Let’s take a tour around the league shall we…

Raptors 113 at Suns 133:  There’s a reason that Shaq hasn’t scored 40+ points in over 4 years – - because he’s fat and slow.  Leave it to Toronto to make him look like a franchise player again.

Cavs 97 at Spurs 86:  No Tim Duncan + no Manu Ginobili = no chance in hell of beating LeBron and the Cavs after the got manhandled last night in Houston.

Lakers 79 at Nuggets 90:  7 blocks – man, I love Chris Andersen.  He’s definitely a high-flyer…in more ways than one.

Thunder 108 at Mavericks 110:  Kevin Durant got hurt early in this one.  It’s a shame because it would have been intriguing to watch Kevin Durant and Dirk Nowitzki go toe to toe – particularly because neither guy seems to use their arms for anything other than shooting the ball.

Trailblazers 102 at Timberwolves 82:  Some games are just fun to watch.  I’m almost certain this was not one of them.

Bucks 94 at Hornets 95:  The Hornets won this one on a Tyson Chandler tip-in with 3 seconds left in the game.  Nevertheless, I’ve been impressed with Charlie Villanueva’s play lately.  He’s always had the skills, or maybe his opponents are just moving out of his way just in case he decides to take them to his leader.

Pistons 93 at Magic 85:  Whew!  The Pistons might make the playoffs after all…

Bulls 90 at Wizards 113:  Barack Obama was at the game.  The Bulls were not.  Also, being that he plays in the nation’s capital, I’m assuming that Gilbert Arenas will not refer to himself as “The Black President” anymore.  But you never can tell with that guy…

76ers 108 at Knicks 103:   Philly has a good, young team here.  Good thing the management was smart enough to get rid of A.I.  No way these young players would develop with the ball glued to his hands.

Pacers 99 at Celtics 104:  Boston should have won this game and they did.  Nothing much else to say about this.  Oh yeah, Starbury played and the Celts didn’t self-destruct.  I guess that’s news.  The Knicks should have stopped being pricks and let this guy go a long time ago.  I’m glad that saga is over.

Heat 83 at Hawks 91:  Joe Johnson is the best player on the Hawks, but he is never the deciding factor as to whether they win or not.  Almost all of their other players are so inconsistent it’s not even funny.

Clippers 86 at Kings 98:  I’d like to see Kevin Martin play for a real team.  I’m sure that Sacramento wouldn’t.

Bobcats 112 at Warriors 109:  I’m convinced that any team would set a season-high in scoring against Golden State…including college and high school teams.
