Hinrich's foul in regulation to allow the Mavs to tie was beyond boneheaded.

According to Dirk it was the most bone headed play he's ever seen.

Is Kirk practicing with the Bears?

Rose physically handicapped. Hinrich mentally handicapped.

Oh and this:

76ers have won as many times as Rory McIlroy this year - SBNation.com



Oh. Oh, yeah. That's pretty bad. PRET-TY, pret-ty, pret-ty, pret-ty bad.

OTHER NOTABLE WINS SINCE JANUARY 31:

- Joey Chestnut: 1 hot dog eating championship
- Daniel Bryan: 2 WrestleMania matches
- Connecticut Huskies football: 2 games
- Jacksonville Jaguars: 3 games
- Cardiff City F.C.: 3 Premier League games (they were then relegated)
- Fulham F.C.: 3 Premier League games (they were then relegated)

I guess the answer is clear: relegate the Philadelphia 76ers

As a Bulls fan who was glued to his computer during the offseason, I'm loving how bad the Knicks and Phil Jackson look at this point.

I just read that Melo wanted to fight Hardaway Jr because Hardaway Jr was giving him shit about a rebound.

I may be for saying it...but, I'm kinda happy now that MEMEMEMEMElo went back to NY. If he was a Bull, I don't think we'd be seeing the growth and development of Butler to be a bonafide scorer...

And what's even crazier is look at their stats. I'd say Jimmy is pretty close.

As a Lakers fan, i am laughing my ass off looking at Knicks record.

That is what you get, Carmelo!

Being in the East, with Phil Jackson and Derek Fish and a considerably better roster than Lakers and still have worse record than Lakers?

hahahah

Can the Kings just get rid of JT already. They've been talking about trading him for the past 2 seasons it seems like.

49 points in the 4th Raps are a decent team but their 6-6 against teams that are over 500. Their schedule thus far has been extremely soft. It's a mirage in the East. Then again they're without their top player. I see them dropping 5 of 6 on this west coast trip.

I watched parts of last night's tilt between the Bulls/Rockets...

But, not sure about the "nasty stuff" unless you're talking about the decent job Butler did on guarding Hairyden.


Speaking of Butler, holy cow is he the League's most improved player? And again, I must say: MEMEMEMEMEMEMEMEMELo WHO!?!?!?? Melo taking his money with the Knicks was the best thing to happen to Chicago ever.

I agree that Jimmy Butler is the league's most improved player.

I think quietly Tony Wroten is also making a case for himself. too bad he is on suck ass team.

Is Skip or some other blowhard sportscaster going to complain how Blatt got "shoved" by Lebron at last night's game. Reminds me of when he bumped Spo and supposedly has 0 respect What a bad week for Cleveland though. Blatt's comments about Love not being a max player yet weren't the smartest unless he wants to motivate him. Then there was the rumor that Love was opting out at the end of the year but I just read he was quoted yesterday before the game that he plans on staying, but of course nobody reports that. And now they're under .500 after last night's loss where the most shots taken was done by not Lebron, not Kyrie, not Love but by JR Smith.

Might as well rest Kobe. Sucks to be a Laker fan this year.

Let's see how the Hawks do in the playoffs when you rely on superstars. They play Spurs-style ball but the Spurs have superstars and Leonard emerged hugely last year.

My Lakers are worst then the Kings.

Klay Thompson though........... 37 in the 3rd quarter!
