    BTW - For KingSpeed's benefit, here's a quote from an earlier 5-on-5 on ESPN, before they revealed the top 15 -

    5. Which top-15 player's #NBArank are you most curious to find out?

    I guess he's not a sexy enough player with relatively low ppg and rpg for a superstar, and you gave him shit for not being named an All-Star, but the way it's looking, Big Spain is set to be a member of one of the All-NBA teams, as well as an All-Defensive team member. These rankings alone have him 15 spots higher than his fellow teammate that actually was named an All-Star. Time to give him some respect...?

    Current Playoff Picture

    Some intriguing matchups there:
    Fun:
    Nuggets vs. Warriors
    Knicks vs. Boston
    Clippers vs. Grizzlies
    Spurs vs. Lakers (I wonder if the Spurs would actually prefer this matchup to Utah)
    OKC vs. Houston (Harden's Revenge or Martin's Revenge?)

    The one nobody will care about:
    Atlanta vs. Indiana

    Give Eric some time to respond. He's learning the game before he posts.

    That's because there weren't "huge amounts". Injuries aren't the Lakers' problem - Chicago has done much better with worse injuries and far less star power.

    As a Warriors fan I'm really hoping we stick at 6 and play the Nuggets. They're great at home and do well against us, but the Grizz just flat out own us.

    No. The coaches who pick the All Stars know better than ESPN. Only way he possibly makes it is if they count out Tyson Chandler out cuz he's hurt.

    Drummond with 29 and 10 tonight on only 11 shots. I was scared of him on draft night as well, but he is really looking good.

    Anyone notice how Tobias Harris has been balling out with Orlando?

    He's averaging 16.3 ppg, 8.4 rpg, 1.9 apg, 1.5 bpg since the trade, not including his 30 pts, 19 rbs, and 5 ast game tonight against his former team.

    NO!!! What happened man?? I watched the Denver game on and off tonight, but when the Nugz pulled away, I stopped watching ball for the night.

    I don't see anything on ESPN about the injury, except for what you posted. Did it look serious?

    His PER with Orlando is 16. He was one of the 2 #1s we gave with Dante to get Gerald Wallace.

    "Rookie Anthony Davis, the first pick in the 2012 draft, limped off the court midway through the fourth quarter after crashing to the floor while drawing an offensive foul against Thornton, who landed on Davis' left knee.

    The Hornets said that Davis sprained his left knee. His status is unknown for the final three games of the season. The New Orleans Times-Picayune reported that Davis, who was limping noticeably on his way to the team bus, is scheduled to have an MRI on Thursday."

    He walked off the court limping, but not like carried off or anything. From what I've read it sounds like just a tweak, not anything to serious, but they'll probably be cautious and shut him down.

    @ESPNStatsInfo: John Henson- 17 points, 25 rebounds, 7 blocked shots last night. Last player with at least that many of each in a game- Shaq in 2004
