Oden possibly out for another season. I feel very sorry for the big guy he seemed to be finally finding his game and he seems like a nice person (I've read that once he got back on the bench from the locker room, he told Brandon Roy 'I'm sorry'). And this is of course awful for Portland once again.

In an officiated game I did that once while I was on defense in the backcourt with the the other teams pg bringing up the ball. When done tying I got back to play defense but went for the steal because they forgot about me coming from behind. Did not get it but could not hurt to try. :)
People do this all the time but not with the ball in their hands as well. Now thats retarded. See nate robinson for a some bad judgement calls. Thats why D'antoni is DNP'n his ass.

i've given up on the grizzlies. i felt they had a lot of hidden talent that was going to be unleashed, but i was wrong. they do have a lot of talent on the team, but the problem is they don't have the right coach. they were heading the right direction with hubie brown as coach, but once he quit, the whole team went back down the toilet.
back on their bandwagon. an 8-4 december looks promising. they beat teams like dallas and denver, and barely losing to boston and dallas. i still have some faith in them. 15-16 before the 2010 is suitable for them at the moment. :stongue:

what to do with gilbert?
I say if the court is going strong and he does time say bye bye 100+ million contract. If it does not go to court I say suspension until the end of this season. As of now Stern been lient on many other situations i.e. ron artest throwing chairs, sprewell choke,etc. but this might be too much for the NBA to decide his fate.

Zach Randoph is a beast!! avg 40 pts/ 35 rebs a game :p
Anyone disagree with david lee being subbed.
Lee: 19.4 points and 11.4 rebounds
Horford: 13.6 points and 9.8 boards
I am no knicks fan but this is absurd. I could understand if the fans like horford more but this was choosen by the NBA people. What did he need to make it(25 pts/12 rebs) ?? The way I see it is if your a mediorce player on a great team you have a better chance of making it than a better player on a worse team.
Otherwise Orlando got a great win last night against the Celtics. Gortat and Howard defensed them!

and the i agree. the hawks are clearly better than the celtics right now. i feel the eastern conference standings should be
atlanta
cleveland
orlando
boston

Woops..... ya i meant the celtics.
Tonight we play orlando, we will see how that goes. Cleveland is just too good for us :/

i look at cleveland's record, and i just scratch my head.
how do they have the best record in the nba? sure lebron has just been lights out every night this year, but then you look at the rest of their team, and go whaaattttt?
they do play some solid defense, but they are just offensively challenged. sure mo williams is averaging 16.9 ppg, but that is coming from open looks he's getting from teams double and triple teaming bron. after williams, you have 4 different guys shooting a bit more than 6 fgs/game (shaq, varejao, ilgauskas, delonte west) and 2 other guys other than bron and williams average more than 27 minutes a game (parker, varejao).
no one drives to the paint other than james. they are strictly a jump shooting team, and without james, they are a very bad team. they are 3rd in PA, 1st in OPP FG%, 12th in OPP 3P FG%, and 26th in OPP TO. the way things are, the bottom half teams like charlotte and miami can take them out easily in the 1st round unless the cavs can find another guy to break down the D.
