Same.

As a Mavs Fan, I still Love Nash. And Pau is someone I would Love to see in Dallas.

Gotta love Irving! Lebron is damn right, should be an All Star this year!

Nuri Sahin · 23-01-2013 3:35am

Cavs won by 5. Irving's 2nd career 40 point game and Rondo with a near triple double. Not the best but some entertaining moments. Two big baskets from Irving at the end for the Cavs.

OKC beat a CP3-less Clippers by 12. I really need to stop falling asleep during the half in the final game of the night lol.

This. The break is too long for me to stay awake through.

Half point of the season, who is everyone's MVP and Coach of the Year out of interest?

Really can't decide between Lebron, CP3 and Durant. Moreso the latter two. Matt Jackson COTY for me so far.

Yup. It's probably not the best idea I watch the games in bed on the netbook/laptop far more often than not it has to be said! I reckon I've fully watched a handful of games out of 30 or so, probably more, despite being hyped for many of them and having bets for pretty much every single one of them!

When moving Stateside, I'll be grand but for the time being, it's a struggle. In the past I just cherry picked games but the past two seasons I've tried to watch as many as possible.

ButtersSuki · 23-01-2013 3:25pm

MVP - for me it's LeBron (and I'm not a fan), CP3 and Durant in that order.....but it's much closer this year than any other.

CP3 for what he's brought to the Clippers.

Durant could join rarified air in going 50%, from the field, 40% from 3 and 90% from the FT line this year. Plus he's now back in the lead in the scoring race after a couple of big games in a row.

Said it before on here - LeBron has suffered from voter fatigue in the past and if he doesn't win it this year will likely be because of that again. Look at the guy's stats - they're unreal....26pts, 8 rebounds and 7 assists per game. And he's being rested in games. And he's not a gunner. Mad. But for the decision, he'd prob. be going for his 5th Straight MVP. :eek::eek::eek:

MVP - Lebron

Coach - either Mike Woodson or Vinny Del Negro, those choices may change

PizzamanIRL · 24-01-2013 12:09am

MVP-Durant

Coach- Mike D'Antoni

kmart6 · 24-01-2013 12:51am

Seriously, D'Antoni?!

I wouldn't be a Lebron hater or nowt. Possibly an element of voter fatigue I'll admit to that, be nice to see someone else win

OKC @ Warriors on atm if anyone is still up, hopefully I'll make it past half time :pac:

Nuri Sahin · 24-01-2013 6:54am

I did

Heck of a game, going down to the wire. Real playoff atmosphere.

Nuri Sahin · 24-01-2013 7:02am

Golden State win. Some bizarre moments from OKC down the stretch, fatigue playing it's part but credit to the Warriors. Really hope Curry and Lee become All Stars, really deserve it for their seasons.

padraig_f · 24-01-2013 12:27pm

Why the Bulls are 25-16 without Rose, and currently without Deng. There was a minor controversy earlier in the week when Noah was benched for the second half of the loss to the Grizzlies. And when Taj Gibson fouled out, Thibs brought in the rarely-used Nazr Mohammed. Noah comes out and takes full responsibility for his play. Couple of days later he's pulling down 18 boards and jumping into the crowd to save a game-winning loose ball...

Yup and the card will be charged if you don't cancel when the trial runs out.

Them cunning baxtards. Not risking getting my card charged like I got done with Netflix.

Looks like I'll stick to watching some link with about 20 pixels..

It's all legit though. If you cancel it on the 26th to be safe then you're grand.

They had this same deal at the start of the season and I did it and it was grand i never got charged.

Sensational buzzer beater in Orlando from the the Raptors Demar Derozan! Doubled teamed step-back fadeaway for the game! Very Kobe-esque.

Nuri Sahin · 25-01-2013 4:40am

First win in Boston since 2006 for the Knicks

Big win, much needed that.

haha, ridiculous name. Go Pelicans!

Nuri Sahin · 25-01-2013 1:47pm

Maybe it's just me, but I really like the logo.

Everyone ready for the New Orleans Pelicans?

Didn't like it at first, but it's growing on me. At least it's not one of those bland, corporate ones that the last few have been (Thunder, Magic, Wizards). It has a bit of character.

Also means the Charlotte team can go back to being the Hornets, which hopefully they do.

GoldFour4 · 25-01-2013 6:17pm

Yeah it was kind of dumb having a name that was used by another city anyway. The Pelican is the state bird of Louisiana so it ties in nicely.

Just sitting down to watch the game, some boos for Allen when with the ball.

Read this on Twitter, make of it what you will -

A solid NBA source has said that the Celtics are fearing a possible torn ACL for Rondo. Results from MRI will be out soon.
