Oh, my bad.
WesternConference, Pacific Division?
I play basketball, but don't care about details like names and percentages.
I play tennis, but can't tell you how I serve or hit a volley.
Lots of people can tell and describe the mechanics of the stroke, but cannot hit the stroke themselves.
Lots of great players can hit great strokes, but cannot tell anyone how they do it.

250.000$ fine it is.

Not sure if this belongs in this basketball thread, or the tips/instruction section. Cause they're both true! Well said!

Source? Microfracuture of the ankles is not the same as microfracture of the knees I heard.

Can you imagine if Festus becomes a solid center, and Biedrins goes back to the old 10 and 10 man he was 4 years ago?
They still need someone to replace Rush, but playing Landry and Jack more often would sure help, especially when the starter's start out 1 for 10 in the early parts of the game.

250k fine for Pop, missed the earlier post.

The butthurt in Lakers land must be strong right now. Gallinari just dunked on the entire team.

Where is the defense? How can you let somebody get a rebound, race down the floor, and dunk on the whole team?

I wonder if the refs are asleep for this Lakers/Nuggets game. There are so many blown travels/steps calls. Howard himself traveled like, 5 times already, in the 1st quarter.

Stern punishes the Spurs but he'll probably give the refs a bonus if it helps the Lakers get going in the right direction.

I guess it's to make up for the 20 missed free throws?

Just go back to the Chuck/Reggie banter you quoted in post #247! Reggie WAS right.

Wow Lakers/Howard, way to win with no class.

Would be classless if the shot clock was off, but it wasn't It was under 5 secs to shoot with 10 secs left.

So what's a turnover when you're up 10+ points, with less than ~5 seconds to go in the game?

I'll make a mountain out of a molehill out of any team. I criticize as I see it, if a Boston Celtics player were to do the same thing.

Good to see Chauncey Billups back. Doesn't look like he missed a beat.
