The Bulls shot 33% for the game and really needed help on offense as they could only put up 15 points in both the first and fourth quarters. Plus, watch the clip again and see how slouchy Kirk gets
Welcome Back, You Guys
Nikola Vucecic was back after a week off with his hurt ankle and had 17 points and 14 boards in the Magic's win over the Bobcats.
Stephen Jackson played his first game as a Clipper after being out of the league since last Spring. The Clippers won on the road against the Celtics and Boston gave Doc Rivers a neat standing ovation to welcome him back.
Lobs for Clippers as expected, except there was this failed one by Deandre Jordan.
Avery Bradley also caught this nice one handed oop.
These two teams met int he conference semi's last year, but tonight only one team really looked like a playoff team.
Hmmm
Greg Monroe had 28 and 10 but missed 5 free throws. The Pistons lost by 5, so you could irrationally put the blame on him for this one.
Spurs whooped on the Bucks with Tim Dnucan continuing to show that he might be a vampire cause based on his rebounding and shooting efficiency, he's not a day over 23.
This Sounds Really Rare
Spurs' Center, Jeff Ayres aka the man formerly known as Jeff Pendergraph started his second game in a row and grabbed 10 rebounds, 0 turnovers and 0 points. In fact, Ayres didn't even take a shot or a free throw the whole game. He played 25 minutes near the basket (obviously, cause he grabbed a lot of rebounds) but didn't shoot it even once.
Really Obscure Fact
I guess there hasn't been a guy in the NBA to wear #57 until Hilton Armstrong did for the Warriors last night. Way to go and do something semi-basketball related that gets you in the news, Hilton.
Goood
Jazz won their second road game of the season against the Kings who still haven't gotten their newest players yet. This feels like a extraordinarily long time for a traded player to suit up for his new team. This kind of dissapointment kinda makes sense when you consider that the player we are talking about is Rudy Gay.
I've been calling Spencer Hawes the mini-Kevin Love this season, but KLove outplayed Hawes tonight with 26 and 15 and this really excited celebration for Robbie Hummel's swooshed three.
Game of the Night
Monta Ellis and Steph Curry used to be backcourt mates at the beginning of Curry's career and both teams make slick passes and swish a lot of jumpers so I was super excited to watch this game. Bet you weren't expecting a blocked three and layup all on one possesion in this game though.
And of course there would be a Steph Curry game winner.
Other: JJ Barea getting a noogie from Pekovic (hehehe)...Glenn Davis is a really good interviewee
