Watching Z-bo and Marc Gasol just destroy the clippers physically...

Its a beautiful thing.
Ooh, didn't realize they were playing. Must see.

Memphis defense making the clippers look completely toothless.

Funny thing is that TA didn't even play that game. Imagine how worse it would've been with him draped all over CP3.

Glen Davis playing like a Grown Man over the last few games.....averaging 21.8 pts, 11.3 rebs in less than 36 min. He's keeping ORL competitive with Dwight being out.

The man has had family members pass recently, he's dealt with the Dwightmare stuff......glad to see him doing well.

Glen "Grown Man" Davis.

Good for him. Despite all his antics, it's really hard not to like him. It's not like he's Bill Laimbeer or "Metta World Peace" out there.

Wow this could be one of those snake-bitten injury years for the Bulls.

I'm certainly not wishing injury on ANY player, but I find it interesting that it seems as if we're not the only ones suffering with injuries.

DWade in MIA...now DRose?

Hopefully we can get Pietrus back and make a good, healthy run the next two-three months.

I was a little riled up last night after watching the Heat flop in the 4th quarter (don't remember who, but one was against Steamboat and one attempted on a Bass back-down).  Felt a little better though after watching this clip (and the W!).

Saw this on truehoop.  One of the worst calls i've seen all year.

I wonder if New York would be better off bringing Amare off the bench as a sixth man when he returns rather than moving right back into the starting lineup.

I suppose there is not much need to bring Amare off the bench if Jeremy Lin isn't going to be available but, if Lin were to play (not 100% but I think he is expected to miss the first round which would make it very unlikely NY survives that series), I like that rotation more for NY than starting Amare. Give Lin and Melo more touches to begin the game and let Amare be more of a focal point when he comes into the sction.

lin is a very good pick and roll player, Amare has become a multi all-star player because of his pick and roll ability. To me it makes no sense to seperate Lin and Amare, their skills are perfect for each other. Plus I don't see a max player in NYC(or anywhere else) coming off the bench, not going to happen and it shouldn't.

By the way I think Lin is out past the 1st round and will likely be very rusty if he comes back at all this year.

That was the makeup call for this one they didn't give him here.

OK...with 11:15 left in the 4th qtr, Andrew Bynum is OUTREBOUNDING the ENTIRE Spurs TEAM - 25 to 24... :o :o

I'm convinced that the San Antonio Spurs will get demolished if they happen to play the Lakers or MEM in the 1st round.

Clips or OKC? They have a shot.

You get the feeling that the Clippers will always beat the Thunder if they can just keep the scores close in the fourth quarter ... that Chris Paul's decision making and poise down the stretch is that much better than Russell Westbrook's and the Thunder's streaky offense.

Andrew Bynum finished with 30 rebounds. Wow.

The Lakers out-rebounded San Antonio 60-33. A -27 rebounding differential, yeah, that'll do it.

I think that Bynum is steadily closing the gap between him and Dwight, to be honest.

I'd love for the refs to just let them play next time they battle.

And for Kobe to let Drew play, too.

Classic big man battles just don't happen enough nowadays.

Westzbrook will be scary if he ever figures out how to truly facilitate.

Seeing Drew rip frontlines apart makes me appreciate KG even more.

At least KG kept Drew to pedestrian stats.

Lakers beat us, but Drew didn't break any records.

I bet Tim Duncan is sore after this one.

Wow.
