Durant out. Wonder his shoulder injury is the same as Melo's and Paul's.

lol, this was way before hitler,

came across this, look at the barbells in the back, all 2 inch thickness at the handle,

the 1" bar made lifting easier and more accessible but it's funny because it really made strength athletes weaker in the long run by reducing the importance of hand strength,

Rubio v. Curry is getting interesting. Curry has the upper hand but watching Rubio . . . I wish he knew how to shoot and I'd love to seem him play in, say, San Antonio.

Kings without Gay and Cousins up against the Pacers by 5 in the fourth

Isiah Thomas is a beast. So clutch.

Pacers lose to Kings without Gay or Cousins playing.

Man George gets the same call that he got on Shump. If a feather brushes against a pacer in the final seconds it is a foul

Watching Isiah Thomas, have to think that the Knicks should have signed Bobby brown over Beno. Also, knicks need to pursue Pierre jackson

Kings are getting screwed with calls. No fouls no matter what but a king gestures towards a pacer and it is a foul. Nba is too obvious in who they want to win.

Parsons sets a nba record with the most 3s scored in a half with 10. How many teams have a third scorer that can get you 30 twice in a week? Portland, Miami, Clips, Houston and maybe the Warriors with Iggy but I don't think he has been scoring like that this year. Parsons needs to get paid.

He was breathing all over George. Obviously that's going to throw off anyone's shot. To have the composure to collect himself and still sink the shot in spite of that is the sign of a true star.

*I actually do like Paul George. Very good player. But I don't understand for the life of me why he is getting LeBron type treatment.

The Pacers essentially were given two wins in this way. Also, in the Knicks game Melo was 'breathed on' a lot harder in that last possession/no call in regulation.

Agree- I'm so tired of this BS. Paul George is a great player- he doesn't need the ref's to cheat for him. NBA is a joke.

Lin seems to be having a hard time covering Courtney Lee.

Terrence Ross with 51 pts and 9 rebounds

Should we target him with a 30m salary minus 11pts for talents as well?

Ross truly replacing Rudy Gay. Back to 9 and 5 next game.

Was just looking at standings. I can't believe Nets are 19-22. I really thought they were dead in the water. They've had nice little revival. Gotta think they win the division now. Also shocked Hawks have kept it together after losing Horford.

Nets look really good. Bropez is their best player but going small with garnett at center and pierce at the 4 has really helped them. Anderson was a really underrated signing. He killed the knicks last year and fits with a line up of stars. Teletovic and AK47 have been playing really well as has blatche. The Nets are so deep and have a ton of height. I don't think Evans is even playing for them right now.

It was going to take time for them to build chemistry
Deron Williams is the glue to the puzzle and Lopez was suppose to be their #1 option
However, I think Livingston is their most under rated signing for DEF and ability to run/facilitate

AK47 is also more of a PF/C at his age with his length and shot blocking ability that they missed
Thing is they are stock piled at the PF/C with Teletevic an undersized stretch PF/C as well which would benefit from wide open shots if they continue to push the ball more
Joe Johnson is much slower than he once was but he is very clutch, despite not worthy of his salary either
Blatche is talented but misses consistency

Like the Knick's they need to be able to PUSH THE BALL more and Kidd realizes that because they lack speed, however, Woodson doesn't seem to emphasize pushing the ball and is happy with Melo bringing up to ball half the times, outside of Felton sometimes pushing when he can and Iman pushing whenever he can but he needs to work on his handle
