    Well, this was a damn good night. We get a win, Houston loses, Dallas loses (yeah, to GS... but still, that gives us cushion for #8, just in case) Now we're 4 up on 8th place with 6 games to go. Phew. Oh, and a 1 1/2 out of 4th. (Though, it's a bit more with the season series).

    Wow, I didn't realize Toronto was in 3rd. That eastern conference is limp.

    I guess we know who Hibbert is calling selfish! What an asshole move by George, even though he made the shot. His teammates were just staring at him, then run right by him. No wonder he had to go to Fresno State.

    George may not even end the year with a PER of 20, amazingly. But ... but ... he's a SUPERSTAR!!!

    The Pacers were only up by one point when he pulled that. If I were the coach I would bench him for the rest of the regular season. That team is a mental mess.

    Also, did you notice that the shot clock went back to :24 seconds when there was 2 left? lol.


    Also, Minny beating Memphis... and hey, if it gives us cushion and takes our magic number down a bit, I'm all for it.

    I really am shocked by that play. Very little shocks me in the NBA. Hoisting up 40' shots early in the shot clock, and late in the game, with a one point lead is just mind-boggling. Is Paul George having some sort of mental breakdown? Who takes that shot? Sure, he made it, but his teammates must be wondering WTF was that?

    I've never seen that type of shot with a close lead, late in a game, and a full shot clock. Wow!
