    I bet the game Bird did that was that OT game against the Blazers where he hit a stumbling three to send it into OT.

    John Henson was somebody I was interested in on draft night. Drummond was NOT. Guess I was wrong-er than I was right. The Bucks are kind of stacked for the future: if they end up with a front line of an improved Henson plus Larry Sanders then it won't matter than Jennings and Ellis are total gunners.

    Tobias Harris at 20 years old is ballinnnnnnnn

    Jealous of Orlando. Him and Paul George have jumped up the SF rankings this year. In a couple years those two will be right behind LeBron, Durant and Melo.

    Chandler Parsons is sneaky good as well.

    The stakes were raised when he signed that contract. He needs to be more consistent and less passive.

    Tobias Harris with Orlando is arguably better than Batum this season, and Tobias is only 20. This is Batum's 5th season in the league.....

    @ESPNStatsInfo: Kevin Durant would need to score at least 47 points tonight to overtake Carmelo for the scoring lead (averaging 27.4 PPG last 5)

    Did anyone see Inside the NBA on TNT earlier?

    They had a great spot on Lorenzen Wright. I've got give them credit for that one. Lorenzen's death is still a mystery... we all "know" how it went down if you ask anyone on the street, but nothing's been proven by the cops, and the case is closed. My brother lives in the apt complex he got tortured in, before they dragged him to the woods outback and shot him, so I'm in that area of Memphis a lot, and when I drive by the woods they shot him and dumped his body in, I still get chills every now and then.

    I remember showing up to check it out and pay respects about a week or so after he'd been murdered, and there was still a roped off, seven foot pool of blood, not even too far off the dirt road through the woods. Juxtaposed with the roses, teddy bears, and Memphis jerseys laid on the fence, it was a pretty unforgettable scene.

    I think Memphis should retire his jersey, not just because he was just some player who died, but because he played his high school, college, and pro ball all in the city of Memphis and really meant a lot to the city. Pau Gasol holds the records right now, Shane Battier did more for the community, but Lorenzen Wright was the pride of the city since he was a kid, through college, and then again in the pro's. I'd love to see his jersey in the rafters.

    His death and Bison's death are crazy unsolved stories.

    Couldn't find a clip... will post if I find it though.

    Word is that he owed Craig Petties (or someone in his organization) some money and couldn't pay up. He left his house with a box of drugs and cash, was then tortured, shot through the eyes, and dumped not too far behind the apartment in the woods, where he laid there decomposing for ten days until cops found his corpse.

    W's got raped by the refs last night. Anyone else see that fucking bullshit foul they called on Steph to give Blake two free throws (emphasis on FREE) that ultimately won the game?

    And Boguts injured again. Ugh.
