instead of having a lot of threads to comment on dif. games.. lets just have one main one A few things that i found intresting were Udonis Haslams 20 pt and 12 boards Eddy Currys slow start 3 pts tonight.. the bulls are still the bulls Bochan Nachbar has been playin great for the rockets.. Memphis would be a 3 or 4 seed in the east.. they have won 2 out of 3 games i think this year.. and the other one they lost they should have won How did the hawks beat the hornets without terry?? i guess baron goin 6 for 21 didnt help
Haslem has been a pleasant surprise for the Heat. It helps his numbers that they went against a pretty weak defensive frontcourt though. Despite Memphis' good start they still make too many mistakes that can come back to bite 'em against teams that know how to take advantage of them. The Spurs were not one of those teams tonight seeing as how they didn't have their two best players.
<div class="quote_poster">Quoting grizzoistight:</div><div class="quote_post"> the bulls are still the bulls </div> Pippen, Hinrich, and Chandler missed most of the preseason. So they are "gelling" on the fly. Give them a few games. However, there is no excuse losing that badly to the Bucks and Rockets.

<div class="quote_poster">Quoting notMuchgame:</div><div class="quote_post">Did Haslem lose weight? He looked a whole lot wider (fatter) at Florida...</div> He does look leaner than what he was at in his Florida days, which will benefit him. I'm not totally sure though.
I read an article on haslam he got on a 3 yr workout program .. i think he came to fl at 320! and now hes like 250 or so and just solid muscle.. It was a great article ill look for it some other day

Carmelo was down right terrible...im looking for a rebound game tomorrow against his new rival bron...i think he will get 18 pts on 7-12 shooting 4-4 from the line
Holy sh... Kobe just flat out balled tonight 10 - 22 31 pts 8 boards 7 assits 0 turnovers this kid hasnt played at all this summer.. and hes trying to get in shape, he missed most of training camp it is just amazing to see how talented he is.. When the lakers get to practice a little more together look out KObe is SICK!! I saw the highlites and he hit back to back threes.. in the final minutes and then hit shaq for a nasty dunk Yall can hate all you want but in crunch time kobe is by far the best player in the league..

Dude seems to always come thru at the end.
It wasn't only Kobe that stepped up huge in that game. Redd's 36 points were what kept the Bucks in the hunt to win the game. Great game on a night of bad games.
Word on the street was .. in hs kobe use to tank the games just so theyd be close in the 4th quater so then he could show out!!! saw that on beyond the glory anyways im still amazed by how he can play 40 minutes without having that much time to practice.. 68 wins for the lakers.. Yall comment on the other games becuz i didnt get a chance to see any of them (This has nothing to do with the lakers.. so ill add one more post) ill tell yall how bad the heat are.. They lost to the spurs without Parker and Duncan.. Now THATS BAD -------------------- <font size="1">Double post edited by <font color="DarkRed">King James</font></font> <font size="1">grizzo, please use the edit button in the future to add more to your posts.</font> --------------------

Wizards are killing the mavs -- arenas has 22 - 10 - 8 already I honestly think Jarvis Hayes has a better offensive game right now than lebron.. hes def. flying under the radar God the Magic suck.. they are losing to the bulls now oh yea and eddy curry after coming off his 2 point explosion has 4 tonight.. what in the world is wrong with him!!
