GSW beats OKC -
Durant rolls ankle at the end of the first half - BUT- became the 1st player since the ABA-NBA merger (1976) to score at least 30 points while playing fewer than 20 minutes. |

As much as i hate OKC, Durant is one of the best scorers to ever play the game. It's really insane how good he can be without doing anything that different.

Rockets reportedly closing a deal, sending Troy Daniels to Minnesota for Corey Brewer. Ronny Turiaf likely going to a third team (who I have to believe has got to be Philadelphia).

Houston needed a SF, and they won't find a better one without giving up a significant piece. Corey's lack of a reliable jumper is a break from the Rocket's recent history of surrounding Harden/Howard with shooters, but he'll bring energy to the second unit and help their transition game.

Very good trade for Houston. I think highly of Brewer.

Remember when Billy King gave up the #6 aka Lillard for a few months of Gerald Wallace rental, including the pressure to re-sign him after giving away the pic?
How this guy has still a job... |

Yeah...but this was probably the worst trade of the past five years...giving away this pick so you can pay Deron and Crash a combined 140 Million...

Ariza is shooting 32% from the field and 30% from three for December. You'd think that was a slump until you saw that those weren't far off from his season stats.

@bobbykaralla: The mighty Warriors, at 22-3, on pace for 72 wins, are just 4.5 games ahead of 6th place.
Damn, the West is STACKED.

Just unbelievable.

Wow, Josh Smith was turrible last night, and Ariza must have the longest shooting slump in NBA history.

So at which point would Houston have to forfeit the game for the broken rim? Looks like they have it figured out now, but the game was interrupted for over half an hour now.
Also, Dirk is great: Zach Lowe @ZachLowe_NBA · 16 Min. Vor 16 Minuten They had a guy bring out a ladder and a tape measure and everything. And of course Dirk was correct about the rim being off. So funny. 0 Antworten 142 Retweets 172 Favoriten Zach Lowe @ZachLowe_NBA · 17 Min. Vor 17 Minuten In DAL@WAS earlier this year, Dirk alerted Wiz 1 rim might be a tad off. Why? He was missing too many warmup Js. They checked, he was right |

Having seen quite a few Rockets games this season (the vast majority of my college buds grew up in the H and are Rockets fans) I don't see how they make much noise in the playoffs. They lack efficiency on offense and consistent play from their role players. Harden needs calls to make up for the fact he's not really shooting that well. Their one saving grace may be lockdown D but given how poor their offense is looking I think they get eliminated in the 1st round.

Seriously! 36% for the season. Ariza has been abysmal on offense, yet Rockets fan still believe he's been a net positive due to his contributions on defense.

Man houston fans are amazing. To have a player like harden who gets ridiculous calls, the fans and the players really do whine about the reffing. Obvious crap even after they see it on the monitor.

It looks like the mavs dodged two bullets with plan powder. Deron williams comimg off the bench and dwight howard looks useless.

OKC attempted 49 freethrows and made 44 of them for 89.8% PHX FTA 29 of 35 Oh - and way to go Scott Brooks - play Durant 40 min in first game return from injury. |
