Utah 109,Nike Zoom Lebron VII(7) Women Shoes Wine, Phoenix 97
The Phoenix
defense (pictured, above) was pretty worrying in this loss.
The Suns gave up 118.5 points per 100 possessions, and while
I usually prefer to write "[the winning
team scored] 118.5 per 100 possessions," Phoenix really let this happen. The Jazz are
great, we know that they might be the best offensive team in the league when
they're at full strength (and that'll happen sometime next month,Nike Dunk SB heels Womens low top Black, righto?), but
the Suns kind of took this one off.
Yes, they were playing on the second night
of a back-to-back, taking on a pair of conference contenders in a row, but
there's still no excuse for not getting out on shooters. Shooters parked only 17 feet from the hoop, no less.
The Jazz were without Deron Williams again, same with Mehmet
Okur, but it hardly mattered as C.J. Miles (21 points on 13 shots; nice
contract) and Carlos Boozer (21 points on 15 shots, a nice 15 rebounds) poured
it in from all over.
Shaq? Not his best defensive effort, and it showed (-29) in
the stat sheet.
Houston
100, Oklahoma City 89
A few things to take from this ...
Robert Swift started. He started and he played 25 minutes
with six points and eight rebounds and two assists with two blocks and he
started. Jokes aside, good news. Albeit three years too late.
Russell Westbrook needed 14 shots to score 14 points, he had
more turnovers (three) than assists (two), and he may not ‘ave a clue, but he
is the future. And he had five steals in 28 minutes.
Houston shot over 50 percent, Yao Ming hit for 19 points on
just eight shots (with 12 boards and three blocks),Nike Dunk SB heels Womens low top Blue Black Silver, and I can't help but really
like this team.
San Antonio 86, Los
Angeles Clippers 83
No, this isn't the same box score from Sunday night, and
the Spurs pulled out another one. On the road. Without Manu Ginobili. Without
Tony Parker. Bang on, guys.
The Clippers are just a bunch of vets, but not in a good
way. 10 free throw attempts (making eight, as if that matters) in 48 minutes of
play? Who does that?
Baron Davis, both in looking at the guy and watching his
stats, is reminding of the Baron Davis that shot the Warriors out of the
playoffs by Thanksgiving back in 2005-06. He took 17 shots on Monday, making
five. He only got to the line twice, and made one of his freebies. Baron missed
all eight of his three-point attempts. The Clippers can't score efficiently to
save their lives (29th in offense, only ahead of the Thunder), and
Baron's a huge reason why.
Los Angeles
is in a conference that only lets you lose 37 games before you're out of the
postseason bracket, and the Clips have already thrown up nine losses in 10
attempts. Things aren't looking good.
