Opening night games..

[Fresh8]

Oh, I meant just for the quarter.

And pleasantly surprised with Yi leading NJ with 9 points, 2 boards on 4-5 shooting...

[Doobie]

Beasley also looks a little ratled, missed a few 3 pointers already, and passed up on a third open shot that lead to a turnover.

Cmon we all already know blazers = 5 championships next 7 years + Oden MVP 4 straight years. why even talk about other teams?

(sarcasm if u didnt already realize)

[Doobie]

Knicks up 60-45 wow! That's a real shocker, I'm watching the game they are playing really well.

[Leander]

Urgent! Where can I watch the Knicks game online? The free league pass trial does not work here.

[Doobie]

I'm speechless at how great the Knicks are looking tonight. WOW.

[Doobie]

Knicks can't hold a lead, nothing has changed.

[Fresh8]

At least they were leading.

[Andrew]

And eventually won.

The Suns/Spurs game was pretty fun to watch, fairly close throughout except for a couple of small runs on each side. Pop had a bit of fun with Shaq, getting Finley to Hack-a-Shaq in the first five seconds before giving him a cheery thumbs up which drew a smile from Shaq. He wasn't so jovial about it when they went to the strategy for real though, getting a bit physical with Udoka after one such foul.

That's got to be the best thumbs-up ever

[Andrew]

I'm sure it'll be in a few people's signatures around the web. I don't care too much for the Hack-a-Shaq when it's overused (even if it is a sound strategy as long as it remains legal) but that was pretty cool to see, a bit of fun on opening night.

That's got to be the best thumbs-up ever

And it's from Popovich, who's known to be always serious.
The beard also adds to amazingness of it all.

Shaq did have the last laugh as the Suns won that game.

[Alejandrov011]

I liked what Popovich done. It was like "Hi Shaq, what's up"


Pretty funny
