It's still early seeding wise, but who do you root for in this scenario? Like the Knicks don't matchup with the Bulls at all, but at this current pace Knicks could be on a collision course with Boston in a 2 - 7 matchup.
We matchup with Boston, except the last 5 minutes of games when Pierce has the damn ball.
I guess you gotta root Boston(wierd how that sounds).
Yea im rooting for Boston tonight and they are at home

i'm hoping for a grueling game that weakens both teams and contributes to a cumulative effect where they are running on fumes by the time we face them in the playoffs.
i'm thinking duran-barkley
I see Kobe shot the Lakers out of another victory last night and played horrible defense on Wade.
Actually Kobe and Nash got really hot. Howard at the line cost them the game. If the Lakers give the same defensive effort they win most games

Naaahh you don't get credit for what you do in the last 5-6min of a game. He had a horrific 3rd qrt and shot them out the game.
As I was saying the Lakers record when Kobe shoots more than 20FGA/gm throughout his career as a Laker is not as good as when he shoots less. It's a considerably lesser winning percentage. Funny thing is they were on a 2gm winning streak and guess how many FGA he took?
They were never out of the game. It was tied at 90 when howard started missing fts

Kobe finished 8-25fg now think about what you posted a couple posts back...he got hot late right.... that means at one point during the game he was like 2-19fg
You realize how bad that is and yet you want to site Howard missing free throws late because the game happened to be close?
He was 3 for 17. Ball should be in Nash's hands not Kobe's. Kobe is used to having the ball in his hands 100% of the time. No question that needs to change. Nash will get Howard, Pau and Kobe involved. But the game was right there for the Lakers to win. They played well defensively. 90-90 when Howard missed FT'a and the Lakers didn't score again losing 99-90. If the ball was in Kobe or Nash's hands instead of Howard they might've won

Dwight still trying to be Shaq. Damn shame!
Can't root for the Celts.
Im not rooting for or against most teams as I just believe the KNicks take care of business they make their own path to a good seeding.
Rockets vs Pacers. 2 different styles. Very interesting game. Harden still slumping. Missed layup and ft.
Asik. Please dunk the ball. He keeps missing layups.

I didn't watch the game but I saw that the Lakers also had 20 turnovers. Turnovers, 8-25 and missing free throws down the stretch doesn't usually result in victories. I really wish that game was on East Coast time.
yea they had 14 TO's at half time!
Still with all that, the game was 90-90 with under 2mins left and they went to Howard and he got fouled and couldn't hit FT's
Looks like TD lost his spot as backup PG
I love when the Nyets and their fans pump their fists after beating garbage teams. I wonder what they will say when they lose consecutive games to Atlanta

If Kobe shot better the Lakers might have had the lead like they had at halftime and maybe they don't go to Howard late as the Heat game planned that way later in the game. Making 5 shots from a 3-17fg performance prior to, while missing 3 more shots is not what I would call in any way shape of form making up for the overall chitty performance. Matter of fact a better way of looking at it, the Lakers were always in the game in spite of Kobe but the times they went to him 25 he shot like Ronnie Brewer.
Kobe is shooting 48% this year even better than Melo. Superstars have bad shooting nights. Bottomline is Lebron and Miami stepped up. They are unbeatable when Lebron takes over the game in that fashion. He did it in last years playoffs and this year they have Ray Allen
