Big night last night in the NBA.
First of all, the Raps-Pistons game was a good one, Jose Calderon kept the Raps in the game down the stretch but the Pistons were just too dominant for the Raps. I also have to mention……..I miss Chuck Swirsky. When the Raps are making runs, the Chuck Swirsky calls are what make Raps games that much more exciting. Matt Devlin doesn’t cut it, we need more “C – B – 4!!!” or “SICK WICKED AND NASTY!” calls. Chuck Swirsky was as much part of the Raptors as Chris Bosh and I miss the Swirsk and his calls.
Last night had a few 40+ point scorers and…No, one of them wasn’t Melo scoring 44 for Obama. He ended up with 28 and an L against the Warriors. And oh yeah, Melo got a haircut!
Amare “STAT” Stoudemire had a sick line last night: 49 points, 11 boards, 6 assists, 5 steals and 2 blocks!
Lebron ….also sick: 41 points, 9 boards, 6 assists and 4 steals
And the high scorer of the night:
Balance Toi……Tony Parker!
55 points, 10 assists and 7 dimes in the double OT win. Career high for TP.
As the resident Spurs fan….I was watching the box score and couldn’t believe TP’s stats but what suprised me more was that the 0-3 Spurs (worst start since ’74) needed double OT to squeak a win over the Minnesota Timberwolves?! I never usually worry about the Spurs during the regular season but when I see Roger Mason as the third highest scorer, I’m starting to worry. Manu, we need you back!
