76ers lose 5 straight before the break. 12 and 2 with hawes in lineup. 8 and 12 when he doesn't play, coincidence?

Sad to see D-Fish traded.  I hate the lack of loyalty in sports.  They should have traded Blake, kept Fish, and just had him come off the bench behind Sessions.  They just lost one of the best clutch shooters they've ever had.  The same guy who took took less money to come from Utah and later refused to sign with the Heat.  The sports business is cut throat.

im sure it hurt to do it to him, im thinking he may retire or be waived.

talking about being waived, greg oden was released from portland...dudes a bust unfortunately...his body is fragile.

Fisher outta sign with the Clippers. They need veteran guard leadership even since Billups got hurt.

He landed with OKC.  Happy for him.  I've watched Sessions a few times now and he is the real deal, but they should have kept Fish and traded Blake.  Fish could have been valuable off the bench and in crunch time.

My Lakers still do not look like a championship caliber team.  Could not keep up with Memphis today.  I like the way Sessions fits in, and they have the horses in the starting five, but their D isn't good enough at this point.

Kobe looks a little lost in the offense too.

Kobe makes first team all NBA again, and second team all defense. 

Bynum was second team all NBA, but probably should have finished ahead of Howard this year.

Yet...you prefer him over Howard?

No.  I prefer Howard over Bynum at this point.

That's retarded. 

If he wasn't playing for ny, I don't think he would have got the award. This coming from someone who roots for the knicks.

Don't get me wrong, he basically WAS the knicks defense. But its telling when you win the dpoy and the coaches think youre only 2nd squad material.

Has that ever even happened before? Too lazy to research.

I don't know if it has ever happened, but it makes absolutely no sense, unless the guy who was on the first team finished a few votes behind for DPOY.

Are the Spurs going to lose anytime this year?  Pretty impressive run.  Nineteen in a row.

I just hope the Heat don't win the title.  I can't stand Lebron.

Same here.  I'm rooting against The Frozen One. 

SA has now won 20 in a row.  Have watched them a few times in the playoffs now.  That is one terrific bb team.

Yeah..the Spurs can beat you a few different ways. The difference between this year's Spurs team and those championship teams is that they can beat their opponents with offense, not just defense. They can score a lot points if they have to.

Let's see how they play as the series moves to OKC's house. If the Spurs win game three, they're sweeping and closing it out. That's what good veteran teams do. Popovich is hands down the best coach in the NBA. And he has been for a long time. Not too bad for a former GM.

Agree. 

I think their ball movement on offense is outstanding.  Very unselfish group of players.

Come on Celtics!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!  I do not want the Heat to win the championship!  Lebron is a bitch, and D-Wade has turned into a whiny girl.

Hope the Celtics can win the series. But even if the Heat make it to the finals, they're not getting past the Heat or Thunder, in my opinion.

If SA wins game 6 in OKC's house...I predict the Spurs win the series in seven. Can OKC close out the proud, veteran Spurs? I don't know....But OKC's home crowd will be rockin.'

Agree.  That's a big IF.  We're about to find out what SA is made of.
