    Rather watch this Celtics vs Sixers game than Monday Night Football or Baseball playoffs!

    Paul Pierce has already been in one fight (with Noah).

    Pierce learned that move from KG...backup and act like you didn't swing, get the other teams best defender ejected...first time I've seen Pierce pull that one

    Randle is a bully but man does he look small on an NBA court -- looks like Milsap out there.

    See Olynick crouched in defensive position? John Wooden made his centers do that. Kim Hughes doesn't try to make Meyers Leonard fluid, so Leonard is always a vertical stiff, afraid to take one step in any direction. Maybe his mother told him to stand up straight.

    How did former Blazers do Saturday?

    For the Magpies, Babbitt rained 3s, 5 for 10. The Withey-Asik tandem had 10 rebounds in 25 minutes. But for the Heat, Chris Johnson and Josh McRoberts combined for 1 rebound.

    Looks good. He'll be a good NBA player and you can tell he's ready for the league as he traveled twice and didn't have it called.

    Watching this Laker v Nugget game. The Mamba is back FAMS! Julius Randal looks very aggressive out there. Reminds me a bit of Paul Milsap.

    He does look NBA ready. However, those were the most annoying broadcasters I have ever heard. I almost shut it off at least 3 times. NiKOLA..........argh..... Shut the fuck up.

    Basically Kobe is now a 6-inches-shorter Dirk Nowitzki. Fadeways in the post a-plenty.
