    Joakim Noah just smiled and shook his head in disbelief.
    “Kevin Garnett tried to bite me. That’s crazy man. It’s unbelievable,” Noah said. “I don’t even know what to say.”
    But then Noah said more about the incident, which rapidly circulated via social media following the Bulls’ victory over the Nets.
    “I’m happy he didn’t connect,” Noah said. “If somebody tries to bite you, I think it’s a little bit more than trying to get in your head. It’s pretty amazing.”

    At 36 years, 99 days old, Kobe became the oldest to have at least 30p/10a/10r in a game. Previously, it was Larry Bird (35 years, 99 days).

    Stat that surprised me: The dunkiest team in the NBA right now is ... Dallas? Mavs had 110 dunks in November. Bucks second with a mere 91

    One of my favorite Stotts quotes was in Nov last season after a game when interviewed and he said, "It's great to be winning in November but the goal is to be better in May than November"
    He then promptly coached a masterful regular season end game when Aldridge returned and got us over the first hurdle in the playoffs. One game at a time. The only power rankings that even count are the playoff seedings.

    The @trailblazers have the NBA's fourth-best offense and fifth-best defense. They're the only team to be ranked top five in both categories.

    In other words, they will do anything to get rid of Stephenson.
