You know what's stupid, the fact that Boozer has to grab the ball after EVERY free throw. Annoys the shit out of me.

Wolves-Rockets right now is totally out of control

Love...my guy...but a stomp to the chest of Scola while he was down, totally uncalled for.

technicals are flying all over the place

i wouldn't be surprised if Love gets fined and/or suspended for that

Kyrie Irving might be better than Rubio. He's really damn good for a rookie. Cleveland played great defense down the stretch to beat Dallas tonight.

kids involved in sports broadcasts deserves a DB thread

watching the Heat-Raptors game. First they have some high school kids thats related to someone sit in for almost an entire quarter in the first half....trying to sound "professional". then the sideline reporter, Jason Jackson- who's an idiot to begin with- has his kid with for sideline reports and for the halftime show. if that wasn't enough there's some "kid producer" they have that while the announcers are talking you keep hearing mumbling things every few seconds. all these people deserve to die

wtf is up with abc not airing a national game during the day?!?! there's like 48 hours of superbowl coverage on NBC and shit, so you figure with all these cats showing up to parties and shit if you had a nice proper game on from 2:30-5 you'd KILL on the fucking ratings ,then people could pop over and watch the superbowl by 5:30...

is it some un/written agreement between the NBA and NFL to not step on each other's toes or something?!?! the nfl aint mind scheduling primetime games on christmas night when it comes up, which is traditionally the NBA's stomping grounds, so like, wtf..... foreal, there aint shit on tv right now xcept that dumbass superbowl pregame so you figure some heat/thunder type game would clean up on ratings today... but what do i know?

_________________

they normally do...i'm surprised they don't

NBA TV had Celtics-Grizz and there's Heat-Raptors which has actually been a decent game but not national obviously

i agree you'd think ABC would have had a decent game at 2:30

Bynum with 20-20 in a loss to Philly. Considering how many great performances are wasted by him already this season I gotta think it lies on Kobe to fix the perimeter game.

Aldridge unstoppable.

One of the better draft picks by the Bulls.

Anyone catch that goaltending call on Aldridge at the end of regulation last night? Just a horrible officiating call. One of those calls that is easily recognizable in real time and replay. Bad break for the Blazers.

IMU might not be that far off on that triple double...8 assists in just the 1st quarter for Rubio. along with 3 rebounds and 2 steals

also the Wolves may have surpassed the Pacers as white basketball mecca- Love, Pekovic, Rubio, Barea, Ridnour, Brad Miller, Darko.

Barea and Rubio aren't white. They're Hispanic.

My girlfriend read that and started her whole "Puerto Rican Chiquita Banana crazy" rant about how Barea and Rubio aren't white.

is she Puerto Rican?

i actually think Rubio has a decent shot at some point in his career of getting a quadruple double

he'd probably miss it with points though

I'm sure he won't have as many Kidd double-doubles as Kidd does though.

interesting point...Gortat can actually hit a mid range jumper too

I'm pretty convinced for the most part Van Gundy blows

Derrick Williams with a huge 3 with the game tied under a minute to go....played pretty well in Love's absence

no one on the Wolves can hit a FT though apparently

Am I the only one who thinks Chauncey's injury isn't a big deal for the Clippers? I'm not sure he's better than Mo or Foye at this point and Eric Bledsoe needs to play more anyway.

Jeremy Lin just tomahawked one. Wow...

Orlando shot 42 three-pointers in their win over Miami tonight.

I'm officially on the Linsanity bandwagon.

Parker drops 37 in a Spurs road win at Philly. That teams gonna be a tough out if Ginobli comes back at 100%.

Dirk's coming out aggressive in the 2nd half going to the rim, hitting the catch and shoot, and a pretty post fadeaway. Why the hell hasn't this been on display all season?
