Newman

Pretty sure he was scared after getting blocked so many times in the first half. Credit to Favors. He was huge this game.

For sure, started his career in Phoenix, then became MVP of the league twice in his return. Just his personal accomplishment alone warrants his jersey getting retired.

See you later, New Jersey.

That's just crappy acting. It does disturb me in the sense that this occurred in such a close game (96-100, with 1:41 left in the game) at such a crucial time...if this happens during the playoffs and the referees make the wrong call then there will be a huge outrage from the fans.

I don't think they can get much for him...not when he has a glaring weakness in his game.

Ebanks would probably start in place of MWP, he did a nice job in the Thunder game.

This Memphis team can go far, very far.

Could the Magic be playing better with Big Baby than with Dwight?

Can't wait to see Philly in the first round. Should be an interesting match-up.

^ More like or more than? I'll be scared of Shawn Bradley if I see him IRL purely due to his height. And I'll be afraid of Oden cause he can flatten me.

If Wade got hurt after just three minutes and LeBron was in the active roster...surely Spolestra should have played the latter?

No Jason Kidd and probably no Derrick Rose...which means John Lucas III should be the Bulls' leading scorer again.

This Spurs team is crazy deep. They got Manu, Stephen Jackson, Neal and Boris Diaw coming off the bench while on any other night they can be starting and the team wouldn't even miss a beat.

I like this Hornets team when Gordon is playing.

wtf was Matt Barnes doing on that Gasol 3..lol.

Only T-Will look remotely excited out of all the Kings players

Source He will probably be their starting SF.

Durantula terrorizing the Wolves once again.

The Cavs recall Luke Harangody for this game (rested Jamison due to back-to-back-to-back games), he got the start and posted a double-double and he is going back to the D-League right after the game.

I know, but the truth is whenever Kobe is playing Bynum will be taking less shots. So what Kobe should be doing when he returns is taking the shots Metta and Barnes were taking in his absence and let Bynum continue to take the shots he was taking (which is ~20).

They should just give 20 shots to Bynum and 12 shots to Gasol every single game, with or without Kobe. Kobe can get his shot attempts from Matt Barnes and Metta.

Obviously, the main three teams worth looking at in the East right now would be Boston, Chicago and Miami. But in between Boston and the other two teams is a young Pacers team which improved its personnel from last season by acquiring Barbosa, David West, George Hill and Amundson. Add to them the improvement by Roy Hibbert and Granger, and this team can be dangerous. Thoughts?

Source Finally.

I can't put my finger on why Philly keeps on losing.

Maybe Celtics, but definitely not Orlando. A 50% focused Dwight Howard is absolutely no threat to the Heat.
