The big news today was from Austin as Kevin Durant declared for the draft. Boston and Memphis should be happy to hear that. It' Greg Oden's turn next. On the floor, tough loss for the Clip-joint in overtime. Not only did they lose to a Hornets team without Tyson Chandler and Desmond Mason, they also wasted a great 37 point night by Elton Brand, and they lost because they couldn't contain David West, who had 33 and Devin Brown, who had 25. Clippers did well to tie the game, but a big letdown in OT as David West hit 3 straight baskets. Now they are half a game behind the Warriors.
Richard Jefferson had 35 and Vinanity had 31 as the Nets beat the Wizards in a close one. Tawn's 26 was not enough as DeShawn Stevenson and Jarvis Hayes didn't come through today. The Miami Heat lost again to Charlotte in back-to-back games. Daddy missed the game and Wade is not in full force yet. He had 14 points in 21 minutes. Walter Herrmann had 20 and Gerald Wallace had 24 for the Cats. This Argentinian dude Herrmann is pretty smooth.
LA Clippers @ NO/OK Hornets - 100-103 (OT)
New Jersey @ Washington - 96-92
Interesting games on the board for Apr 11-Th (Wednesday)
Denver @ Utah - Can a hot Denver team beat their not-so-hot division rival on the road?
Orlando @ Detroit - Orlando better step up for this potential playoff preview.
