Quite a few games in The L on Tuesday, but nothing too groundbreaking. Highlights: The Knicks lost their 6th straight game. How about this: the Knicks have given up 100+ points in their last 8 games, and in the past 8 days have been hit with 61 by Kobe, 52 by 'Bron, and gave up 144 points in a loss to Golden State....LeBron had 47 in the Cavs' los to Indy...Kevin Durant had 31 and 10, scoring 30+ for the 5th consecutive game...The Lakers and Spurs both got W's, and are tied for a league-best record in the New Year at 15-4. I'd say they're the two best teams in The League right now, and contributions from players other than their "stars" have been a major reason why. Tuesday for L.A.: Lamar Odom - 18 boards. Pau Gasol - 22 and 14. Trevor Ariza, Jordan Farmar, and Sasha Vujacic - 9 points apiece. For San Antonio: Matt Bonner - 22 points in 25 minutes. Roger Mason - 14 points....MJ, Scottie, and othes were in the United Center last night as the Bulls honored the legendary Johnny "Red" Kerr.
The contest will take place outdoors at the NBA's All-Star Block Party on Saturday in Phoenix before TNT televises the All-Star Saturday night festivities.
If a player makes a shot in H-O-R-S-E, the next competitor must make the same shot or receive a letter. A player gets an 'H' for his first miss and is eliminated once he has all five letters of the word.
Players will have 24 seconds to execute their shots, and an NBA referee will rule if they're done properly. Dunking won't be allowed.
Three of my favorite young'ns. This event should be sick. Thinks about the range all of these guys have. And they'll be mic'd up, so we can hear all the shit-talking. I'm geeked.
