For the first time ever, NBA fans can vote via social media networks, including Facebook and Twitter, and Sina Weibo and Tencent QQ in China.
For real, this is stupid.

How about fan voting all together?

This has since changed but a couple weeks ago Amare, Bynum and Shane Battier all had more votes than Varejao. The majority of fans dont know what they're doing, how does a guy that hasnt stepped foot on the court this year still have over 90,000 votes?

"Ibaka getting the respect from officials."

^ This is apparently good enough for the announcers to explain the un-called rake to the face that Ibaka gave Kaman on that last trip.

The Clippers are infinitely more athletic than the Celtics.

That was the best...but that was also after he had a huge careless turnover leading to 2 OKC quick points. In regulation he had a turnover that led to OKC tying it up. He also tried to drive the lane in a tie game with 30 seconds left and was stripped...you give the fucking ball to Dirk, and you GTFO.

It was funny to watch, and I even like OJ. He was 1/7 tonight, though, and 10/40 over the last week.

I'm not sure how playoff ready they are but Chris Paul and 4 guys who can touch the ceiling is pretty tough to stay with.

He really has been playing great.. 49% from three is second only to Matt Bonner.

If we hadn't drafted Dion I would've wanted to go after him.

Odom seems to be getting into basketball shape.

Will the Clippers get Grant Hill and Chauncey Billups into the mix in the next few weeks? Those two are a wealth of experience....Billups will probably mix in and Hill much more sparingly, but has useable parts still.

This Clippers team is crazy deep. 10 players have already scored in the first quarter in a half. Defense is absent which makes it seem like they are up about 25 but are only up 11.

Jamal Crawford does the craziest stuff.

I've seen guys score 25 in a half and not be as impressive as Crawford's 13.
