You do realize that players rarely if ever join their teams the day they are traded?

Anyway, this story on TNT about Brian Grant is surprising. Didn't know he had Parkinson's...WTF?

 

[Proof21]

I thought they mentioned he did a few years ago..maybe that was on a local broadcast, it's sad indeed.

 

[BUCK3YE5]

Ya I saw a special on Brian Grant within the last year about having parkinson's

Cavs definitely could have used Big Z at the FT line tonight

 

[Point Blank]

That was a helluva game right there.

 

[jags224]

or wally szczerbiak from the 3pt line...

"king" james 1/9 from down town.

lol

 

[Dez]

anyone know if there's a .gif of LeBron almost crying after missing the last shot where he slipped????

 

[BUCK3YE5]

Ya LeBron took 2 three pointers in a span of 5 seconds. He was lucky Varejao and Boobie Gibson were able to get rebounds and give us more life.

Carmelo > ______

 

[Miami Flash15]

dude the game ended like 10 minutes ago. lol

lol

Carmelo > ______

Melo is that dude. I was so pissed at Chauncey for jacking up that three at the end of regulation when they didn't need one. A simple feed to Melo in the post would have saved everyone some time.

Melo is that dude though, as I've said.

Ah here we go:

 

[jags224]

lebron should have set up gibson or parker (better 3 point shooters) for an open three rather than him jacking up out of rhythm shots. out of those 33 shots he attempted there had to be times they were open.

Lebron had 15 assists... he hit Parker and others numerous times for buckets.

"king" james 1/9 from down town.

And Chauncey Billups was 2/7... both shot under 30% from beyond the arc.

Lebron did take a lot of bad shots though... but on the same note he had a lot of good passes as well.

lol @ LeBron giving it to Parker for the win. Imagine the backlash if he gave it to Parker for the game winner

Hell it happened in the Boston game and the press never let it go. The star of the team has to try that shot unless somebody is wide open. By the time he slipped he didn't even have time to pass anyways

Exactly, plus if you look at that inbounds play, no one is open when Lebron gets the ball.

But what really killed the Cavs was their free throw shooting last night: they went 23/40 from the line. For you math majors out there, thats 57.5%. I don't care who you are, you don't win a game when you shoot free throws like that.

It was pretty damn impressive just to be in position to win that game considering they shot so poorly from the charity stripe and they didn't have a full roster. But then again, if Carmelo doesn't nail a tough jumper, we're not having this conversation.

 

[Dez]

So the new look Wizards have won two in a row

We beat a healthy Nuggets squad and saw Thornton, J-Ho, and Blatche carry the load. I'm starting to like this new look.

 

[zack54attack]

Bulls 3 in a row.

Mike Bibby's line tonight:
6 pts. 1-8 from the floor (0-3 3pt.), 4 assists, 4 turnovers....What, exactly, would you say that you do here, Mike?

Suns 88, Hawks 80 control+ATL+delete
