Wonder what colleges have the most NBA starters? UK? UNC?
Off the top of my head I think UK has 10 starters right now. Not sure how that relates to some of the other schools.

Still can't believe Philly gave Noel away for basically nothing.

Westbrook 45,15, and 8...but a loss.

I'm just not a Westbrook fan. Doesn't translate to wins.

What else can he do though?....his cast of help sucks. If he was on Rockets he'd have 13.5 assists a game instead of 10

I'm not hating on Westbrook. I just don't think he'll ever win anything. He could have won something with Durant but clearly Durant didn't want to play with Westbrook anymore.

I think Russ is the kind of player that wants the ball all the time, and wants to stuff the stat sheet. It makes for incredible stat lines because he's an awesome player. But it doesn't translate to championships.

I'm more impressed by his motor than his stats.

In fairness, they are like 31-9 when he gets a triple double, and awful when he doesn't.

Anyone see the epic collapse by Boston? Under 5 seconds, up 2, Bledsoe drives to the rim for a lay-up to tie it. Boston throws away the in-bounds pass and Ulis hits a long 3 at the buzzer to win it for the Suns.

Warriors got all pissy yesterday because the Knicks didn't play music during the first half of the game yesterday.

Is there a bigger group of pussies in the world than the golden state warriors?

Dirk wastes no time. About 10 game minutes for him to get 20 tonight, 30k for career.
