    Anybody catching this OT game between the Spurs and Thunder? I'm afraid to switch over out of fear we might blow it against the T-Pups and miss it!

    I see Blair is absolutely desecrating OKC. Hopefully, this monster performance will stop these mind-boggling >15 min outings he's been getting

    Looks like we've got a good one going on between LA and Dallas too.

    Nothing can top the Knicks and Sixers earlier, though. :p

    Don't know if you watched the whole game, but the Thunder didn't come to play tonight. The Spurs came and focused and in sync and blew out to a 39-20 lead. Even when the Thunder came back, I could tell they didn't have it. Their last 4 games (all at home), the Thunder haven't played well.

    Blair was abusive tonight. He played better than TD would have and the Spurs needed every bit of his 28/21. This also illustrates why the Thunder need a legit big man in the middle.

    Nah, didn't catch much of any other games besides that triple OT prolonged madness.

    I guess we also missed another good one between LA/Dallas. Didn't read, watch or see any highlights yet but I saw the headline was you-know-who hitting another game winner.

    Dirk hit a 3 to tie it. Kobe hit a jumper with about 20 something seconds left. After that Dallas missed their shot and it was Free Throws after that for the Lakers.

    Thanks for the recap. Two ridiculously clutch stars going head-to-head I guess. Too bad for Dirk one of those guys just so happens to be superhuman.

    No problem. Even though Kobe hit the game winning shot you can tell his back was giving him problems this game by the way he was running up and down the court gingerly. This was in impressive win for the Lakers without Pasol and a hobbled Kobe. At one point Kobe went like 5 straight possessions without even touching the ball it seemed.

    Right now Andrew Bynum is balling. If he could find a way to play like this while Gasol is in the lineup they will be absolutely scary.

    That's Manu being Manu and it affected the outcome of the game.
