Eric Gordon good, James Harden gooder.

Harrell also shot something crazy like 11/12 from the field. Anyone setting the screen in a Harden PnR seems to magically turn into Karl Malone.

And yet Dwight was too proud

Hit the ol' 40 point triple double tonight. Err, actually looking at the box score he also had 10 turnovers so I guess he hit the quad bumble. Even with that Raps still had more turnovers, 17 to 15. Guess everyone else on Houston is pretty good at handling the rock because Harden's the only one who handles the ball for more than catch and shoots.

Not even that mad at Raptors losing tonight. Even though on paper it kinda looks like a typical Raptors choking the fourth quarter thing, it didn't feel quite the same to me. Derozan was playing awesome, Lowry was kinda MIA, but by and large the Raptors offense was working and they weren't forcing shots. The defense just wasn't there/Houston's offense was just too good/Harden is a miracle man. Stop letting Montrezl Harris into the paint for gods sake. Even though it's the same end result I'm happier seeing the Raptors lose when they're hitting shots versus losing because of playing dumb iso ball and missing shots. I suppose it'll wear on me if it keeps happening, but it's less frustrating to watch at least.

i was going to reference that video i half-remember of eddy curry wheezing around in practice in cargo shorts that i may have hallucinated, but then i found this article and remembered the insane number of tragedies and other weird poo poo that hit him and now i really want a 30 for 30 on eddy curry

http://nymag.com/daily/sports/2011/02/a_look_back_at_eddy_currys_kni.html

also, he tore a vestigial muscle that only 40% of people even have:

quote:

The plantaris muscle is a vestigial muscle, which no longer has use and 60 percent of people don’t even have it. The injury is normally associated with tennis, though Curry never has been mistaken for being a serve-and-volley specialist. The only NBA player ever known to have this injury was Brent Barry nearly two years ago.

WCS also hasn't been good in the limited minutes he was getting. He's having a real hard time getting a grasp on Joerger's system and on defense he is just lost and ineffective out there. He probably needs real, long, sustained burn out there to play himself into some kind of confidence but he can't stop fouling people or looking lost on defense so Joerger get pissed off

It's official. LBJ has passed MJ in another category and will probably climb much farther:

code:
NP	Player
5986.24	Kareem Abdul-Jabbar
4915.4	Artis Gilmore
4915.28	Karl Malone
4688.56	Reggie Miller
4381.56	Adrian Dantley
4349.08	Charles Barkley
4188.12	Shaquille O'Neal
4052.96	Dirk Nowitzki
3898.8	LeBron James
3895.32	Michael Jordan
3609.84	Moses Malone
3502.76	John Stockton
3385.2	Ray Allen
LBJ doesn't get enough credit as a scorer. Guys with 22,000+ points with the versatility to shoot 50%+ from 2P range and 33.3%+ from 3P range:

LeBron James
Reggie Miller

He's going to pass Dirk in WS in the coming weeks and most likely reach 200 WS before him as well.


Also, CP3 now has 8,000+ assists.
