Man if Dallas lose tonight there will be a half game difference between 3rd seed to the 6th seed in the West.

That was probably the worst quarters I've seen the Bulls play this year. Up 9 at half time they score 12 points in the 3rd quarter with 3 made field goals. I can't believe there only down by 4 now. Thank god for their defense.

Looks like Mav's players are watching Derrick Rose take his circus shots and not even thinking about rebounds. SMH

Bulls win and are 15 games over .500 for the first time this season at 29-14.

I love Rose. I loved his interview where he said why play the game if you're not trying to be the best. If you're not doing that then I should just retire now. I know he means it because you can tell by his improved 3 point shot and jumper that he lived in the gym during the offseason.

I just realized the Clippers have atleast like 4 games on TNT/ESPN, the Hornets have 1 wtf.

Well one advantage they have over the Hornets in getting TV games is the fact that they are on the west coast. So they would get the late game of the TV double header. There are fewer teams that can fill that time slot compared to the early games. That is something the Hornets can't do.

Bobcats ride DJ's career high 31 points to victory over Philly tonight.

But...

Bobcats lose Tyrus Thomas for two months with a torn meniscus.

Re: 1/17-1/23 Game Discussion Thread

Noone wants to see the Hornets anyway. Minus Chris Paul, a very very dry team to watch. Thornton continues to rescue the Hornets, yet Monty still doesn't play him on a team dying for offense. Even CP3 has praised Thornton for his contributions when given the opportunity.. For the sake of CP3 and his career, I hope he walks away from that team. If there's any one player in the NBA that's restricted beyond belief, it may very well be CP3. Great teammate, but he deserves better than that.

I'd much rather watch the Clippers over the Hornets. And that isn't just because of Blake either, although he's the main reason.

The only reason I watch the Hornets is to watch CP3. Other than that, there just isn't much on that team that makes me want to tune in to their games.

Before I get jumped on by the Hornets fans, I'm not trying to be a dick, that's just my personal viewing preference.

Re: 1/17-1/23 Game Discussion Thread

I would rather watch the Clippers over every other team in the NBA. Blake is the most exciting player to watch since Jordan's rookie year. To me at least.

As much as I love watching Griffin I'd rather watch a team that has a superstar as well and wins games. The hornets have been in some really fun games to watch this year

Well for what it's worth, hasn't the Clippers beaten some very good teams recently? And they have Blake (their superstar), and other guys like Baron Davis and Deandre Jordan and Eric Gordon who are usually good for at least one spectacular play a game.

I don't have a problem with this. Our style of play is an acquired taste.

Our players aren't dynamic outside of Paul. Okafor, West, Belinelli, Smith, Green, Jack, Thornton, or Gray nobody listed has much athletism or a guy you must watch. Plus we play at a slower tempo to limit possesions. As long as we win as a fan I'm OK with all the above ,but I can understand why non-fans would rather watch the Clippers.
