New Album & The Beginning of Basketball Season

[christoph]

I think I called this Boston win a couple days ago.

Nonetheless, good game and well deserved victory for the Celtics

As I said, the Celts are very anticyclic

As I said, the Celts are very anticyclic

If they get into the playoffs, they need to face a higher seed, not a lower seed, as they will always lose to the lower seed.

Huge win at home in OTC by the Sixers over Jazz. Embiid forces OT with a 3 at the buzzer and Tobias Harris carries them to the win with 9 points in OT

 

[Steve Williams]

Lakers again sans all the players mentioned last night as well as LeBron tonight.First game LeBron missed this year

Lakers give up an early 14 point lead and trail by 2 at the half

 

[WLVCA]

Hope Jared Dudley is in better shape than he looks.

He's finally gotten into the last two games but doesn't appear to be in NBA-ready physical condition.

 

[Steve Williams]

Lakers blow it on their final shot and lose 123-120

 

[Steve Williams]

Phoenix Suns all alone in 2nd place in the West

Lakers and Clippers have a lot of work to do after the All Star break

 

[WLVCA]

I see the Lakers and LeBron have adopted load management now.

I see the Lakers and LeBron have adopted load management now.

For the past several weeks except his is done in the game. He’s only playing 24-26 minutes per game

 

[WLVCA]

I thought he sat out the entire game last night against Sacramento.

It does makes sense to reduce his minutes if you can.

 

[WLVCA]

Clippers in Washington playing the Wizards tonight. Lead 61-54.

Marcus Morris out tonight due to concussion protocol

Paul George also out tonight as well.

 

[WLVCA]

Clippers choke again, lose to the Wizards 119-117

He did sit out that game vs the Kings but over the past 2 weeks his minutes in each game have been reduced to 24-26 minutes per game.

Clippers choke again, lose to the Wizards 119-117

The Wizzards are melding into a very good team and although their standing doesn't suggest much, they have been beating ebvery top tier team. Bradley Beal is an amazing scorer

 

[Steve Williams]

The Suns win again last night and are firmly in 2nd place in the west, 1 1/2 games ahead of the lakers and 2 1/2 games ahead of the Clippers

In fact Suns have the 2nd fewest losses in the league only 2 losses behind the Jazz

I said at the beginning of the season that the Lakers would be watching over their backs due to the parity in the league

Now wouldn't a Suns-Nets final be interesting. Would it be Chris Paul to finally get his ring or Harden finally getting his

Report: Blake Griffin agrees to buyout with Pistons, becomes unrestricted free agent

Griffin has reportedly drawn interest from most of the top playoff contenders.

My son had been pushing for the C's to get Blake even before this. I am not so sure.

 

[WLVCA]

Blake was always a favorite of mine during his time with the Clippers. Hope he latches on somewhere that works for him.

How's this for an all star break stat

Over the last 10 games Lakers are 3 and 7 and the Clippers are 4 and 6

Makes for a very competitive last half of the season

Gone is LeBron at the top of the Kia MVP ladder and Joel Embiid firmly entrenched at the top of the ladder

Jazz and Suns looking good.

Clippers fading with worst end of game stats in the NBA.

Didn't realize the Jazz were so hated until both Gobert and Mitchell were picked last by All Star captains. Wonder why that is...

Mike

There is just something not right with the Clipps and that statistic tends to prove it

On paper the Clipps have to be regarded as one of the best teams in the NBA but are faltering at the end of close games

I don't see Ballmer standing silently by at season end if the Clipps don't perform up to ecpectations

You know that IMO I am not a Lue fan for the Clipps coaching job. I just think he is being outcoached by smarter and better coaches
