New Orleans start the week nicely with a tight win against NJ (minus Carter) Paul hit a tough layup with 2.6 remaining for the winner. They trailed by 11 in the last quarter.

Rashard Lewis is going balastic 8-11 for 19 points before half time.

 

[Darealrath]

Scala****ingbrine with more points than Garnett and Allen combined so far. Close game so far.

 

[Jimmy_the_Gent]

Darko with 11 points in the first. Yet to see action in the second.

 

[Borgsta]

The 3 early games are all in danger of being absolute hammerings.

Magic up by 30, Boston by 12 and pulling away and Charlotte by 25.

Ugly stuff

Parker > Kobe

C'mon grind those filthy Lakers into dust.

We did OK, not getting blown out in any quarter. It was hovering around 9-10 until the last 2 minutes when it was over anyway. Still, we need to find our next win in a hurry.

You guys did do well. It really looked like it was getting away but you stayed in it and were respectable.

Triple double coming up for Iggy

Whats going on with Marbury and the Knicks?

 

[johncocksasuperstar]

boozer cant play SF

 

[celtic_pride]

Oh heck ...

I've got a very nervous but also very confident vibe about the Celts, the same I had about the Red Sox this year and the Pats ...

I think hopefully this season Paul Pierce deserves to be an all-star starter for the East, along with KG, with Ray Ray on the bench ...

Seriously, I am thrilled for Pierce, he stayed loyal and true to the Celts, you can understand why he was pretty pissed off with management the last couple of years, but he is getting his just rewards, and I hope for his sake, he gets to strut his stuff in the NBA Finals ..

What do the Boston Celtics and New England Patriots have in common ?
Both are undefeated

Bruce Bowden Leading DPOY IMO

 

[Stenglein's a Champ!]

Whats going on with Marbury and the Knicks?

Thomas said he was going to get less playing time and Marbury took off back to New York.

Apparently Thomas said he could go, but their relationship's on shakey ground.

Leading Sixth Man: Manu Ginobili

Jason Terry.

Yeah agree with that other guy. Jason Terry for sixth man, thought that would be a lock in right now. Pretty sure he's in the top 10 or around there in PPG atm, and shooting above 50% from the field.

 

[Shaucob_Burjan]

yeah i'll replace Camby with Bowen for leading DPOY.

As for Ginobili v Terry in the sixth man, the Spurs are 7-1 and leading the toughest division in the whole league (that division alone is better than the entire East conference), mainly thanks to Ginobili.

Also the offense/defence ON/OFF court, for Ginobili it's much more significant than Terry. The Spurs concede A LOT more points and score more points when Ginobili is off the court than the Mavs with Terry.

I forgot the MIP.. it goes to Ronnie Brewer right now.

Comments on the ALL-Teams??

Comments on the ALL-Teams??

AI isnt a point guard.
DWill isnt a SG.
Boozer isnt a SF.

I like the selection of Kaman. Great year so far.

If you do this every week you may aswell start the template with Durant as ROY as he will win it in a canter.

Magic will win by 8 points today.
