Sterling Clippers outweigh Golden State

The Clippers and Warriorss meeting last night was a meeting of 2 bad teams. Somehow I'm already a fan of Darius Miles, maybe that has to do with his ties to Air.

Well the Clippers won last night 94-76. Our man stroked in 13, and D-Miles also went mile high for 4 blocks. Their point guard Jeff McInins had a triple double, 21 points, 11 dishes, and 12 boards.

Capital Punishment

Phil Jackson punished Isiah Rider in the Nations's Capital, just like everywhere else, and the Lakers punished the Wizards.
In the lakers 100-89 win, every single member of the lakers played, - all 12. Everyone played more minutes than Isiah. Isiah played 5 minutes and didn't record a productive stat. Phil Jackson claims he "didn't let the game come to him" and was supposed to play D, not O.

"Sir Cumference" too wide to hide

That was probably the best nickname one of the viewers of Inside the NBA suggested for Charles Barkley when he was supposedly loosing weight.

It seems like the anonymous source "close to Jordan" that told Sports Illustrated's Rick Rilley that Jordan is coming back to hoop it up was The Round Mound of Rebound. Sir Charles trying to rebound to the league if he's able to shed some pounds wants to play for Jordan in D.C.

Kings' rule: No brotherly love

The Sixers' 2001 model Philly Navigator's driver (Allen Iverson) and course guide (Larry Brown) have been player and coach napped by injuries, and medical problems. The ransom is that the Sixers give up the league's best record.

They might end up giving much more.

Now the passengers (the rest of team) are left trying to find someone who can handle the wheel as well as A.I, before the rest of the other race cars catch up.

With every team being able to see the Sixers' distress signals from behind they're bound to get some kind of momentum to catch up to them.

During the Sixers and Kings game, Chris Webber looked good, and The Answer although scored 28 did have a noticeable lazyness in his game, Jason Williams noticed and ran him through picks.

Now there's no timetable on when he will be back. And with Larry Brown also out for a while...

Pat Croce wants to know: D Stern can we count Deke's rebounds and blocks as points?
