Yeah, it's a shame that it's not. It takes skill to rack up Trillions.

One thing I admire about Kobe is that he does not believe in flopping. I hate flopping. Paul Pierce is the worse. He will lay on the ground waiting for the ambulance then miraculacly rise up in time to shoot free throws and, oh by the way, stay in the game.

When Kobe dislocated his shooting hand finger last night, my finger hurt. When he finally got to the sideline his trainer relocated it (ouch) and he went back into the game. The rest of the game you could tell he was in a lot of pain.

(Not that this was a flopping situation, but it clearly was an example of true grit. I do not believe I have ever seen him actually flop).

Kobe drops a triple double, but is outshined by... Andrew Bynum's 42 points and 15 points.

But the most amazing line of the night? None other than DeAndre Jordan. Against Bynum and one of the best teams in the league, he went off for 23 points, 12 boards, and 4 blocks. I wish I could have seen this game.

DeAndre is not my favourite player at all... but is athletism against a horrible defender like bynum could be useful...
obviously bynum scored 42 on him... ;P

Bynum isn't a horrible defender at all. In fact, he's quite good. So, Jordan must have been doing something right. That's why I was so shocked.

mmm, in the p n' r situations he is so bad. i didn't think about that since 3/4 months ago when a guy that comments the nba in italy said that he was so overrated on his D. So i saw 5/6 matches and he was right!
gotta see in a lot of situations him, and you'll understand

Fair enough, thanks. I'll start watching for that.

I do know that he is a great rebounder and shot blocker. I guess that is what I was going by.

Wow, only a few hours after signing Mebury, he played in his first game:

http://sports.espn.go.com/nba/recap?gameId=290227002


He had eight points, two assists, and three turnovers in 13 minutes off the bench.

Holy crap!!! Shaq is back baby!!!

Well, at least for one night. He dropped 45 (!) points and 11 boards on 20 of 25 shooting from the field!!! This blows my mind. I can't wait to see highlights.

Also, in the same game, Robin Lopez had a 2 minute Voskuhl, Patrick O'Bryant had a 3 minute Voskuhl, Marcus Banks had a 5 minute near-Voskuhl, and Jake Voskuhl had an EIGHT minute Voskuhl! HAHAHA!

Epic game in Detroit tonight.

First off, the Detroit bench had 7 points in 50 combined minutes of game time. All the points were by one player. They had 4 guys that nearly notched Trillions.


- Amir Johnson had a 2 minute Trillion.

- Kwame Brown was 1 foul away from a 7 minute trillion. Instead, he had a 7 minute Voskuhl.

- Walter Herrmann had a 12 minute Voskuhl!

- Jason Maxiel had a SIXTEEN freakin minute Voskuhl!!!
