    Barbosa is a scrappy little fucker. Definitely would take him on my team.

    There you go: I was wrong about the C's falling apart without Rondo.

    Just beat the Raptors for their 5th straight. Down 10 going into the 4th. KG had a strong game with 27 and 10. Barbosa was crucial in the 4th.

    It helps that besides the Heat, they've played a ridiculously easy schedule since Rondo went down. The Clippers were the only good team in the bunch, and they've been pretty bad without Paul. Despite that, they are playing better than I expected them to.

    KG's 27 are the most he's scored in the regular season in 5 years. Don't know why that seems strange.

    Kobe and Nash tell Howard to basically just suck it up and play ball. Howard, shockingly, is a little bitter about that.

    Why should anyone believe Howard will sign long-term with the Lakers?

    I didn't think anyone did.

    KG has passed 25,000 career points.

    The Lakers are blowing assholes tonight.

    And Dwight Howard (fill in expletive).

    Great article on the "Next Big Thing" in the NBA. Canadian Andrew Wiggins.

    I'm not sure who gets the worse end of that deal. I'm surprised Thibs would want to get rid of someone who can rebound and play defense, except that he would be getting rid of someone who often doesn't seem to want to.
