still remember watching one of those nba hype up segments a decade ago covering this fool's rookie year and thinking at the time, "damn this kid is dumb" :grin:
Philly gets their first win, Boston rebounds from Dallas, Minnesota takes one, Spurs destroy the Pelicans, Rockets use momentum (and maybe Howard offensively for once), Thunder quiet the rookie, Dallas continues to surprise, Clippers lose and fold their franchise, Warriors move one step closer to being the biggest upset loss in the playoffs ever, and Kobe makes 3 of 15 in a loss
Philadelphia is within five losses of matching last season's team-worst start and six away from tying the NBA record for the longest skid to begin a season, set by the 2009 New Jersey Nets.
Gregg Popovich just said that Manu Ginobili will play Saturday when the Spurs host the Grizzlies. Ginobili missed Wednesday's game and is out tonight.
Forward Martell Webster is expected to miss the rest of the season after having hip surgery. He hasn't appeared in a game this season and was a first-round draft pick in 2005.
Mozgov suffered a strained right deltoid during the team's win over the Bucks Thursday, which will knock him out 10 days to two weeks. Mozgov is averaging 7.9 points and 4.6 rebounds per game this season.
If Chicago hopes to hand the Warriors their first loss of the season, it must do so without Rose as coach Fred Hoiberg said he's not playing due to an ankle injury. Rose missed the Bulls' previous game as well.
Knicks rookie Kristaps Porzingis says that one of the players he models his game off of is Thunder star Kevin Durant. "Hes one of the guys I look up to and learn from, Porzingis says. K.P. watching KD
Chandler Parsons has had his three most efficient performances of the season in the last three games, scoring 37 points on 16-of-23 shooting in 60 minutes. "This past week has been a real quantum leap just in terms of his legs being under him and his rhythm being better," coach Rick Carlisle said. "Things are moving in the right direction."
Mark Cuban said he didn't remember where Rudy Gobert was drafted. It was 9 spots after Shane Larkin. "Whoops," Cuban said.
Things aren't going well for the league's only winless team. Hornets C Al Jefferson alone already has 14 points through one quarter. Philly has 19 points as they trail by 11.
Lol. How Cuban has been absolutely crappy at drafting but keeping a team afloat year after year has to do a lot with Carlisle so big props to him

What kj jd of injury he has? I missed it completely. So far this game sux. Shame on the warriors for letting a mummy score on them.
Do not sleep on it now but Mavericks have had an impressive start to the season and oddly enough one of the a top 10 defense and chandler is still sitting as he heals.
