Dallas won rather easily at Cleveland. Not a good shooting night for the King. He had 31 on 12/28 shooting and that's a problem for the Cavs. More often than not, the Cavs need a perfect night from LeBron to win against good teams. He doesn't get great help on a consistent basis though his teammates can't do much if he takes 28 shots and clanks 16 of those like he did today. I like Larry Hughes since he is quite talented, but I am not sure he complements the King all that well. He is more of a really-poor man's LeBron and they need a scorer who can shoot a lot better than Hughes to run alongside LeBron. That's why a Bibby trade would have been awesome. That's also why they pursued Michael Redd before settling on Hughes few years back.
Bad loss for the Kings as the T-Wolves beat them on the road to push the Kings further back in the Western standings. Geoff Petrie needs to re-build this puppy from the ground up. He has done it before and he can do it again, but I am a little surprised he has not started the process yet. Magic got a good game from Grant Hill (24-5), but still lost at Toronto. A promising season is fast going down the drain for the Magic. Bosh had a monster night with 34-16. Tim Duncan made sure Indiana's painful slump continued as he poured in 27 to beat the Pacers 90-72.
Big win for the Paper-Clips on the road at Milwaukee as Jason Hart hit the game winner. This helps them immensely in the race for the 8-Th spot in the West. Agent-0 was back today with 42 big ones at Seattle. He won the game on a buzzer-beater with a strong drive to the hoop a day after he missed a buzzer-beating jumper to lose at Portland. That's how things roll with Agent-0 - you win some and you lose some.
Dallas @ Cleveland - 98-90
Minnesota @ Sacramento - 95-89
Interesting games on the board for Mar 22-st (Thursday)
Detroit @ Houston - Detroit has an decent record against the west.
LA Lakers @ Memphis - What will Kobe do next?
Sacramento @ Phoenix - Phoenix needs to keep winning to keep up with the Mavs.
Denver @ Chicago - Another test for the Nuggets.
