    I know it was 2OT, but Duncan had 31/11 tonight. Patty Mills had 23/5/4. I liked Mills. I wish we had held onto him.

    The ref who called it was blocked, so he just saw a leg extend... but it was a natural movement. Maybe that's a make up call for the playoff series against the Lakers? :lol:

    I was listening to Eye on bball podcast and they had a journalist on who was talking about the whole cavs issue and brought up their GM being fired and how Chris Grant was the only one in the draft room who didn't want Anthony Bennett.

    Its so hard to know what's actually going on because of so many rumors coming out about different things. If the reports about kyrie being a drama queen and not listening are true they could have the makings of the next marbury

    It starts at the top. Gilbert came across as a childish jackass with the angry letter to LeBron after he left for Miami. Not that LeBron fared much better, but at least he isn't entrusted with running a franchise.

    Well, Lebron did run the franchise in Cleveland until Gilbert took over....

    Lakers will re-sign Sean Williams to replace Nick Young, who's out at least 2 weeks because of non-displaced knee fracture (and bone bruise)

    Mark Cuban won a title as a clownish owner.

    Clownish maybe, but he does tend to make good basketball decisions. Cuban seems to take good care of people within the organization.

    Good to see the Cleveland GM get fired instead of the coach. Brown will get fired too, but at least they started at the top. Or at least as high as possible. You can't fire yourself.

    Bottom line is their drafts were horrible and the Brown hire was horrible as well. Not to mention Bynum.......
