NBA Game Action: 10/30/2014

Westbrook to the locker room.

 

Basketball Gods did not want Russ to have his own team.

Kidding, hope he's OK.

Looked like Westbrook got his hand caught in another player's jersey going for a rebound. On the way to the locker room, a fan (Clips?) said or threw something or him. He stopped to jaw with him, but security intervened.

Only word is that WB's unlikely to return. If he's out any length of time OKC may have a hard time making the playoffs.

 

One thing you can always count on is that most fans only pay attention to defense when there's a funny youtube video involved.

Uhh they aren't that good defensively. Lebron will do hi job and Varejao is a hustle defender but Irving and Love are two player that compete with Harden for the title as the worst star defender. Seeing how point guard and power forward are the positions with the most talent, it can be pretty worrisome.

Offensively, they have no weaknesses. Irving, Love and LeBron are very synergy compatible.

 

Damn, you're quick JR!

 

Great ball movement by the Knicks:

^ J.R. beat me to the Westbrook tweet;

 

If the Clippers are gonna play like that against no WB nor Durant.... They'll be lucky with the 4th seed due to a weak division....

Rox looking good at 2-0 with double digit road wins to start the season for the first time in 6 years.....

 

PJ3 is the man!

 

Perry Jones: 28 pts on 15 shots

 

Somehow, SOMEHOW!, the Thunder are still in this. Impressive.

 

Perry Jones about to show the world he's on Durant's level?

 

Perry Jones is the new Rashard Lewis: passed on 3 times by the Rockets!
