Didn't have a chance to catch all twelve games on Wednesday night? We got you covered!
Hawks edge Grizz for their 4th straight, and they do so without All-Star,
Joe Johnson, who will undergo surgery (right, shooting elbow) on Thursday to remove loose objects.
Horford leads the way for Atlanta with
20, five other Hawks reached double figures.
Rudy Gay had
23 and
Mike Conely added
22, in the loss. Memphis loses for just the 2nd time in six games, Atlanta sweeps the season series at
2-0.
The Thunder need triple OT to beat the Nets,
123-120 in NJ.
Russell Westbrook explodes for
38 points,
15 rebounds,
9 assists and
3 steals, Westbrook also scored all
13 of the Thunder's overtime points. Apparently Russ read my point guard power rankings and is none too happy with ranking #2, behind
Derrick Rose, point taken. Jeff Green had
37 as the Thunder do it without
Kevin Durant (sprained knee).
Brook Lopez notched
28 points and
10 boards, Jordan Farmar had a career high
28 points and a career high
52 minutes, in the loss.
Devin Harris did not play (knee strain) and is day-to-day.
The Raptors knock of the Wiz,
127-108,
John Wall returned after missing two games and
Gilbert Arenas vanished, shooting
1-10 from the floor and finishing with just
7 points. Wall had
19 points and
9 assists, in the loss. The Wiz face Portland, Phoenix and the Lakers in their next three.
DeMar DeRozan had
20 to lead all scorers,
Sonny Weems and
Andre Bargnani each added
18, there were seven Raptors in all to reach double figures in the route.
Boston Drops Portland by four,
99-95, at the TD Garden.
Paul Pierce led all scorers with
28 points, while
KG added
17 and
Glen "Big Baby" Davis had
16.
Wesley Matthews was Portland's high man with
23,
Andrew Miller had
20 and
Brandon Roy and
LaMarcus Aldridge both had
18 in the loss. Boston wins It's fifth straight, while on the flip side of that, the Blazers lose their fifth straight.
Pistons at Heat, Miami (
11-8) rolls past the Pistons by
25, to win
97-72. Detroit is hardly a worthy opponent, but, I'm sure it will do for the Heat, who have struggled this season. Lebron James led the way with
18,
Bosh and
Wade helped out with
16 apiece. Detroit continues to have their problems on both ends of the floor, Rookie,
Greg Monroe had
15 and
Charlie Villanueva added
10 to be the only two Pistons in double figures. Detroit is
6-13 on the season and will probably land somewhere in the lottery for next season.
Orlando storms into Chicago to defeat the Bulls,
107-78. The Magic (
14-4), led by
Jameer Nelson (
24) and
Vince Carter (
22) looked to embarrass the Bulls on their homecourt, and succeeded.
Brandon Bass had
17 and
Dwight Howard and
Rashard Lewis both struck for
13, to round out all Magic players in double figures.
Noah had
16,
Derrick Rose had
15 and
Taj Gibson finished with
10, in the loss.
Carlos Boozer made his highly anticipated Chicago debut, but, only managed to score
5 point in
21 minutes of play. Tail of the tape is that Orlando has now won five straight and did so by outrebounding the Bulls,
44-21.
The Hornets stung the Bobcats,
89-73.
David West led the way with
22,
Chris Paul turned in
9 and
14 assists, while
Emeka Okafor grabbed a double-double with
14 and
13. The Hornets (
13-5) look to have a good thing going, but, could meet some tough times against division foes such as Dallas and San Antonio.
Gerald Wallace had
18,
Dj Augustin and
Boris Diaw both supplied
13 and
Stephen Jackson (suspension) didn't play during the loss.
Dallas (
14-4) kept their strong start alive by beating Minnesota (4-14),
100-86.
Shawn Marion led the way for the Mavs with
16,
Jason Terry had
12,
Dirk Nowitzki and
Caron Butler both chipped in with
10.
Michael Beasley had
16, while
Kevin Love and
Darko Milicic both connected for
10, in the loss.
Houston stuns the Lakers,
109-99, behind
Kevin Martin's 22 points.
Shane Battier had
17 and
Luis Scola supplied
14 in their payback victory over LA. Houston has struggled with
Yao Ming and
Aaron Brooks both suffering early injuries, my projected "second best team in the West" has not done so hot thus far. Maybe this is the big win they needed to right the ship. The Lakers (
13-6) were led by
Kobe Bryant's 27 and
Lamar Odom's 25, although it wasn't enough to get the W.
Denver bests the Bucks,
105-94, behind
24 from
Nene,
JR Smith also kicked in
20 points and
10 rebounds in the win.
John Salmons scored
21 for the Bucks and
Corey Maggette added
17, in the loss.
The Jazz trump the Pacers,
110-88, led by
24 points and
16 assists from
Deron Williams,
Kirilenko had
18,
Al Jefferson added
17 and
Paul Millsap finished the night with
16. With the parting of ways with
Carlos Boozer, this has really become
Deron's team, and he's really taken to the task nicely. He looks primed for an all star appearance, as well as a playoff birth. The Pacers had five players in double figures, led by
Darren Collison, with
16. The Pacers are
9-8 and need to really put a stamp on their season before it is too late.
LA: The Clippers shock the world and grab a W against the Spurs. The Clippers (
4-15) have been, well... The Clippers this season and, the Spurs (
15-3) have been the Spurs. The Clippers looked pretty good, maybe all they needed was a little
Baron Davis, he finished with
7 points but, really controlled the court with
10 assists.
Blake Griffin had a huge night with
31 points and
13 rebounds and
Eric Gordon chipped in
21. The Spurs were led by
George Hill, who had
17 and
Manu Ginobili who had
15.
Tim Duncan was a non-factor and
Tony Parker goes into hibernation, just one day after i ranked him inside the top 10 of the PG rankings, and the Spurs lose.
