NBA Basketball...

Another night full of NBA action. Highlights: D. Wade went for 37 and 12 assists in the Heat's loss to Minnesota...Sebastian Telfair had a career-high, 30 points, to go along with 8 assists...CP3 had 36, 10 dimes, and 6 boards, and 3 steals. And 1 turnover. The Hornet's snapped Dwight Howard's streak of 18 consecutive double-doubles...KB24 dropped 30 and had 9 assists....J. Kidd had 23 and 10 dimes. May not sound like anything special, but that's huge for a guy who's only hit the 20-point mark 4 times this season...Amare went off for 42 and 11...With new coach Alvin Gentry, the Suns have returned to their running style, and, have scored 140+ in their last two games. Ridiculous. Before you get all gassed up, know that they played the Clippers two night in a row....Danny Granger left the Pacers' game with after injuring his foot. Damn, Damn, Damn, Damn....

Well That Was Quick...Chandler Back To N.O....

Tyson Chandler missed the New Orleans Hornets' last 12 games before the All-Star break with a sprained left ankle. But that had nothing to do with why he failed his physical with the Oklahoma City Thunder and was thus sent back to the Hornets on Wednesday.

After examining Chandler's left big toe, Dr. Carlan Yates, Oklahoma City's team physician, determined that the risk of re-injury was too great to give Chandler a clean bill of health. He therefore advised the Thunder to rescind Tuesday's trade that landed them Chandler for Joe Smith, Chris Wilcox and the rights to Devon Hardin.

"This is absolutely crazy," Chandler said in a telephone conversation Wednesday night. "I'm super shocked. This is nuts."

Full story here.

The Hornets players' are definitely ecstatic about this.

More Player's On The Move...

 

The Chicago Bulls traded F's Andres Nocioni, Drew Gooden, Michael Ruffin, and Cedric Simmons to the Sacramento Kings for C Brad Miller and F John Salmons. The Kings then traded Ruffin to the Portland Trailblazers for F Ike Diogu.

The Bulls went from Amare talks to this....brutal. Although, low-key, John Salmons is averaging 18 a night.
