    Firstly, if you are going to have a rule which relies on an imaginary vertical cylinder, why (with all the billions in the game) wouldn't you have a camera above every basket looking straight down, so you can judge if the ball has left said cylinder or not?

    Secondly, just get rid of the stupid rule, and go with the FIBA rule which says that any ball that has hit the rim is fair game for everyone.

    Halfway through the last quarter, whilst sitting on the bench; Dame gave Muhammad a mouthful, and Muhammad clearly wasn't happy. It was pretty funny, but I wonder what it was all about.

    With many people complaining about LamBeibs poor shooting, I don't understand why isn't it mentioned that he is currently missing feeling in his shooting hand, since injuring it on opening night.

    Does anywhere use a live score worm for NBA games? Like the ones used in Australian Football? I find it really shows the ebb, and flow of games.

    Probably cuz it isn't the shooting hand he injured, but it could very well be affecting his shot anyway. I think it's more of a timing issue. His shot looks hurried.

    If Dame can get close to 40% from the 3, and continue to finish at the rim like he is now, he's gonna be an all star again and a top 10 player.

    Did Crabbe foul Martin on that last play? Just curious.

    Is that an objective 90%, or a Blazer fan 90%?
    If the Blazers weren't involved would you expect a foul to be called?

    I think his shot will come back. I think Quick's article was dead on. It seemed pretty clear to me that Dame has been feeling his way through the season. He's "the man" now, and he's adjusting to what that means, because he's also the point guard. So it's a bit of an adjustment to try to balance both of those roles. Last night he did it very well, although I'd love to see him get another assist or two.

    Please delete this word from your vocabulary. It makes you sound like an ignorant bigot.

    No shit. It's pretty distasteful, unless your talking about bundles of sticks or cigarettes.

    omg, Stotts finally dumped Bieber at the 4th qrtr to play plums-aminu-crabbe-cj-dame , just like i wanted!

    Enough of the aryan frontline ,Stotts! Thomas Robinson didn't get minutes, no reason Leonard should.
    I hope next game we start we this 5 and bring Kaman back as bench Center while Bieber gets his first DNP

    Good thing you're not involved with player development.
