2011/2012 NBA Regular Season

[Who]

Thabo Sefolosha is such a good role player. That man just knows how to win games.

High level defender / possession creator. 10 rebounds, 3 steals and a block for Thabo + he held Kobe Bryant to a 7-23 FGA and 4-5 FTA and 3 TOs night.

Horrible game from OKC. Well deserved loss.

[GreenFaith1819]

Asolutely no way that Durant-Westbrooke goes 14 for 56 again...most of those shots they missed were open shots.

Harden, before Whirlled Peas' attack, was 5 for 7.

Lakers fortunate to get this one.

Their downfall won't come until the playoffs, but I predict it will come.

Whoever it comes against (MEM, Spurs, OKC), they need to watch out, though. Seriously.

We've all seen how Lakers react when down (Bynum-Barea, Odom....Artest-Harden)...they will take it out on someone, unfortunately.

[Adelaide Celt]

Any update on James Harden's condition?

Sure hope Artest gets what's coming to him...

He was about to come back in the game, until he started complaining about a light headache.

We'll see what Stern and Co. do about this one.

This game makes me wonder if OKC is ready for prime time yet.  They've had a problem with blowing leads and considering they're neck and neck with San Antonio for the top seed this should have been an important game to them. 

Lakers don't scare me at all. 

[Celtics18]

At least the Knicks did us a favor by beating the Hawks today.  It's a long shot, but home court in the first round is definitely still in play.  We need the Hawks to lose one of their last two against the Mavs and the Clippers, and we need to win out against the Heat and the Bucks.

No matter who Doc decides to play, that Miami game coming up in a couple of days is still a big game. 

[Fafnir]

I think Oklahoma should be fairly happy with how they have fared against the Lakers today.

It has taken a 2-17 performance from Westbrook + Harden missing the whole second half ... just to give LA a chance at winning this game.

I think OKC should be very confident in their chances of beating LA in a seven game series.

The one thing I'd put on that is Westbrook has to figure out how to deal with Kobe defending him better than he has. It bothered him today and it bothered him two years ago.

The Lakers are lucky they were even in that game such BS phantom call by the ref on the Thabo steal, he was clearly wayyyy inside the line and could have put in a dagger

Meanwhile......

Spurs continue to kill everybody.

I feel pretty good, losing to them by only 1 point.

[Celtics18]

I'm a little bummed about the Rockets.  I liked that team.

His feet were in, but when he slapped the ball toward the basket it bounced on the line.  Most of the replays missed it because they thought the ref was calling Thabo out, not the ball.

Can't go 1-7 (or something like that) down the playoff stretch run.

[Who]

Kevin Durant has moved ahead of Kobe Bryant for the scoring title after yesterday's game. I'd like to see Kobe win the scoring title. This will probably be his last chance to get (another) one.

Durant and Kobe are currently tied with two scoring titles each. If Durant won, this would already be his third scoring title.

Jeez, Durant is still only 23 years old. Durant would have the next 8-12 years to rack up a few more of these things ... how many could he end up finishing with?

Michael Jordan is the All-Time leader with 10 scoring titles. Wilt is second with 7. Gervin and Iverson have 4 apiece tied in third place. By winning his third scoring title, Durant would be tied in 5th place ... at 23 years of age. Wow.
