I'd think Sacramento-LA would be more of a rivalry for recent memory than Detroit-LA. And certainly more than Sacramento-Dallas.

Not most of these teams are actually rivals today or yesteryear except probably the Celtics and Lakers... how about the Bulls and Pistons hooking it up this week!

Just saw that Shaq had to be helped off the court in the 1st quarter against the Bulls...he caught the ball under the basket and when he came down, Othella Harrington was under the basket laying down after Wade drove into the lane, and Shaq landed on top of him then grabbed his knee.

And the Bulls pull one out in OT. I know Okafor's numbers are better, but if Ben isn't a serious contender for rookie of the year, I swear to God I'll...well I probably won't do much, but I'll be pretty displeased.

Lakers beat the Celts 104-95. That made me day. Odom and Mihm both had double doubles. They wore the powder blue uni's which always look awesome.

 

But they were still getting killed on the boards. Maybe Boozer would be a good idea.

Okafor numbers had been dropping actually. I say Ben should win this thang if nothing else because of the bulls success which he is a major part of. hell, he has basically been their 4th quarter offense in about a dozen games this year.

Sonics win it at the end against Houston on their worst 3pt shooting night of the season going 3 for 24.

At least the Rockets were in the game all the way through...

If the rookie of the year award was based purely on the fourth quarter, Ben would have it in the bag easily. It's a damn shame that it isn't!

Shareef Abdur-Rahim returned tonight for Portland against the Lakers, conveniently just in time to show the rest of the league he's healthy enough for a trade, though Reef's been involved in trade rumors pretty much since the day he arrived in Portland and they haven't happened yet so who knows.

Hasn't Houston gone through like half the league's guards already

Yeah but all those others guys sucked. Mike James is actually good.

Actually, Sura's done a helluva job at the point. Just that Van Gundy's facination with old Knicks means we've been subjected to Charlie Ward and Rod Strickland so far this season as well.

 

Besides, we got Moochie Norris, so we get him and his horrible contract back. I guess it's fitting, the Rockets signed him to that abomination of a deal.
