Video: Someone is Not Pleased With Carlos Boozer's Bank Shot



These ESPN microphones are getting so good that I'm almost convinced I can distinguish whose voice that is.  In fact, I replayed the clip over 15 times just to do further analysis.

 I wouldn't bet on this one, but I think I got this one you guys.  I'm almost positive that is the same voice of someone asking Rasheed Wallace if he wants to get in the game.

Demarcus Cousins Wearing Red Jordans With His Santa Outfit



Looks like those J's are probably from the "Toro Bravo" pack from back when I was still in college. Doesn't say much except that  Demarcus Cousins is like every other NBA player that owns Jordans that the rest of us wish we had.

Really respecting Demarcus' commitment to the role in even wearing the spectacles that St. Nick probably wore as well.  Cousins' could complete the rest of the costume if he enlists a certain tiny point guard on his team to dress up as one of santa's little helper elves.  Just an idea, feel free to pass it on to him.

14 more days until Christmas, everybody!

Noteworthy: 12/10/2013

Two Eastern Conference Teams That Are Pretty Good:
The Heat started off hot but then the Pacers took the lead in the 3rd quarter and never let the Heat get the lead again.

Real physical game with Roy Hibbert hittinf Lebron in the face area and David West setting his usual really scary picks.

These two meet again next Wednesday, so that should be fun.  Also, Dwade looked good with a pair of dunks despite those achy knees

Two Eastern Conference Teams That Are Not Very Good:
Deron Williams was back after missing a bunch of games with a hurt ankle.  He had his way with 25 points.  Paul Pierce came off the bench and really didn't play like he should have been starting missing all three of his field goals but he had 4 made free throws and the slowest change of direction move you'll probably ever see on the fast break.

Kyrie Irving with a really efficient game of  37 points 11 assists, and only 1 turnover.  Plus, he yo-yoed Pablo Prigioni pretty nasty-like


Despite scoring 15 in the second quarter, the Bucks managed to beat the Bulls in Chicago 78-74, behind the most lanky of lankys, John Henson,  putting up 25 and 14.

That kind of night for Henson who couldn't hit a jumper to save those skinny arms of his in college but made a reverse pivot fadeaway.  Lots has changed for HenHen since college i guess.



Best Highlight that Didn't Count
Jonas Jerebko had a nasty tip dunk that was called off for "offensive interference".  Tryin' to find the video of the play but I guess no one else thought it was worth capturing so just take my word for it.

hahahaha
This JR Smith turnover

Typical
Kevin Love with a  nice night of 26 points 16 rebounds and 7 assists including this dish to a full-speed Cory Brewer.




Can't forget these:
Kobe threw down his first dunk of the season.  Some borderline carry-over dribbles by KD made Paul Millsap look sill. My personal favorite of the night involved three Spurs bench players getting a three pointer to fall after a ridiculous over the head save followed by a no-look kick out.

Other: Brian Shaw isnt letting the Nuggets eat pizza and nachos before games...Derrick Williams is enjoying his new team enough to photoshop a family portrait with them...
