    But, how does that compare to Kevin Love's line? What? Kevin Love is not in the playoffs? I thought Kerry Eggers told me Love was the best power forward?

    They just said on Sportscenter that LA is only the second player EVER to score 40+ and grab 15+ in the first game of the playoffs on the road.

    The other guy to do it?

    Wilt.

    So much LA love on Sportscenter. It was the opening story. They showered him with praise.

    I just loved it when McHale was forced to take Dwight Howard out with the Hack-a-Dwight. They just kept on going into Aldridge who just fucking ate up the Houston defense.

    It was motherfucking clinical.

    I love that we had a pair of performances that were even in the same conversation as Wilt and West.

    Brilliant planning. LA took advantage and was able to knock down shots/FTs. I bet we're ready for their counter-move to it, too. Always two steps ahead!

    What are they going to do, double off a shooter?

    Yep pick your poison Houston, but honestly it would be better for Houston. The pace would pick up which helps them. Hopefully, stotts knows this and has a counter.

    one of the Berry brothers. - "I'll tell you what plan B for guarding Aldridge tonight, watching him score a lot of points."

    Rick Fox - "They call him LA because in LA when there's a fire and the wind starts blowing it takes weeks to put it out."

    LA played with a confidence and poise all not long. He is a very bright basketball player. The whole team is.

    That makes two of them playing for extensions. Coach Stotts and LA.

    LMA still shot a few too many jump shots for my liking, though. :dunno:

    Not in the first half. They all did a great job of not settling and taking it at them. Including him.

    I did scratch my head at his screen on Beverly in OT.

    Why?
