    Knicks should have bought out or waived and stretched Joakim Noah before March 1. They are paying him his full salary to do nothing.

    Derrick LULZ!
    I thought he didn't like Butler because Butler took his team from him? I guess anything to make more money to spend on Skittles...

    Mistakes happen.... what I don't understand is how they decided to jump the ball when Orlando never actually got to have a possession. It should have just been a reset and Orlando gets another shot. Why do we even have replay if it can't prevent something like this from happening?

    Thats screwed up...the clock people in LA up to some dirty shit. Officials should have replayed that possesion instead of calling a jumpball. Magic didn't get a chance at a fair possesion. If that would have been the Blazers I would be irate.

    How did 7 foot Lopez play a whole game without grabbing a rebound?

    No, don't say dumb things. They are all 4 games back of us. Please don't continue your stupid argument that ties don't occur.

    TECHNICALLY the Clippers are in 8th but they've played two less games but since you can't have less games at the end of the season that means they are all tied. This isn't even debatable.

    What a crock! Since the idiot (home) scorekeeper started the clock prematurely and the horn went off before anyone touched the ball, it should be a dead ball and go back to the Magic to inbound again. I'm almost guaranteeing if it had been the other way and the Lakers with the ball and need a basket, there wouldn't have been a jump ball at half court.

    What a joke!

    They will 100% resign Cousins if he agrees to it. You don't let a player like him leave.

    Mirotic can play at the 3 or be the backup at 4 still playing 25-30 minutes a night (Davis moving to 5 when Cousins is off).

    One of the most fun to watch teams right now. Rondo has been ace, ditto Holiday.

    My guess is that one ref (and probably the Lakers' timekeeper) thought that the Magic player guarding touched the in-bounds pass. The other one didn't agree so they decided to go to the jump ball. Maybe that isn't one of the things that's reviewable in the last two minutes?
