Opening night games..

Watching the end of the cavs/Celtics... And Yeah a pretty close game to start the season. Also watching the Bulls/Bucks. Lebron missed a key FT and Varajeo just had a stupid foul. Anyone else watching?

Odom had the PASS OF THE YEAR!

He passed it to Vujacic, who was standing by the bench, in his warm-ups.

What I can say of the Celts Cavs game is that Leon Powe has balls

Wow Oden struggled big time, maybe he is just nervous?

Hmmm... Did Trevor Ariza learn how to shoot 3's after he left New York? He had no perimiter shot at all when he played for the Knicks, now he smoothly sinks a 3. His form didn't look half bad either.

Lol.

On a more serious note, bad news for Portland concerning Greg Oden. Some problem with his foot, and on a good note Rudy Fernandez is playing awesome.

Loving the Odom to Vujacic that Doobie mentioned. :)

Reminds me of the time where he inbounds the ball by dribbling in. :lol: And another one.

That just shows the excellence of Odom's court vision. Next Magic Johnson!

Yeah, opening night games are more pressure-packed than some lousy Finals.

They did trade Marion for Shaq, so no surprise on the Rudy trade.

"BUT SHAQ GIVEZ THEM BETTER CHANCE OF WINNING"

I think.

The thing about that odom pass, at least TNT replayed it. If it happened on ESPN they'd goto a close up of a referee or something pathetic. God I hate their coverage.

Guess which team has the most nervous and depressed fans in the NBA right now?

Depressed has been the knicks the last few years, but I'm 100% sure you are talking about the Blazers..

Anyways, Knicks got off to a great start and I almost cried tears of joy when Curry was announced as a reserve.

EDIT: End of half, each team scored just 6 points each...

Yeah your eyes are lying to you. Knicks are up 28-27 at the end of the first. Danilo looks extremely nervous, passing up his first open 3, and missing a 2 point shot, and then missing another open 3.
