New Album & The Beginning of Basketball Season

[steve williams]

Big news is Denver finally back to winning ways as they beat the Nets whereas the Suns on the road lose to OKC..

It seems that the difference now is every game counts as no teams spot has been etched in stone. In the WC 3.5 games separates the 4 spot from the 10 spot

Here's a flash....GSW ended their 11 game winless road streak with a win at Houston last night It's been a tough year all around for the Warriors as the season started with the Draymond punch and ended with Wiggins and blotches of absence from Steph and Klay

Sad indeed. I grew up watching his Knicks.

I think the George/Leonard era in LA has been a bust between recurrent injuries to both players and as Ive said, I'm just not a Lue fan as Coach so Im betting there will be changes if they crap out again this year. Ballmer is getting impatient

Sad indeed. I grew up watching his Knicks.

Me too. I remember him well. Back in the glory days for the Knicks

Talking about the Knicks, it's been like 50 years the last they won a title. For a big market city, that's a very long drought.

It keeps Spike Lee on the sideline as a perennial supporter

I enjoy watching the rise of the Kings this year and Brown could be COTY but last night at home was a reality check for the Kings as they got clobbered by the Celtics. Good to see the Celtics back in their groove

Robert Williams back from injury. Immediate contribution , 7 rebounds and 5 fouls. Means protecting the shaded area.

at home to the Suns, the Lakers opened a 12 point lead after trailing by 10 however Lakers still have no idea how to play defense and at end of 3rd

Lakers lead shrinks to 3...88-85

 

[steve williams]

GSW wins their 2nd in the row this time at Dallas

Yeah Baby, we are coming

 

[steve williams]

The big news for me was the Lakers -Suns where the Lakers played a great game after allowing the Suns to come within one point, along came D'Angelo Russell who made some great shots and the Lakers sans LeBroon beat the Suns (sans KD) 122-111

Lakers remain in 10th tied now with Dallas and only 2.5 games behind the Suns who are in 4th. What a gridlock and with only 10 games left to play, the final standings probably won't be determined to the last day of the schedule

 

[steve williams]

Devastating to the Clippers as Paul George with a badly sprained knee will be out at least 2-3 weeks before being re evaluated. Clipps can kiss this one goodbye as well

 

[steve williams]

And her's the real stat to show how close the standings are.....only 7 teams in the East and 6 in the west have a winning average above .500

That is an amazing stat showing just how close the league has reach in parity as it seems on any given day any team can beat any other team.

 

[steve williams]

It's even tighter in the west today

The game difference between 4th place Phoenix and 12th place Utah is all of 3 games!!

Every game now is a must win
