2014-15 NBA Season

I'm surprised in an ESPN game how much more slobber Lillard gets than Aldridge. Lillard is a special guy. But, depending on what you consider Brow (does he have a position? 4.5?), LA is the best power forward in the league One of four guys averaging a double-double and unguardable.

[MrSaigon]

Clippers can really play D when they decide to play. Lillard is all sorts of out of sorts.

Weirdest, ugliest effing game we really had no business being in. Lillard was 1/13 with 18 (wtf?) rebounds. I'll take that win and run away, though. Happily. Batum took over in OT.

Shot clock buzzes, Jordan thinks it's the game clock and doesn't very easily win the game from zero feet:

Wes was about to get PAID. Really feel for him. He's my favorite Blazer right now and has never stopped working like an undrafted rookie.

Bulls game last night was the most exciting game of the season to watch. jim, hope you had good seats.

[jim]

Decent seats, nothing like you had earlier this year. First row of the 300's basically even with the basket that here E'Twaun sent us home happy. The downside of being a fan of a team that draws like the Bulls do is it just prices me out of the good seats. 100 level baseline is pretty hard to find for < 200 a seat. I'm always treating my son when we go, so double that. Opening tip from our seats last night:

[SHOW]

That the best game I've ever seen in person, and probably the second most exciting game I've seen (The game a couple of years ago where they snapped the Heat's 20 some game winning streak was #1 even though it wasn't quite as good of a game).

E'Twaun Freaking Moore? Crazy.

Super fun game to watch, even on television. Dunleavy looked like a player last night!

Nothing wrong with those seats at all, jim.

[jim]

That's where I sit. When I shared ST's I was basically in the same spot just at the other basket. First few rows of the upper level on the corners are kind of the value seats for basketball fans. Someday maybe I'll spring for 100 level mid court seats, but probably not unless someone gives them to me.

That's what I thought when I saw your picture - about where your season tix were. I've got a buddy who has just about the same tickets.

I absolutely love going to the Bulls games. The athleticism on the court is ridiculous, when you see Russell Westbrook do what he does in person it's just a different experience than watching it on TV. And as you mentioned once lipp - there isn't a second that isn't filled with entertainment. You walk in and there are bands playing in the concourse, pregame shows on the court, warmups, lineup introduction, t-shirts fired up in the stands, Benny the Bull doing his thing (that guy is amazing) etc...

The thing that sucks is just getting to UC. We parked down at the Bill Goat (NOT good hamburgers BTW) and walking 3-4 blocks or whatever was just brutal last night. 80% of the time I've been there I've frozen my ass off getting to the game. Add to that Chicago rush hour traffic and yippee!
