2011/2012 NBA Regular Season

[Adelaide Celt]

Miami are too short-handed up front without Bosh. Lacking in size and able bodies. Overly reliant on Joel Anthony and Udonis Haslem.

Watching this game, I get the feeling Miami would trash LA if Bosh was in the lineup. The Lakers are simply beating up on a short-handed team today.

I completely forgot Bosh wasn't playing, no wonder Miami haven't really been in it all day. They ain't getting far with Juwan Howard as their first big off the bench.

[Lord of Mikawa]

Bosh is so important to Miami. I can't conceive them ever winning a championship without him.

Yup that was evident in both the Utah and lakers game... Getting troubled by the bigger teams.

does it make me a bad celtics fan to say i'm glad the Lakers beat the heat??

76ers are hanging with the bulls right now..

Wow, 55 points for Deron Williams.

I never would have thought of Deron scoring that much in a single game.

Yeah wow. It is against the worst team in the league though...

[Greenbean]

Derrick Rose is just awesome...

The guy doesnt force anything even though he probably could with all of that ability.

He's also pretty humble.

I feel really good about the NBA if guys like DRose and Kevin Durant are competing for championships.

This. Those guys are everything that's right about the NBA. There's no air of entitlement and they're not afraid to work hard to develop their craft.

I know a lot of people hate Lebron, but his talent and physical gifts are amazing.

Even though his team lost, Lebron did a remarkable job defending Pau Gasol today.

The fact is that what they do wont be enough against the heat at their best, which is everything thats wrong with the league.

He had a 50+ game while playing in Turkey. I wonder if he thought that the Bobcats were better or worse, than the competition he met there.

[PosImpos]

Kevin Love dominated Blake Griffin (again) tonight. Plus, the T-Wolves have a winning record.

Are there any arguments left against Love being one of the best players in the NBA, and probably the best PF there is?

Kevin Love dominated Blake Griffin (again) tonight.

Again? Hasn't Blake Griffin usually outplayed Kevin Love in the past?

I may be wrong that was my recollection of events.

Depends on the Flavor of the Day .

If you want polished, low-post offense and defense, I'd go with LaMarcus.

If you want low-post offense, good defense, deep range, and exceptional rebounding ability and tenacity, gotta have Love.

If you want Sportscenter highlights, go with Blake.
