    Only Hickson had an amazing game. Blazer fans never give him his due. Batum had a very good game. Aldridge and Lillard were subpar.

    Is it a sign that LA wasn't on the court when Lillard went into legend mode?

    5X5 has been done what... 8 times in history? That is an amazing game for Batum. I agree on the others though.

    It's the 14th time since 85 since it was done. By less than 14 players though.

    If they had kept track of steals and blocked shots in the old days, the # of the occurrences would've probably been higher.

    Even 14 times since 85 is less than 1 every other year. Pretty rare.

    Tinsley was only 2 weeks into his rookie season when he beat Batum's game tonight. In 2 overtimes, he played 51 minutes and his team lost.

    Tinsley being crap overall does not take away from his great night that he had. This isn't about Tinsley vs Batum. Any 5X5 is damn impressive. Someone that does one of these 5X5's is rare. They aren't just common occurrences.

    Which is why I noted it in the database link, and in the difference in minutes, 51 vs 42.

    Did Roy hit a game winner in his rookie year? I don't remember him doing that. Maybe the game against Seattle?

    Recorded the midnight 90 minute SportsCenter......... they didn't show highlights of our game! Showed the Rocket/Raptor and Laker/Philly game though. Pretty sad!

    It's like Batum is dunking on himself. It's crazy how physically similar they are. But AD has a freakishly small head that reminds me of Howard Stern's Beetlejuice.
