Richard Jefferson (photo. Zandy Mangold)No one really thought the Nets were gonna be the ones to snap the Rockets’ win streak, but the potential was at least there for a competitive game, what with Jersey’s size advantage up front and the dual threat of Vince and Richard Jefferson. Didn’t happen. T-Mac put up an easy 19 points as Houston won its 19th straight … The score wasn’t close, but at least all of the Nets didn’t just roll over and take it. Jefferson threw down a sick baseline dunk over Dikembe Mutombo (5 blks) in the second half, then gave Deke the finger-wave. When referee Joey Crawford whistled RJ for a tech, he lost it and started screaming at Crawford, having to be held back by Josh Boone. (Although it really looked like one of those fugazi “Hold me back!” moments, where if you actually let the guy go he wouldn’t do anything anyway.) Crawford handled the situation beautifully, allowing RJ to vent before saying something that changed Jefferson’s mood from volatile to laughing in a split-second … Every coach has their own ideas on how to guard LeBron. Portland’s Nate McMillan went with the “Everyone Gets a Turn” strategy. Brandon Roy, Travis Outlaw, Martell Webster, Joel Przybilla — all of them took a spin trying to handle LeBron yesterday, and McMillan always seemed to let ‘Bron go 1-on-1 with whoever was in front of him. And on the times ‘Bron was doubled as he got closer to the rim, he was hitting the open man consistently. The dagger was a drive-and-kick where LeBron (24 pts, 10 rebs, 11 asts) drew everyone in black towards him and skipped a pass to Anderson Varejao for a wide-open dunk. We’re just surprised ‘Bron still trusts AV to produce in the last couple minutes of a close. We all remember Game 4 of last year’s Finals … With the Cavs ahead by one and six minutes left, Damon Jones took an off-balance three with a lot of time left on the shot clock and almost got the ball stuck between the rim and the backboard. Cleveland color analyst Austin Carr’s reaction: “Hmmm.” After a few seconds of dead silence from Carr and the Cavs’ play-by-play guy, Carr finally figured out a polite way to say that Damon’s shot selection was atrocious. Of course when LeBron took a similar shot and hit it a couple minutes later with Cleveland up one, no one complained. But he can do that … No more Dwyane Wade in the lineup and no head coach in the picture means Ricky Davis can thrive in anarchy. Ricky Buckets scored 27 last night against the Clippers in the winner for “Least-Watched Game of the Night,” but actually didn’t let loose with the cannon too bad, only taking 14 shots in the process. With a chance to win it at the end, Ricky uncorked a jumper that bounced around the rim and out … Is it some kind of record that the Clippers won a game in which two of their starters (Quinton Ross and Josh Powell) didn’t score? For that matter, how would you feel paying full price for tickets to a game where your starters included Josh Powell, Daequan Cook and Mark Blount … And speaking of the Heat, they finally got rid of Smush Parker. If he clears waivers (somehow we think he will), Smush can be picked up by any team (somehow we think he won’t) … Looking a lot more focused and sharp, the Spurs weren’t letting the Nuggets beat them twice in a four-day span. Especially at home. Tim Duncan put up 23 points, 18 boards and 3 blocks in the win, getting a lot of feeds from Manu, who handed out 14 dimes … Interesting subtle moment where Duncan got the ball in the lane, took a few seconds trying to get a shot off, and when he realized he was bottled up, passed it out to Manu before hustling to get out of the lane and avoid a three-seconds call. If that were Shaq (or any number of superstar big men), he would have just stood there and not been called for anything regardless … Could you tell Allen Iverson (28 pts) had a broken finger? Because we couldn’t … Kelvin Sampson was in the San Antonio crowd looking, well, like he didn’t want anyone to notice he was there … At least it was efficient. Reggie Evans got worked over by Kevin Garnett, who scored 26 points on him, but on only 14 shots of short-term torture. KG added 12 boards and led the C’s to a win against the feisty Sixers. Boston went up 15-0 to start the game, but Philly came back and made it interesting for a while before the Celtics racked up win #50. Sam Cassell was scoreless, turned the ball over twice and committed four fouls in about 5 minutes off the bench. You’d like to think that won’t become a trend … Triple-double for Hedo Turkoglu, going for 23 points, 10 boards and 13 dimes in a win over the Hawks … Marvin Williams‘ dunk on half the Orlando roster was nice, but the best part of that play was Zaza Pachulia — who’d been knocked down on the play — starting to get up but seeing Marvin barreling down the lane and basically laying back down … It’s tough to really blame him because the game was utterly depressing to watch for anyone who isn’t a Mavs fan, but Zach Randolph’s body language throughout Mavs/Knicks was pretty horrid. As the Mavs piled up open dunks and uncontested jumpers left and right, Z-Bo was either hanging his head, slumping his shoulders, rolling his eyes or pointing at a teammate like “That’s YOUR man!” … We’re out like Riles …

Hedo should’ve been an all star.
But then again so should’ve B-Diddy and probably Camby.
And Shaq does get three second calls .. sometimes., didn’t he get a couple on Sunday?
Anyone think Nuggets make playoffs? I vote no.
Richard Jefferson is a herb.
March 11th, 2008 at 7:20 am
Flying-Dutchman says:
The Jefferson thing was pretty funny. Saw the highlights on SC.
I agree with YoungFed, Howard def Orlando best player. As for Turk, right place, right team.
BTW: My NBA Live 08(PS3) game keeps stuffing up, its got more glitchs then.. I dunno lol >:(
March 11th, 2008 at 7:20 am
Celts Fan says:
na man, it’s definitely Hedo. He’s the best offensive player on the 3rd best team in the East. He does all the things that Rashard Lewis is getting paid to do. Kaman is the best player on a horrible team in the West. Kaman’s definitely second (at worst, could pull the upset) and would win in a lot of years, he just picked a bad year to have his breakout year.
March 11th, 2008 at 7:22 am
Celts Fan says:
*Hedo definitely Most Improved, Dwight’s obviously the best player on the Magic.
March 11th, 2008 at 7:26 am
Celts Fan says:
Word, Camby and Baron shouldn’t have been All-Stars (who do you take off the team?) Camby would’ve been the 3rd Nugget, and Denver’s not good enough to have 3 guys and Camby’s fighting for a big man spot, the only guy you could argue to take off is David West, who deserved it and was playing at home, so that’s not gonna happen, and Baron got stuck fighting for a Guard spot (it shouldn’t be just guards, if anything, the voting should be by 3 positions: PGs, SG/SF (they’re infinitely more similar than a 1 and a 2) and PF/C. If they did it like that, I’d agree w/ you that Baron should’ve made the team, but he got stuck behind a few too many good guards (none of whom you can really argue as undeserving, so it was just an unfortunate numbers game)

Yall ready for this-D.O.C.
QUOTE OF THE DAY:
“I feel like we’re different, but I feel like at the same time, with our style of play, there’s no reason why we shouldn’t have beat that team,” Noah said. “I think Detroit’s a great team, but I still feel like we’re better than them, really. I feel like we’re a better team.”
GTFOH…and yes thats get the fuk outta here.
March 11th, 2008 at 7:41 am
Top Gun says:
Hedo’s the best player for the magics, at this point of the season. Howard was killing at the beginning of the season, but since has cooled down. Hedo’s an all around player and has been very productive especially as of late.

Prof. TX says:
Favorite line of the night. The studio announcer for the YES (NY based) network, showing highlights from Philadelphia:
“… and Andre Iguodala with the dunk. Who else plays for the 76ers? Meh.. Who knows?”

Dwight is the best player on Orlando and if you think otherwise you’re just one of them dudes who switch like homos.Hedo is ballin this year but lets not get carried away.If Dwight wasnt there they would have the same recored as Miami and Hedo would get exposed for the pussy he really is.But we will see it in the playoffs when somebody guards him for real.Younfed I like Noah said that.Thats champion words coming from a champs mouth.He never gonna think a team is better than his because of his heart.When you got dudes saying we aint shit you got a problem.And we all knew Jefferson bum ass wasnt gonna do nothing. Is there another player who dunks on cats but gets looked at as a bitch like him.

Sometimes you got play in the real world too Doc, I mean come on his team ain’t even going to the playoffs and just lost to us in a game where Sheed ain’t even play. WOW. I like cocky players too but thats just ridiculous.
March 11th, 2008 at 8:12 am
GayforRudy says:
Celtsfan,
That’s true he does have court “awareness”. I’m a Sixers fan so I know he will “try” occasionally out near the three point line. But anytime he gets caught in the paint and a player drives through there it is hands pressed against the body D. The crumpling up was just another moment of fear in that man’s life.
I forgot to add Fat Zach and Worthless Curry to the list earlier. Any other opinions about lack of effort players? Amare especially pisses me off…he is like the Bobby Abreu of basketball when he’s “crashing” the boards.
March 11th, 2008 at 8:15 am
Dennis Castro says:
Hedo makes that Orlando team go, he’s a big reason why they have that record. How many clutch shots did he hit in the last 3 months. A bunch I would say. There’s no way Orlando is that good without Hedo.
Think about it, if he wasn’t dropping buckets from the perimeter, teams could double and triple Howard with no repurcussions.
As far as the Knicks announcers not knowing the Sixers roster, that’s fine, they’ll know it plenty when the Sixers are in the playoffs and the debacle that is the Knicks 07-08 season is ingrained in the history books as one of the worst. People know the players on that roster for all the wrong reasons.
Zack Attack! Zack Randolph should be in the Knicks locker room singing Friends Forever trying to get the Knicks to gel.

I’m sorry dude, you are the Chris Berman of the Smack column comments.
All I’m saying is that adding “Hova” to someones first initial is horrible. And you said you like it and your sticking to it. That’s fine.
But, on a scale of 1 to 10 (ten being highest) your Kobe nickname is a 2. I’m just letting you know…

The Nuggets will get in. This is their remaining schedule, they just went 2-3 in last 5 but they also just played Houston, Phoenix, Utah, and San Antonio 2x’s. I gets much easier for them and they have several games to play still versus the teams above them:
Should be wins:
Memphis 3x’s
Seattle 2x’s
Philly
Sacramento
Clippers
NJ
These are the hardest left:
Toronto 2x’s
Golden State 2x’s (8 seed)
Phoenix 2x’s (6 seed)
Detroit, Dallas (7 seed), Utah, Houston 1x
If they play to their potential of course. They finished up last year really well. AI isn’t going to let up, he is determined. Broken finger or not, he has played through worse!

March 11th, 2008 at 9:51 am
doc says:
Exactly girl and Hedo is not on Manu level either.Hes just a good player in a perfect situation with a monster down low who DOES get double and triple teamed every time down and hits his shot sometimes.He hit 1 buzzerbeater that they showed constantly now everybody thinks hes the reason Orlando wins please.Yall mines will call him H-Hova shit all the fans he got.Who is seriously picking him over Sheed.Not the coaches who watch these pricks up close everyday, which is why he wasnt a all-star.They know he is frauding right now and soon as Tayshaun and dudes like that get motivated in the playoffs its a wrap for him.Shit I seen Thaddeus Young lock his ass down and beat him by 30.I hope the Sixers see them in round 1 because I know just how soft he is.He did the same shit with Sac and never did a thing in the playoffs.Peja was hurt for a while one of those years and he did the same bullshit.

Yeah. Maybe one of these days, dime writers will actually watch a Rockets game. Its so obvious they watch SportCenter hightlights. The rockets have won 10 games in a row by double digits. The avg deficit during their 19 game streak is like 18 points. They’re not just getting lucky, they’re blowing everybody out. Everybody keeps saying wait till they play a real team but they killed NO (2x), Dallas, Lebron Hova (sorry couldnt resist) 2x, Denver, etc.
I know y’all are waiting for them to play LAL this weekend. The more you disrespect them, the more likely they’ll keep winning. So yes the Lakers are probably going down too. And the Rockets will be the #1 seed soon enough.
March 11th, 2008 at 10:04 am
SWAT says:
Dennis castro that line about Zack attack…hilarious!! Man i’m at work lmao! Real talk though Hedo is balling but like yall said before he’s a choke artist and he’s done the same thing before with sac town and dropped the ball when it counted. Now Manu has been nice as of lately but best palyer on the spurs…nope i dont think so.
March 11th, 2008 at 10:07 am

Nick, his point is Luther not missing and Novak shooting lights out from the arc. The point is not about them putting up incredible numbers. Nobody on the Rockets does that. Thats why its so crazy how they play team ball. Plus the game was over before the end of the 3rd.
March 11th, 2008 at 10:57 am
doc says:
The Rockets are ballin but its the same thing with T-Mac every year.The facts speak for themselves and he will lose in the 1rst round even if yall win every game left in the regular season and he will cry on the podium like somebody killed his girlfriend just like every other year until he proves otherwise.At least hes better than H-Hova.
March 11th, 2008 at 11:08 am
Nick Barnes says:
Head was like 4-for-4, it’s not like he hit 10 straight without a miss. And Novak hit 3 threes. A lot of guys can do that. I’m just saying is don’t act like those two were lighting it up and deserve a bunch of ink.

OrlandoBoi says:
Seriously yall need to stop acting like you anything about the Magic…
Hedo choking? If hitting 5 buzzer beaters this year is choking then i’ll take it.
Rashard being a bust? You don’t see any Magic fans complaining do you? He plays in the system.
Dwight Howard has slowed down? Then why are his averages the same? 26 and 16 last night.
Get educated…Cant wait till the playoffs the world will see…

Either that or of course…..that trailer park has lost that wi-fi connection again. Anyway everyone better enjoy while that lame is taken his meds.
Address the West:
Lakers-You will see them in the finals of the West, and if anyone can stop Houston they have a great “chance”…not to say they will. Kobe is ridiculous.
San-An - They are the defending champs for a reason, and the bottom line is they got the potion and until a team or GOD forbid injuries can stop them, drink up.
Houston - The team that everyone wants to face in the playoffs based on previous history, and the team everyone doesn’t want to face based on current play. Pick ya poison!
Phoenix - Built for the playoffs and that is when teams should worry. All these games now are grapefruit games, and they just trying to get sufficient ranking. Come playoff time, they are going to go so hard.
N.O. - Real new to the game, but they should take that “Why can’t we win now” motivation and contend hard. They will hinge more on Tyson than expected.
Utah - Who can really stop Boozer? I mean in thinking back, who has really ever consistently held him down? There it is, if you can stop Booz you should get them in 7, if you can’t …peace out!
G.S. - Best place to play in the NBA and you have to think they almost want that 8th seed just to try to run a 1 seed out the building. Very dangerous squad but their inconsistency will send them to an early summer.
Dallas - Same team really, Kidd won’t make that big of difference. It will come down to Dirk in the clutch and if that fade-away aint fallin …it’s a wrap!
Denver - No good thing will come as long as G.K. is the coach PERIOD.

If Denver doesn’t make the playoffs with that roster do you blow it up?
I didnt check the salaries, but if you’re Denver would you do this deal:
GS gets: Melo, and some throw in player
DN gets: Ellis, Beindris(which will help Camby out big time), and a protected 1st rounder

GEE, that’s what I’m saying about PHX. The regular season is just the primer for the playoffs.

March 11th, 2008 at 12:09 pm
dagwaller says:
Dennis, you cracked me up with that ZaZa Hova comment.
Good question - I would do it, though. Ellis replaces Melo’s scoring punch, Biedrins adds the size, and both of them are younger than Melo if I’m not mistaken. I don’t know if GS does it, though. It would depend on the other player.
Hedo HAS been the Magic’s best player over the last little bit. If there was no Dwight, yea, that team would suck. Then again, before Hedo blossomed…well, just look at last year’s record. Reminds me of the TD/Manu dynamic. TD’s always going to be the REAL MVP of that team, but Manu’s the one winning games right now.
March 11th, 2008 at 12:10 pm
GEE...Yeaaaaaaaaa....just like GEE says:
djKianoosh agreed, you can’t beat bball at this time.
Dennis (you ain’t related to Fidel???) Yea Phx will be a real problem come playoffs.
I ain’t a PHX fan either.
How bout I got my wife all up on the Rockets right now, she be trying to let me know updates and stuff. Beautiful.
She is an Atl. fan though so next game she might not be as hyped about the streak.

Would kaman be putting up those numbers if Brand was in the team? No. Turkoglu is playing in a healthy, full-strength O-Town side.
Hedo is doing these numbers as one of three options. Kaman is first option out of necessity. Fair play to Captain Caveman but his numbers are bloated due to Brand being man-down.

Gee, nice pick up on the name. That scene is one of my favorites from Seinfeld.
Southern Businessman: Now you wouldn’t be trying to pass off Dominicans as Cubans now, would you?
Kramer: Me, of course not! I know Castro’s brother!
Southern Businessman: What’s his name?
Kramer: Uh, um, Dennis!
(Or something to that effect)
I think the Melo trade works for both teams. Melo would thrive under Don Nelson, and Denver gets some much needed defensive help with Beindrins, an up and coming guard in Ellis, and a protected 1st rounder.
Imagine a back court with AI and Ellis. Crazy, yes they would be undersized, but they could run a zone now that they have Beindrins and Camby grabbing boards and taking up space. I think they need a Quinton Ross type of player, an excellent perimiter defender, to take them to the next level.

how about a Baron Davis/Allen Iverson backcourt? wouldn’t AI fit GS’s style more than Melo?

There’s no way G-State makes that trade. Who the hell is going to rebound or play defense? The Warriors have no size as it is, and they get enough production from their SF spot. What they need is a big man who can play in the post, defend and rebound, not another wing player who only plays on one side of the ball.

What is this!? says:
^^ Damn, Iverson has the third highest ppg average in the history of the league, (and despite the rings he got with Shaq, has a better all around career then Kobe’s) and he is put towards the bottom of the all time “SG’s” list? I guess it does pay to be taller huh? That guy stays getting no love, as highly rated as he is, I always say that he will always be underrated because of his size.
I don’t care what nobody says, for someone that size to dominate a league the way that Iverson has is unheard of. And what is the “small drop off” thing about? As if Kobe is in the same space as MJ and everyone else just needs to fall back? LOL!! Kobe is the best player in the league right now, but ya’ll are killing me being all on that dudes nuts though. It should be MJ then “small drop off” then list everyone else. SMH

what is this?
are u sure no one that size has dominated the league
jum check all the players that have led the nba in assists and scoring the same season and trust me ull find some one shorter and better than iverson
btw who cares if hes is short
so if a player thats 4 feet tall scored 5ppg he would be the best ever?
