Blake Griffin becomes the first rookie since Allen Iverson (1996-97) to have multiple 40 point games. That's crazy.

3 straight freethrows missed, unreal.

Kobe doing an excellent job finding his open teammates. He has made some good decisions tonight.

Shannon Brown has played like [expletive] tonight.

Congrats to Rose for his first career triple double, the dude is a beast. I cant wait to see this team fully healthy. Bulls defense was suffocating in the third quarter, Grizzles went 4-17 and the game was history from that point on.

LOL, it's true. A sick pass to Pau off a spin move when he was triple teamed followed by a blow by dunk when there was atleast three Thunder players in the paint and Thabo blanketing him. You rarely see that kind of work by Kobe nowadays. That type of [expletive] gets my heart pumping.

Who said Kobe couldn't attack the rim with power anymore? That last minute or so reminded me of prime Kobe.

Artest should be playing the low post alot more, he's alot more effective there than on the perimeter.

We've had a couple terrible fastbreaks this quarter.

Well so much for Kyle Korvers shooting slump.

Didn't even laugh, that was terrible.

You cant step under the screen when defending Kyle Korver.

CJ Watson has to be one of the worst backup guards in the NBA. He's way too streaky as a shooter and he's a terrible facilitator. I don't think I've seen so many airballs in one half lol. This game is ridiculously sloppy.

Luol Deng has the hot hand. He and Rose have combined for 20 of Chicago's 25 points.

Rudy Gay needs to get more involved in Memphis' offense, he's way too passive thus far. He has been camping outside the three point line for a good part of the game. Asik has very low basketball IQ. He makes way too many bonehead plays.

I admire Chicago's intensity on defense, they get quality minutes from guys like Asik and Kurt Thomas. Chicago with a nice flow offensively thus far.

Eh. I still like Jersey Shore and Repo better.

You're a Clippers fan now?

He has been too busy trying to draw fouls, and in the process has turned the ball over a couple times. Just a really sloppy game from him. Edit: And just as I post this, he turns the ball over on a fastbreak when Denver had numbers.

Thought this way pretty sick. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QrAQoQwDH1Y&feature=player_embedded

San Antonio finishes the half on a huge run, hitting 14 consecutive shots at one point. Spurs went small with Parker-Hill-Neal, and it ended up paying off in a big way. Nene is terrible on defense, just wanted to throw that out there.

Nene has simply overpowered Duncan on a couple baskets early in the game. He has really come around offensively this season.

0-2 without Lebron this season, I find it hard to believe that they would be able to win 50 games with their current roster. Nice answers though, you're such a homer lol.

WOW.... Belichick's playcalling was terrible in the 4th quarter. I don't know what he was thinking by foregoing the fg and then onsiding when they had 2 timeouts left. On the other hand Rex Ryan did one hell of a job gameplanning against Brady. Jets deserved the win.
