Pretty good half a basketball. The inside game should be there all night for the C's.

This is NBA basketball at it's best. Great plays left and right.

Because of the time difference (and my 19 month old son), I have to pick which games I want to watch. I'm glad I picked this one.

What a game!  This calls for cracking a Belgian  

And ugh, I can't believe I sort of have to root for the Lakers.  Probably moot by now though.  Lakers are really looking creaky since Bynum went out.

Our chances are astronomically better if Sheed plays every game like he did in this first half. But, the sad thing is that his fg% drops by about 17% from the first half to the second half based on an NBA.com article I saw.

I'll take 83% thank you

[lon3lytoaster]

Just got online, and just checked out the box score, and it said Sheed had 10 pts and 0 3pt attempts?!?!?!......Is this a misprint?? or is Sheed doing damage down on the blocks?

Big time. He's scoring at will!

Rasheed Wallace is on pace to cure Cancer, that is how well he is playing.

I lol'd

And Kobe's +/- against the Hawks was just minus 15.  Discuss.   

Love seeing him struggle, but I'd be fine if he went for 50 in a win tonight. Doesn't look like that will come close to happening. Atlanta's killer at home.

Westbrook dominated Rondo those first 6 minutes but thereafter, Rondo got the best of him. What an outstanding match up of two of the absolute best young PGs in the game.

[Neurotic Guy]

That as one great half.  
In continuing the tradition of hoping against hope -- I am hoping to see the C's prove that they can play 4 quarters of good ball against a quality opponent.  Another great test upcoming with recent history not in their favor.  But it is games like this that will occur night in/night out in the playoffs and they'll have to play a full 48.

One? Tsk tsk.

Yes. He was tearing it up before some shady calls got him in foul trouble.

Wow!!! (wish i could see it) Thanks

Kobe sucks 

[makaveli]

Missed most part of the game so far, WOW Paul is playing, very surprised, nice game so far, let's bring the heat in the 3rd qtr  

[2short]

quick thoughts:
rondo move near the end to get the layup was unreal
daniels nice d
sheed nice game (so far)
kg i've been watching and his knee is looking more & more mobile

sidenote: i really like ok, nice looking young team they need an agile shot blocker but look out for them next year, durant is smmoooth ice man like

Outside of his solid defense, he was 5 for 5 on Offense... all of which were beautiful post plays.  He's probably the only player on this team who is above average in the post.

The Atlanta Constitution today ran an article that visiting teams are treated so well by Atlanta fans that the team feels like they aren't really the home team.  Waaaaahhhhh!

Still, I can't do it.  I am rooting against the Lakers.  Both nature and nurture compel me.
