I still don't think the Lakers will win it all without Bynum. I'm interested to see what dirty sanchez is gonna contribute to the team other than his awesome mustache.

can people see why letting role players do their thing in Denver was important? Bonner with a huge game while Garnett was on him most of the game and Hill coming through with 7 solid points when we needed it.

they lost by 8 against Denver, but also scared the hell out of them towards the end. Good move Pop!

Cavs have been looking like shit! Can't wait till the all-star break. After that, we should have West back and Kinsey who will need to step up since Pavlovic is out up to 6 weeks.

Can't stay healthy for shit! First Gibson for a few weeks, then Z for a few weeks while Gibson was out, then West breaks his wrist and out till after all-star break and then Kinsey gets hurt and now Pavlovic for a few weeks. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/frown.gif.a3531fa0534503350665a1e957861287.gif

Amazing we have the record we do. Hopefully the time off will do us some good.

One good thing though.

Mo Willams is an ALLSTAR................finally!

 

[bigbangtheory 5,000+ posts]

Woot, Willams showing why he should have been an all star from the get go! 44 pts and a win over the SUNS.

Wish I could have seen it.

Hope Z is not hurt again............on paper says he only played 5 minutes....//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/frown.gif.a3531fa0534503350665a1e957861287.gif Lose him again for a lenghty time and it will hurt us more than before.

Injuries happen, but this ish is crazy!

J/K. He lit the Suns up tonight. I didn't get to watch it but but I guess he was completely LIGHTS OUT. Especially in the 1st half.

Dwyane Wade Had Wild Marijuana *** Parties, And You Weren't InvitedBy Rick Chandler, 10:30 AM on Tue Feb 10 2009, 19,551 views

The fun just never seems to end for Dwyane Wade. If it's not divorce proceedings or failed business ventures, it's an ex-business associate telling tales of drug-fueled *** parties at the NBA star's condo.

According to Jose Lambiet of the Palm Beach Post, former Wade business partner Richard Von Houtman said he witnessed Wade smoking pot, and that that he saw "remnants of *** parties" at a Miami Beach apartment used by Wade, who was married, and his entourage.

"The man isn't what people worldwide think he is," Von Houtman said Sunday in an extensive interview. "He and his friends are just a bunch of idiots. I mean, I'm in Chicago at a charity party in 2007, and weed is being passed around and Wade takes a hit. In front of everybody.

"I got sucked into doing business with him because he has a first-class media persona, the new Michael Jordan. He was that good guy, father-of-the-year, celebrity who had his head on his shoulder. I found out after a year he was not like that."

Von Houtman rented Wade a $1.7 million, two-story condo in the Spear Building on Miami Beach for $20,000 in 2007 and '08. He turned it over to Wade and his childhood friend Marcus Andrews to use as headquarters for their marketing company, Wade Global Enterprises. But, according to Van Houtman, it also became a headquarters for sexy time.

"They'd have these parties in there two or three times a week," Von Houtman said. "There were always dozens of people in there. Rappers, Dwyane and his entourage, women they'd pick up in clubs. They (Wade and Andrews) both made it clear to me how their goal in life is to have *** with as many women as possible."

It's worth noting that Wade's publicist says that Van Houten's claims are "fairy tales." Wasn't it just a short while ago that Wade was the ultimate super-religious, happily married straight arrow? When did evil Dwyane escape the Phantom Zone?

Jesus, Durant with 46 in 30 minutes yesterday in the rookie/sophmore game.

That is pretty dam impressive!

Kid will be an all-star next year. Kinda surprised he didn't make it this year. Only if he played for a better team.

Anybody else watching the all-star action this weekend?
