    Atlanta catches the break and plays the Rockets without Harden.

    Meh... Doesn't matter, HOU would have lost even with Harden. ATL beat them in HOU without Jeff Teague when HOU was at full strength. No way does a full strength ATL lose at home to HOU minus Howard, even if Harden does play.

    With both Howard and Harden out, it will be interesting to see if Josh Smith tries to go off on his former team and jacks up even more bad shots than his usual allocation.

    There was an interesting segment on Inside the NBA last night about players having huge games against their former teams. Shaq had a monster game the first time he played against ORL and Barkley pulled down 33 boards the first time he played against the 76ers after they traded him. Even Rick Fox had a monster game (27 points, 13 reb, 3 BLK) his first time playing against the Celtics in a Lakers uniform. Of course, this won't be Smith's first time playing against his original team, but without Harden and Howard to keep him in check, he may try to show off for his former fan base.

    They were like "We can't give them both free throws."

    Who was comparing Gasol to 1946? No one. Too big of a jump. You overvalue "advanced statistics." You don't know what you're talking about. You didn't watch Laimbeer play. If advanced stats mean so much, maybe Favors should win MVP over Gasol? You are so confused if you think Gasol is on Olajuwon's level. Olajuwon was DOMINANT on both sides of the court, possibly the best center ever.

    I said Harden would be suspended when it happened. Glad I was right. The refs should be fined for not ejecting him.

    Jack just hit the game winner to beat the Warriors, his former team. I don't know why the Warriors let him go. He was a big reason they made the second round two seasons ago. They missed him last year.

    Doesn't Jack have a lot of former teams? It seems like he does...

    With 15 secs left, Minnesota has only made 1 FG in the 4th quarter.
