickets to the Memphis game on the 20th. Face value 82.50 for 25 on Stubhub.

Felton is the weirdest PG in the NBA. He's the definition of average starter, but everytime his team starts to have success, he needs to be upgraded. Denver, now Portland. Poor guy.

I think Orlando will push hard for Nash.

It will be around Nash + Childress for Nelson + picks.

The problem is Orlando needs a partner to take on J-Rich (I believe Redick is the starting SG for the Magic) for nothing much.

Oh and I don't understand why Boston wants to trade Rondo. Someone explain?

It started off great, but then something happened and he just lost the way. Downgrade from Andre Miller. But it's an expiring deal. Batum is the stronger piece. But Portland needs to find a way to get Elliot Williams on the court more.

ikr?

although id say 2 months is good considering no training camp, very few practices with a totally new coach and system + new players. not bad at all.

not planning any parades though, skeptical they can get past OKC...not worried about anyone else in the West never was. the title is not won in December or January so they are still on a good timeline to get better acclimated to Mike Brown who imo was a fabulous hire even though most laker fans dismiss him.

Isaiah Thomas literally stole a win from NO tonight. NO up 98-97 with 10 seconds left, he steals the inbound pass and hits Salmons for the winning shot.

Good stuff.

Minnesota Timberwolves rookie point guard Ricky Rubio will have an MRI on his left knee Saturday morning amid fears he tore his anterior cruciate ligament, a league source told Yahoo! Sports.

“Possible ACL,” the source briefed on Rubio’s condition said. “We’ll know more after the MRI. … There’s a lot of worry right now.”
http://sports.yahoo.com/nba/news?slu...ury_nba_030912

That really sucks if it actually is a torn ACL. I'm not a Wolves fan but I love watching Rubio play.

Minneapolis is one of the most cursed sports cities, safe to say.

Kings dominated the Mavs last night. One thing that really stood out was how slow the Mavs are.
