It's so obvious he doesn't even try to hide it

It's like he knows the refs won't call anything so he flails away. He's gonna do it to the wrong guy one of these days and it'll come back to bite him.

And that's when the league will be forced to address it

Golden State might be vulnerable now with Durant out.

Golden State might be vulnerable now with Durant out. 

Maybe but still the same team besides Barnes and Bogut that won a title and blew a 3-1 lead for another one. They will be alright w Iggy jumping into start.

They gave up their depth to bring in KD. Bogut was a big piece for them last year and him being hurt the last few games in the finals really helped the Cavs. He rocks dudes with his illegal screens. They're obviously still the favorites in the West but I think a few teams out there smell blood now. This is the first time the Warriors have really faced adversity so it'll be interesting to see how they handle it.

Vacation a/k/a Blowing The Kids Inheritance While There's Still One To Blow is over so I'm back at it.  God, I missed you people.  Do you have any idea how hard it was to make any semblance of keeping up with this board these past 2 weeks?

Memorable day in NBA history.  55 years ago Wilt the Stilt Chamberlain scored 100 against the Knicks who are still clearly hapless 55 years later.

CLEVELAND -- Barely a minute into his Cleveland Cavaliers career, Andrew Bogut went down with a fractured left tibia.

I suppose to say "thems the breaks" would be considered to be in extremely poor taste.

The Portland at Minnesota game was postponed thanks to Disney on Ice!   "The Target Center hosted Disney on Ice over the weekend and left the ice under the basketball court in anticipation of a college hockey tournament that will be played in the building later in the week. The combination of ice under the playing surface and an unseasonably warm March day in Minneapolis, where temperatures reached 62 degrees, caused condensation to form on the court."  "This is slicker than snot," Blazers center Meyers Leonard said while going through his pregame shooting routine.

No D-League games on the schedule.

That's it! Ladies and gentlemen, Dirk Nowitzki is the 6th player in @NBA history with 30,000 career points after that jumper.

 

Hope it came on an assist from Yogi.

He didn't. He assisted a subsequent 3 that forced the Lakers to call timeout where the team including Cuban mobbed Dirk.

 

[Class of '66 Old Fart 94,579]

Very solid game for Yogi and continues to prove he's an NBA level PG.

Vic back on the court with a good night.  Westbrook didn't even get a double-double tonight, but he did score 58 pts. on 21-39 shooting from the field and 13-16 from the charity stripe.

No D-League games.
