The percentage on players hitting those shots, even superstars, is not nearly as high as most people believe. You should check out Chauncy "Big Shot" Billups some time. His percentage was awful. People remember the makes, they forget the misses.

Convenient. But when it was LeBron it was a huge deal?

Everything with Lebron is a big deal in the media.

Cleveland now 2 1/2 games out of the last playoff spot. Deng makes them better on both sides of the ball. Laughable how bad the East is. As big of a dichotemy as I've ever seen, between East and West.

Surprisingly great game right now between Knicks and Heat. As I type Jesus Shuttlesworth goes for a 4 point play.

NYC is back. Nets and Knicks 8-1 combined in 2014 with wins over Oklahoma City, Golden State, San Antonio and Miami.

Looks like that Christmas Day national tv ass-kicking that both teams suffered marked the bottom. Nowhere to go but up now. I think it's good for the NBA brand to have decent teams in NYC.

Any chance Brooklyn can beat the Heat tonight?

Miami does not lose 2 in a row that often, but BK is playing better and can keep it close.
The Knicks are 4-1 in there last 5 vs Miami.

I agree with RHT. I'd feel better if the Heat had won last night. But a close loss is cool with me if we can win in Toronto tomorrow. 5-1 in 2014 going into the London trip would've sounded ludicrous after the NYE loss to San Antonio.

Holy ****. Great great 1st quarter.
Joe Johnson has 22
Lebron has 16

Great game... Getting really physical. Birdman almost dropped the big elbow on KG.

RockHardTen1985 · #12 01-10-2014, 10:27 PM

Win or lose if BK plays like this every night they will be the 3 seed come playoff time.

Shaun Livingston going beast mode. Still a shame all the injuries he has had.

You need these to hit those kind of shots
