So J.R. Smith really just shoved Lance Stephenson to the ground out of bounds and they got a double technical for it even though Stephenson did nothing.

NBA refs for ya...

I dislike Redick, but I respect his ability. He's aight.

Happy that Seattle is getting back a team. They never should have lost one. I hope they're renamed the SuperSonics. Great name.

Partially based since I might be moving to Seattle within the next few years. Probably adopt them as my 2nd team...maybe catch some games and such.

*After EJ announces that Inside the NBA will be broadcasting live from LA next week at the Heat vs. Lakers game*
Chuck: Why are we going to LA to see those damn bums play in person?
EJ: You don't want to see Heat play the Lakers?
Chuck: I want to see the Heat play, but I don't wanna see the Lakers play.

Lot of hype for that game, eh? Not sure why. Two scrub teams, imo.

They're only gonna be there next week to announce the ASG starters which are all pretty much locked up.

Only votes that were close in the last return are the starting center for the East between KG/Bosh and starting PG between CP3/Lin.

So I just looked at the 8 seed's record in the West the last three years. This has to be concerning for Laker fans.

2009-10: 50-32 (.610 Win% ... JFC that's a lot of wins for an 8 seed)
2010-11: 46-36 (.561)
2011-12: 36-40 (.545)

Even if we lowball the win%, the Laker need to get to 45 wins. 45-37. That means going 30-17 the rest of the way. Doable?

Perhaps. But I'd be a little concerned at this point. Better cheer on those Heat tonight vs Portland.

As for my team, can we please stop fucking losing games at home. 10-9 record at home. Awful.

With Meyers Leonard injured, Sasha Pavlovic is Portland's best player off the bench. JFC.

It's a shame because the Blazers have a great starting 5, one of the best in the NBA but have the worst bench in the NBA.

Batum just went Air Jordan.

Wow Pacers held Heat to 77 and Knicks to 76! I knowq Melo wasn't playing but that's pretty impressive. Doesn't Pacers have the 2nd best home record in the league?
