Memphis Grizzlies are entertaining preliminary trade offers for Rudy Gay. Gay was once seen as a young building block for the franchise.

Houston rounding into form as a nice playoff level team with Harden leading the way beat the Bucks to go 5 games over .500 tonight
John Henson starting to look like an NBA player recently for Milwaukee 31 points and 24 rebounds in his last two games after looking totally lost last month.

Kobe crossed Barnes up while chewing on his jersey and drains the dumbest shot from just inside the 3 point line. Only Mamba.

As if things weren't already bad enough in Laker Land after the Los Angeles Lakers dropped their fourth game in five tries Sunday, a 112-105 loss to the Denver Nuggets, center Dwight Howard aggravated the sprained rotator cuff in his right shoulder. Howard will undergo an MRI on the injury Monday morning, according to the team. espn.go.com/los-angeles/nba/st...i-sore-shoulder

The Lakers and Celtics both fell apart pretty fast. I guess that's what happens when most of your key players are geriatric.

Bad news for the Lakers: Dwight suffered a torn labrum; Pau suffered a concussion; Jordan Hill has a hip injury.
Honestly trade Dwight and whoever to Brooklyn for Lopez and whoever after Lopez is eligible to be traded.
As for the fight? Looks like Kobe quickly found use for his new twitter account.

There's trash talk and then there's that. I've also always been a fan of Melo and his game and think he gets a bad wrap a lot of the times. Garnett is a punk. He plays hard but he's one of those guys who talks trash because he knows no one can really do anything. He's all show.

He plays hard but he's one of those guys who talks trash because he knows no one can really do anything. He's all show. The game is about getting into the other guys head, at some point a line may be crossed but that does not justify an attempt at physical assault. Whatever Garnett was doing, it worked. Look at the stats. I am not condoning whatever he said, but he did accomplish his goal. Dont think he is a punk by any means, but he does talk a lot. So did Bird, Jordan, Chamberlin and so on. Like I said, I dont know what he said, but Melo's wife has had much worse said about her. She is in the public eye and thus, a target for such talk by men of all walks of life.

Dont look now, but the Celtics seem to be coming together with the return of Avery Bradley
have won 4 in a row.
Jared Sullinger is begining to look like a steal in the Draft, 12 points and 16 boards in a win over Phoenix tonight
Bad news for Minnesota as Kevin Love has fractured his hand again and will miss 8-10 weeks just as the Twolves were looking like a potential playoff team.

With the way NBA rules are now about fighting, anyone who does fight is an idiot. Even Melo said he didnt want to fight Garnett, just talk to him. I think what Garnett does is smart. Would I like it if he treated me like that, Hell No. But it works to a certain extent. Any one who lets another man "talk" him into not playing his best, or throwing punches and getting suspended is the real loser. The NBA is a job, not a pick up or rec league. You cant let personal beefs cause your job performance to suffer. If I were not a Celtic fan, I would not like Garnett as much, but I could still see how smart he is. This has gone on for years in the NBA. Larry Bird was a master at talking other players right out of the game. "Logic, my dear Zoe, merely enables one to be wrong with authority."

Here come the Celtics, 6th win in a row.Rondo with another Triple Double. They are a different team with Avery Bradley in the lineup
Wizards win their 3rd in a row and two straight since John Wall came back. I think Beal and Wall are going to be a very tough back court for the next few years.

Interesting stats on the value of Avery Bradley to the Celtics.
In the first 30 games without Bradley, the Celtics scored 100.3 points per 100 possessions and allowed 102.1 points per 100 possessions. In seven games with Bradley, the Celtics have scored 104.6 points per 100 possessions and allowed 93.6 points per 100 possessions.

He's putting in the work this year and has been a double-double machine. Naturally, it is a contract year as he only got a 1yr/4mil deal from Portland last offseason. He has set himself up nicely for the summer.
