It certainly is on paper. Warriors may have played their worst half all year in the opening 24 minutes.

Scratch that. Not worst half. Worst game. Who knew the Lakers had it in them?

San Antonio has to love this. They have really gotten very little publicity yet are on pace for a 70 win season. They also still have 3 games vs Golden State.

The degree of predictability found in these NBA games is astounding. The game fell right on the predicted point-spread.

At what point do these guys run out of gas? Unless they have an endless supply?

I think it could be happening right now. They looked awful yesterday against the Lakers. Many of the starters were pulled early. So they come out focused and blow out Orlando, right?

Wrong. They led by as many as 18 points but it was a 2 point game at 111-109 with a minute to play. 24 turnovers.....67 second half points allowed to a 27-35 Orlando team. The Spurs are in the garden spot, just sitting off the leader...

So Chris Paul shoved his fist in KD's groin tonight. Certainly looked intentional and would only be like the 873rd time he has done it to someone. Such a punk ass.

He is a repeat offender, why doesn't he ever get suspended, could it be because he is the pres of the union?

Thought you might be interested in this video gallery of a few of CP3's nutshots. After what happened to Ginobli, you would think the league would start nailing guys for this, but that superstar thing is powerful. Most bizarre is the OKC announcer saying, 'Looks like KD really hurt himself'.

I've seen them all. Paul is a small guy that plays tough, but he goes too far sometimes into the "dirty" area, not just his groin shots. He is a great player (though overrated IMO) and doesn't need to do that stuff.

PS...That isn't the OKC announcer. It was a national game, ESPN.

Meaningless?

The absence of Iguodala, Bogut, and Ezeli has put pretty much of a damper on my interest in tonight's Spurs/GSW (Spurs -4.5). Also, in another league scheduling blunder, this is their third road game in four nights. Assume Pop will only be playing Big 3 as limited an amount of minutes as possible. Looking for LMA to have a big night after screwing up vs. GSW last game. If a shorthanded GSW is able to pull this out though, they are the greatest team of all time.

Down 30-7 in the second quarter against the Spurs in Charlotte, the Hornets have a LINSANITY rally, winning 91-88 with Lin scoring 29 points, 15 in the 4th quarter.....It's starting to finally look good in Charlotte, which now stands at 40-30.
