    I think Watford will get the start. If it's all small guys around Nurk (considering none of our small guys seem to be capable of keeping their man in front of them) the Mavs will just drive to the basket until Nurk has to be a turnstile or is fouled out.

    It's in memory of the anniversary of Kobe's death. Players don't see the same rivalries as fans do.

    i don't think you could find a bigger Kobe hater than me, but even I got emotional when hearing about the crash. I was on vacay in Mexico at the time and it threw me off the whole day. Had to call my pops to talk it out, because I feel like he and I watched every big moment in Kobe's career for 20 yrs together.

    this was bigger than basketball.

    I get that. Kobe was no saint and while I am sorry for his kids and family, his death didn't really change my perception of him as an arrogant, unsavory character. Great Bball player, less great person.

    Let me quote from The Wook Of Bookee .....er.... The Book Of Wookee:
    "It is a moral imperative to hate the L*kers."

    This was Gerald Wallace earlier in his career. His nickname was no coincidence
