NBA notes - 12/20/2006

A rare PPD today on the NBA scoreboard as the Suns-Nuggets game got postponed due to a blizzard in Denver. AI couldn't fly into Denver either. They are now hoping he'll be there for their game on Friday. The most interesting game today was played at MSG between the Knicks and the Bobcats. It went in to second overtime as Jamal Crawford missed long jump-shots both at the end of regulation and the first overtime. The game was still tied with a few ticks on the clock. So the Knicks inbounded the ball straight to the basket area and David Lee tipped it in without even looking at the basket. It was an amazing end to the game which had MJ in the audience. He was there with Charles Oakley and Patrick Ewing.

Kobe had another weird game after fouling out yesterday. He was on the bench for the first 8 mins of the fourth quarter as his team was making a comeback from 10 down. The Lakers won another game, this time without a lot of help from Kobe. Lebron James lost again on the road. He had a good game, but Vinsanity was even better and the Nets won. I think the Cavs need to make a trade or something to kick-start this team. Chris Paul had a great dunk on Dwight Howard today though the Magic won the game. Milwaukee crushed Miami at home. The game was not as close as I thought it would be.

Phoenix @ Denver – PPD
Cleveland @ New Jersey – 111-113
Miami @ Milwaukee – 95-121

Interesting games on the board for tomorrow, the Dec 21-th (Thursday)

Detroit @ Cleveland – 15-8 VS 14-10. This should be a good game and a bigger game for the Cavs than the Pistons.
