The Pacers have fired Jim O'Brien. I watched the presser yesterday when they introduced the interim coach, Frank Vogel. I was liking what he had to say. Hopefully Paul George gets more playing time at the 2 or 3 and Brandon Rush can be moved.

The Nets boo Melo but cheer for K-Mart lol and the Nets get the win. Devin Harris played a great game. If I was a Nets fan, I wouldn't want Melo.

Mavs won last night, 102-92 over the Wizards last night, I believe. At 32-15, they're just two wins away from tying a season-high 19 games over .500 again. Jason Kidd came 1 rebound shy of a triple-double. (11 pts, 11 assists)

Except for the fact that all of them are road games I'd say that most of the teams on this trip are pretty lousy and I wouldn't be surprised if the mighty Spurs sweep the thing.
I think the Spurs are due for a really bad game and it would most likely come in either against the Blazers or Lakers, so most likely a loss tonite or Thursday.

spurs just had said game against the hornets. i expect the spurs win tonight in a blow out, and thursday in a close one. i think their only loss on the trip comes to the bulls on the last game of a very long trip.

If LA shot like he did tonight against the Spurs every night not only would he be an All-Star he would very likely make Portland a solid contender. But of course we all know he doesn't play like he did tonight with any kind of consistency. San Antonio looked very much like they were looking ahead to Thursday night against the Lakers. Especially in the first half.

And when you get that kind of lackadaisical effort from the silver and black things do not usually turn out well. Case in point, tonight's loss.

Good prediction

I think they're going to loose to the Bulls too. It may be a Bulls and Lakers loss, I doubt they win both.

Still though, when this RRT is over San Antonio will still be atop the West and the league for that matter. I just want the thing to end soon so that the Spurs can enter a period when they'll be playing more home games. Given trends San Antonio is a lock to win the West much sooner than anyone that follows the league expected anyway.

i knew it was going to be a long night when the spurs where 1-5 for the 1st 3 minutes of the game, or better yet 0-5 in the 1st 1 minute of the game. blair was a beast in the 1st half with a double double before half time. i turned it off at the half so i didnt see why he only scored 2 points and got 1 rebound in the 2nd half. (gym at 5 am sucks and i need all the beauty sleep i can get)

well a typical spurs bounce back game should be in store for thursday!

I think the Wizards coach going to be fired sooner or later. John Wall isn't doing good this season, I never got into the John Wall hype....folks go around saying stuff about and hype him up to be some sort of godly figure in the world of basketball....and plus success in college doesn't necessarily translate into success in the NBA......but based on what I'm hearing about this guy he better be having Michael Jordan type of numbers next season lol..... dude should've stayed in college.


C'mon Grizz! beat those Timberwolves.
