It was great seeing the Lakers get their Championship rings tonight.

Can't believe the Clippers are keeping this game somewhat close.

The Clippers are a way better team thats why. Fuck all you haters and doubters. Im about to make 100 bucks

Ron Artest is an awesome addition to the Lakers. Barring injury, LA looks unstoppable this season IMO.

BOS/CLE:

LeBron and Shaq looked pretty good together. They started great but their bench really struggled while the Celtics bench lit up the scoreboard and got them back in the game early in the 2nd quarter.

HOU/POR:

Houston really struggled on the offensive boards without Yao and company. Portland took advantage of that and got a lot of second chances. The Blazers were also able to attack the lane more so than they would have been able to if Yao were playing. Ariza didn't look like the defender he was with the Lakers. Not sure if it was just this game, or if he's just more focused on his offensive game. Oden looked great. He didn't score any pointsm but he made his presence known in the paint. He had four big blocks and pulled down 12 boards including four of them as offensive. Slimming down seemed to help him a lot as he was hustling for loose balls and seemed much quicker overall, which helped his block total.

LAC/LAL:

Kobe sucks. He's the worst player in the entire NBA and I'm not biased. Clippers really missed Blake Griffin in the paint. Kaman and Bynum both had great games, averaging together about 23/15. Kobe still sucks.

Artest hasn't shown me anything but a cool hair cut. He was 3-10 shooting from the field, 1-5 from deep, and had 4 turnovers. I wasn't impressed with his performance and they only beat the Clippers by 7.

Cavs look good. The bench needs to step up. Celtics haven[t impressed me yet.

Lakers got the rings, the rings are cool with the faces engraved in the side instead of just names. That's about all I have to say about that.

Agent Zero appears to be back on track. It's going to be fun watching Washington this season.

Please explain. The Cavaliers were 40-1 last year at home when actually trying and the Celtics just matched the loss column in the first game of the season. Celtics looked damn good from the 2nd quarter on IMO.

[Whatupdoe44]

I thought the cavs still look stagnant on offense and still looked for LeBron to do to much.

This is going too be a rough year for houston, watching them play offense last night was downright awful, even if it was against a very good portland team.

Tonight the Magic open vs Philly, looking forward to the playoff rematch

So did LeBron deserve three different spots on ESPN's Top 10 Plays? He had #7, #2, and #1. Those were all damn good plays.

Cavs look good. The bench needs to step up. Celtics haven't impressed me yet.

LMAO... if the Cavs looked good, and the Celtics beat them in a spot where no one really can beat them, how the fuck did the Celtics not impress you?

You fail at logic.

Got the Hawks tonight

Gonna be rough as it seems Granger is out which would mean Rush comes in at SF

Raps vs Cavs tonight, Cavs are tired from last night but I don't think LeBron will let his team get to 0-2 to start the season, it'll be a good game but Cavs win 109-102
