    Yep, not to mention the very impressive 12-13 from the FT line.

    But he only got 4 rebounds, so clearly he's soft, and no all-star. [/Barkley]

    Oh that's right. They lost that game when Melo dropped 50.

    I see that UTA is stuck on 31-24 as well.

    Definitely. Although it's no All-star selection, this will be good to have Aldridge get some recognition for all his hard work. We would be a lottery team without him.

    Huh? Barkley said LA should be an allstar.

    I could see Aldridge making all-NBA 3rd team if he keeps up this body of work. That is much better than an all-star appearance imo.

    I'm pumped for tomorrow's game. LA vs. Love. I have a feeling that 42pt career high is gonna be broken.

    The 6th to 8th seeds are all up for grabs. It's gonna be a crazy playoff race down the stretch.

    True. And I like that Aldridge gets rest for the All-Star weekend. The way we are riding him, he needs a break to carry us for the 2nd half of the season.

    If Portland wins tomorrow, which isn't a given, they could be tied for 2nd place in the division if Denver loses tomorrow.

    It would take some unexpected losses for Portland to maintain that position going into the ASB. If they are in 2nd place by ASB, that would be absolutely amazing.

    2nd place in the division could put them up to 6th, with a super slim chance at being 5th in the conference. But that would take a lot of things falling their way first (Utah losing, Denver losing and New Orleans losing against Portland). Each are a high order.

    Interesting to note, we now have the longest active winning streak in the NBA!

    He said Aldridge should have got in over Duncan.

    I have a feeling that early foul trouble is in the immediate future for LMA. Stern can't have a much better player on a winning team take a big stinky dump on the "once-in-30-years" player on a 13-win team.

    No shit, he damn well better win Western Conference POTW. The only other player close statistically, is Carmelo Anthony (37.25 ppg), and he lead his team to three losses, not three wins.

    LaMarcus should win, and it shouldn't be close.
