NBA notes - 11/28/2006

Quite a few upsets today. The Bucks beat the Lakers, Memphis beat Denver and Toronto beat the Hornets, all on the road. Good news for one of the other Western conference teams in the playoff hunt I guess. The Clippers lost to Sacramento and are still winless on the road. This was Brad Miller's second game back for the Kings. Apparently Mike Dunleavy is going to get a 4 year extension to coach the Clippers. Good choice, but things can go south any minute down there at Clipper-land.

As for the individual stars of the day, Micheal Redd scored 45 pts and outplayed Kobe. Adam Morrison had a good game for the Bobcats. He is averaging 16 pts, shooting around 40% from the field and 37% from 3-point land. Not bad for a rookie. The real stud though was Melo. Denver lost, but he had a 37-9-7 night. All of his numbers seem to have gone up from last season. Amazing, considering he averaged 26.5 pts last year. He is averaging 5 more pts, more rebounds, way more assists, better FG% and better FT% thi year. Thats impressive folks.

LA Clippers @ Sacramento - 80-93

Interesting games on the board for tomorrow, the 29-th (Wednesday)

Two big ones from the West tomorrow.

Houston @ Phoenix - Yao VS Amare again after a long time. Real test for the Suns. Are they really back and are they all the way back? We will see.
San Antonio @ Utah - Perennial contender VS latest contender. Utah has lost 2 in a row and can show they are for real with a win here.
