If he's really got a mild sprain, he's not going to be able to play.

He might think he's fine cuz he still had adrenaline going through his body and he thought it wasn't that bad. His foot probably feels much worse today.

Either you are a Clippers hater or you think way to many teams are tanking.

I was a Clipper season ticket holder with a buddy of mine last year.

Johnny Flynn, JJ Hickson, Hasheem Thabeet, Jamal Crawford, Luke Babit were on the floor together...

And how exactly did you become a Nets fan?

8:30 p.m.: Grizzlies vs. Mavericks

A nice little battle between the current No. 5 and No. 6 seeds in the West. The Mavs’ offense is in shambles, and they get to test it tonight against one of the league’s most ferocious defensive teams. A Grizzlies win would give them a huge three-game edge on Dallas in the loss column and go a long way to locking up the No. 5 seed and making a run at No. 4 or No. 3. It would also drop Dallas to 30-25 and in a potential loss-column tie with No. 8 Houston.

After tonight, the Mavericks have seven of their final 11 games on the road, and it is not an easy slate. They’re still fairly safe, since they have already clinched tie-breakers over Utah, Houston, Phoenix and Denver, but their hold on a playoff spot is not as strong as it looks. Either way, this team has to right itself almost immediately if it wants to make any noise in the playoffs.

Uhhh...so the Mavs aren't so safe right now.

The Thunder shouldn't even be in the game. What are the Heat doing?

Sooo Durant... with a turnovers and a terrible three point shot with 15 seconds left. MVP!

Still shaking my head over the fact that Durant is some how the MVP favorite over Lebron.

LBJ didn't exactly tear it up himself in the 4th. He should've taken over and he didn't.

He had three more points than Lebron in the 4th quarter.

Lebron finished: 34 pts, 7 rebs, 10 asts, 4 blk, 1 stl, 2 to

Durant: 30 pts, 4 rebs, 3 asts, 2 blks, 9 to

Not even close...

I'm not saying LBJ didn't play better than Durant, but he had the opportunity to put a lock on the MVP by turning it on the 4th quarter and he didn't.

IMO, it's the popular thing to try and argue Durant's case to make it seem like him and LeBron are comparable as players...but they're not.

LeBron scores almost as well as Durant, and he's not even a natural scorer. He's a better rebounder, a better passer, and a better defender. He just does pretty much everything better than Durant, outside of shooting, which he's no slouch at.

I have Durant ranked #5 overall:

1. LeBron
2. Wade
3. Howard
4. Paul
5. Durant

Is anyone else REALLY enjoying the SVG/Dwight fiasco, or is it just me?

I will say that I'm loving Stefan Bondy's comments lately. I know some of you don't like the guy (for some reason), but I love that hes grilling Dwight and actually defends the Nets when he has to.

This is only the beginning. Dwight will change his mind 8 more times until deciding the fate of Van Gundy

Dwight Howard didn't want to be the bad guy. Now he's Scarface.

This could all have been resolved if SVG offered Dwight some of his candy

And despite all this, the Nets would trade for Dwight Howard in a Brooklyn minute.

But in New York deals aren't forged over Skittles and Jawbreakers. Dwight belongs in Disneyland.
