Another One Bites the Dust
An undefeated team gets beat, Lakers blowout West opponent. Thunder silenced again. Took a day off. Back to work.
Game of the Night: Phoenix Suns 118 VS Atlanta Hawks 114
And then there were two. Sorry Hawks, you couldn't survive one of the Western Conference heavyweights. Now only New Orleans and the Lakers are left to fight it out for league supremacy. It was a good run though. You are still leading the East and can make a deep run. It helps that you have so many different options. Against the Suns, you had two 30+ scorers in Joe Johnson and Al Horford. That is just ridiculous. It is not that common to have one player that goes for more than 30 but to have 2 in one game. Joe Johnson had 34 while Horford had 30. What is even more impressive are the shooting percentages. Al Horford had the better shooting night going 13-16 and 4-5 free throws while Johnson went 15-27 from the floor, 2-6 from downtown and 2-4 from the free throw line. However it was a costly missed shot by Johnson that ultimately sealed the victory for Phoenix. Joe added 7 rebounds and 6 assists to game high 34 points. Horford recorded 10 rebounds, 5 assists, 1 steal and 2 blocks to go with his 30 points.
Did Steve Nash finally decided to show up or did the Phoenix Suns actually knock down the shots that were assisted by Nash? I think it is the second one personally. Nash is a pass first type of point guard because he knows he can get his own when he wants. He is one of the best shooters in the league and arguably one of the best get to the basket point guards. Steve Nash showed that they are just off to a slow start and poured out 19 points, 5 rebounds and 15 assists in the win over the then undefeated Hawks. He went 7-11 from the floor and knocked down his only 3 attempt. He was also perfect from the line. Jason Richardson had the team high in points with 21. 6 Suns scored in double digits to help propel them over the Hawks.
Other scores around the league:
Philadelphia 76ers 106 VS New York Knicks 96
Golden State Warriors 97 VS Detroit Pistons 102
Minnesota Timberwolves 94 VS Houston Rockets 120
Boston Celtics 92 VS Oklahoma City Thunder 83
Portland Trailblazers 96 VS Los Angeles Lakers 121
This is a quick recap. Now up to 40-17 with my pick 'ems. Here are my picks.
San Antonio over Charlotte
Orlando over Atlanta
Golden State over Toronto
Chicago over Denver
Phoenix over Memphis
Dallas over Boston
Yes that is correct. I took Dallas over the Boston Celtics.
I think I need to sleep more. Probably a good idea.
Peace!

Eddie House?
There are still 3 undefeated teams in the NBA. Who will be the last one standing?
Game of the Night: Miami Heat 93 VS New Orleans Hornets 96
The last shot on a star studded team goes to... Eddie House? Dwayne Wade had the chance to take a shot and decided to pass to Eddie House. I really don't know what to think of the loss. You could have passed it to LeBron, or even Chris Bosh who hit a big three to bring them to 93 points. I get that he was open and that he is a long range shooter but you have to realize who has the hot hand. House went 0-7 from distance last night. Wade led the team with 28 points, 10 rebounds, 2 assists, 2 steals and 2 blocks. LeBron James had a decent night with 20 points, 7 rebounds, 10 assists, 3 steals and a block. Chris Bosh added 15 points in the loss.
LBJ turnover watch: 29 in six games.
The now 5-0 Hornets were determined to set the tone right out of the gate. They jumped out to a 14-4 lead and never looked back only giving up the lead once late in the game. Free throws were huge for New Orleans down the stretch and eventually sealed the game for them. The Hornets were led by Emeka Okafor who had a huge night. Emeka had a team high 26 points and 13 rebounds. He added an assist and a block as well. The most impressive aspect of his night was his 12-13 shooting from the floor. Shooting 92% from the floor definitely helped the Hornets secure the big win at home against a dangerous Heat team. Chris Paul had 13 points, 2 rebounds, 19 assists and 5 steals. Trevor Ariza added 13 points and 6 rebounds in the effort. Ariza also hit a couple big 3's to cool off the Heat.

That means I went 10-2 last night in my picks to bring my new total to 34-14. I think I am as shocked as you. I knew I was good but that good? Maybe you should start to bet with my picks. Here are my winners for tonight.
