    That will make the Hornets a more dangerous team over the next 4-to-6 weeks.

    I don't know how many of ya'll were watching the Bucks/Clippers game, but Griffin just threw down what may be the dunk of the year on a between the legs pass from Crawford... that's a highlight ya'll will want to check out...

    I'm sure the refs had nothing to do with it.

    The dunk itself would be nothing special if Griffin were just making that play on the break himself, but that pass and the quick reaction by Griffin to windmill it made it the best dunk I've seen so far this season. I'm not sure I've seen anyone try an alley-oop like that in a game before.

    I didn't watch it, because I was watching the Portland/Memphis game, but that's not too uncommon. Veteran players know how to get the fouls and how to not draw them when it matters. I'm just not sold on the LA conspiracy theories.

    Blazers had a better play in our game against the Bobcats. Lillard made a left handed behind the back bounce pass to Batum who touched it Leonard who threw it down. Best play I've seen all year.

    I don't think it was better than the Crawford - Griffin play but it's great basketball. I didn't really pay attention to the pass before, you're right, I've never seen anything like that in a game before.

    The Griffin dunk was better.

    From @EliasSports: Kobe Bryant (34 years, 195 days) had 42 Pts and 12 Ast, 2nd-oldest player ever with a 40pt-10ast game (Larry Bird).

    Hopefully they do fine (relatively speaking since they suck) without him and we can come up with a trade they would like this summer.
