(A picture depicting how much a ball-hog Kobe is. Is one not enough, Kobe?)
Pistons (83), Lakers (108)
And bounce back LA did (though this really doesn't count. I mean, Detroit? Come on) They massacred the Pistons (though it actually took them a whole half before they got it going), and Kobe is now 10th overall in Ball Balls inserted in the hole, scooching ahead of Nique Wilkins. He gets a shot of overtaking the Big O tomorrow if he gets 40pts against the Suns. By the standards of Suns defense, that task is very much possible.
Spurs (115), Knicks (128)
This game was at 95-101, at the end of 3(!) Talk about offense. The Spurs continue its surprisingly offense-oriented season, but falls short of an even more offense-oriented Knicks team. The Empire State of mind just proved how legit they are this year, beating the team currently with the best record in the NBA. Looks like the lights have inspired them, made them feel brand new...
Bucks (89), Heat (101)
The Heatles continue to roll. Close through three, they stole the show at the final canto. As good as the wins are for Miami, it's actually kinda bad for sportswriters everywhere. Coz, well, it's gettin' a lil' boring. Wade scored a lot, LeBron was great all over, and Bosh did his thing, as the rest of the South Beach Boys did theirs. Until the playoffs start, somethin' spectacular has got to happen to get them back in the interesting parts of the blogosphere again. A 40pt outing from Juwan Howard just might do the trick (It might. Let's see).
Trailblazers (81), Mavericks (84)
With both Nowitzki and Butler out for Dallas, another source for offense was needed. So of course, the Jet takes over. He lead the team in scoring with 18pts, along with DeShawn Stevenson. That's right. DeShawn "Crazy Tat" Stevenson. Yep. DeShawn "kicker in the Mavs-Wizards trade last year" Stevenson. Beats the hell out-a me.
Thunder (105), Grizzlies (110)
Even after a reported altercation between Tony Allen and OJ Mayo, they eke out a win against Durantula's crew. What is this "Boo-Ray" game? They say it's the same game in the whole Arenas debacle. I have a feeling it involves some sort of humiliation to the loser, probably getting a picture with an "I love Justin Bieber" sign. Why else would such animosity result?
Hawks (108), Kings (102)
The score doesn't really tell the whole story here. This was a blow-out before Evans and Cousins made things a lil' interesting late in the 4th. Not so much trouble for the Hawks though with both Joe Jo and J-Crow (I am on fire with these nicknames!) doin' the damage.
Raptors (91), Bulls (111)
I told you this was a forgetta-ball, the highlight of the game was at about 2 and a half minutes remaining, with the crowd chanting SCA-LA-BRI-NE! They got their wish, with Scal even scoring on a jumper. At least Bayless and Bargs are back for the Raps. I like sayin' that. "BARGS"
