Basketball (NBA, College, etc.)

The Atlanta Hawks pulled off an upset against the Minnesota Timberwolves 101-99. Like I always say, this team is full of surprises :mrgreen: :hehe:

Spurs lose one at home, against the Kings... :shakehead:

Warriors lose again, this season is forgettable for them....lottery bound warriors. :beaten:

Clippers win the Suns in Phoenix, 119-105 :thumbsup:

That's nice :applaud: . And also, Shaun Livingston, one of my player in my NBA fantasy team, dished out his career-high 13 assists in this game and giving my team an edge on assists against my tough opponent :D .

yeah, he played a good game considering, he had to fill in as a starter in place of Sam Cassell, who was injured. I thought Shaun played a very solid game and dished out very good contributing to their victory. I think the Clippers are headed as the 5th seed in the playoffs.
also, E. Brand had an awesome game. :woot:

I so want to rewind to the beginning of the season. Can't I just replay the first month in my mind?

what about the more dominating times of Run TMC, and when they were in the playoffs, eons ago... :headscratch: :hehe:

Detroit Pistons beat Heat in Miami :beaten:

Lakers down big early on against Denver Nuggets. :shakehead:

Lakers lose in OT against Denver, 108-110 :beaten:

Hmm......I'm mad when the Pistons are winning games like this......but for the first time, I was somewhat happy with the result of this game, knowing that a loss or 2 by the Heat will put the Nets closer to the #2 spot :beaten: :hehe: .

Man, that's not a good sign for the Lakers. Even if they have already secured a spot for the playoffs, winning games before entering the playoffs is still important to give them confidence and stuff like that :sweat: .

Clips, Lakers, Warriors all lost yesterday :beaten: :beaten: :beaten:

but the Pistons also lost against Orlando.. :bonk:

Spurs lost a home game against Mav's, i'd say the Spurs hit a bump in the road, after losing at home previously to the Kings... :beaten:

Alot of strong teams have been losing recently......and New Jersey Nets is one of them, snapping their winning streak to the hands of King James and the Cleveland Cavaliers 102-108 :shakehead: :( . James was simply unstoppable, scoring 37 points in the game, including 18 in the 4th quarter.

that's right. you are a NJ Nets fan.....they are doing great, and have the momentum into the playoffs.

Hehe yeah, obviously I'm a big fan of that team :D . By the way, the Nets bounced back from their loss to the Cavaliers, defeating the Milwaukee Bucks 95-83 :victory: .

The Lakers won against the Clippers 100-83 to retain the #7 spot in the west standings. The #7 spot is a tight competition, with the Sacramento Kings just 1 win behind from taking that spot from the Lakers :sweat: .

Phoenix fell to Sonics 114-116.
Spurs beat Memphis 83-81 :woot:

Lakers beat Warriors 111-100, probably best TEAM game Lakers have played all year, Kobe got his usual 31, but Odom had a triple double, and Kwame had 15 points and 15 rebounds. :woot: Why couldn't they have played like this 2 months ago!??! :bonk: [/list:u]

i watched some of the game..Kobe was scoring as usual...
i think the warriors discovered and mastered the skill, of knowing how to lose.

they need a lot. Baron Davis is a great player, but i think they need the right players and a new coach. Defense is what they lack, and they shoot too many unnecessary 3's. They need to play smarter basketball and learn how to win again.

Baron Davis is great....when he's healthy.
