[up]"Win in NOLA" is not exactly impressive. Not to mention that both the Mavs and Lakers are also playing in their second straight game.

I'm reading this because it's interesting. I think. Whiskey, Tango, Foxtrot, over.

[up] Road games are harder and the Spurs had no Manu, actually...

Why are you so down on them anyway? Four rings? evil grin

Parker hits a game-winner to put the Spurs over the Thunder.

I do believe a certain Shadaloo dictator has two words for this.

[up] "OF COURSE." grin

But yeah, I do like both the Spurs and Thunder, but if they got in a match I'd pick the Spurs over the Thunder.

Tony Parker: grin

Couldn't have done it without Kawhi Leonard's clutch steal and Russell Westbrook getting lost on the last possession. [lol]

And once again, the Raptors are on the losing end of another historic nba moment...

I lol'd actually, because that's all I can do at this point.

If Colangelo trades away Andrea I'll forgive him for the Laundry Folds deal — that's how fucking sick I am of watching Bargnani. DeRozan's not living up to his hype that the team created and he probably never will be, but at least he gets to the line and doesn't have the same level of ineptness at defense that Andrea has.

Pistons, meanwhile, are 0-3... Can't really blame them too much for this loss, as LA was all in "something to prove" mode, and the first two losses seemed kinda close, but still...

Chicago's 2-1. Balanced scoring, yeah, but not dominant.

The Lakers (finally) won. Still have fewer wins than such elite teams such as the Hornets, Magic, and Blazers.

Wanderlustwarrior: Pistons' starting backcourt looked HORRIBLE.

[up] How could the Bulls lose to the Brow-less Hornets?

I don't want the Spurs to get near the Finals again. I think they've won enough championships already. Their switch to defense might propel them straight to it, though. I'm already predicting a 50+ win for the Spurs, plus the 1st seed.

I'll also go out on a limb and say the Bulls will, once again, earn the 1st seed in the east. New York's probably going to nab the 3rd Seed. Houston will make the playoffs as the 8th seed, not Utah or Minnesota.

I'm worried for the Thunder. They probably won't make it out of the Semifinals this time around. Goddammit, Harden.

FT: DAL 114-91 POR

Another excellent performance from DC and OJ, as well as good contributions from the bigs (Kaman continues scoring, Wright too, Brand finally gets going on the offensive end). And of course, Jae Crowder's really impressing.

Next game, Raptors!

[up][up] If I had to pick between the Spurs and the Heat, I'd gladly choose the Spurs. That's how an organization makes a contender. Gradual development.

[up] The Lakers and Celtics laugh at the "too many rings" argument.

Speaking of which, the Spurs had their first 4-0 start in franchise history after shellacking the Pacers 101-79. THE D IS BACK!

Meanwhile, the Timberwolves come back after spotting a 22-point deficit to prevent a 2-0 start for the Nets.

I don't want the Spurs to get near the Finals again. I think they've won enough championships already.

As a Spurs fan I want them to win again so I can rebut the Kobe fans. tongue

Well, the Thunder gamedidn't go so well, but maybe we can rebound against the Mavericks!

...And while I'm still wishing, I'd like for someone to be dumb enough to take Bargnani and Fields away from this team so we could have more cap space
