    I don't know. They won like 65+ two seasons in a row. He just disappeared in the big games. I think he would've figured it out and closed the deal by now. They were a very good team in Cleveland.

    DAMN. NOP put up 135 against the Sixers.

    I take back all I said about Philly.

    Pelicans scored 135 points & held their opponent under 100 points for only 2nd time in franchise history. Hornets beat 76ers 136-84 in 1992.

    When your second best player is Mo Williams a championship isn't coming to your city. He didn't disappear IMO I think he was getting trapped a ton and no one on his team could take the pressure off him.

    That I thought they would surprise people and be an 8 seed. They haven't looked good the last few games.

    Nah. How do you think they went 66-16? They were a good team. He's that good.
    They beat Houston just a game or two ago. They haven't had MCW though. They didn't have him tonight. He'll right the ship when he comes back. Do you know how long he is out for?

    Wow. I didn't know they were all out. That's crazy. Doesn't look like this experiment is gonna work out. I guess I hope KG doesn't play against us because he always gets under our skin. We'll see what happens.

    I'm pulling this out of my ass, but I hypothesize that Kidd saw us on the Nets' schedule and said, Damn, I gotta save my starters and have them play against this awesome Portland team. That's why KG, D-Will, Pierce and Lopez aren't playing tonight, I think. So I assume they will all be back against us on Monday.

    These Nets' second stringers look good. They're giving the Clips all they can handle, leading by 11 in the third

    False alarm. He jumped high for a rebound, and came down awkwardly; went to the locker room for a few minutes, but came back, seemingly fine. He's such a faker. :lo:

    He is going to do it PP style one of these days. Go down like he got shot rolled out in a wheel chair only to come running back onto the court 20m later.
