They got to do something about whining to the refs. It marred the great GS/LAC game last night. Primarily from Doc and his boys, but really, both teams.

What Steph Curry has done so far this year is nothing short of incredible. He's on pace to double the record for three pointers in a season. Which he set. Last year. He's scored the most points through 5 games in the modern era and he's playing less than 35 minutes a game. He's shooting over 50% FROM 3. It's unbelievable. I know it's 5 games but it's so god damn effortless looking that it might be sustainable.

It's so fun to watch Warriors home games. The crowd goes bonkers every play. I've been rooting for them from the other side of the league for a few years now; they really helped me enjoy basketball last year, when I was truly upset by the Bulls incredibly unappealing brand of basketball. That game last night was fantastic. Ezeli's sick block on Griffin was my favorite moment, other than the obligatory How Does Curry Keep Making Those Shots moments.

That Mavericks roster is bad.
So here sit the Hornets, 2-3. They have beaten Chicago and Dallas and have lost to Atlanta twice and Miami.
I have no idea if they are any good or not.

Rose was motivated because of his mostly hypothetical rivalry with Westbrook last night, so he played well. It's pretty hard to perceive his games where he barely penetrates the three point line as anything other than a lack of effort or caring. When he feels slighted he plays hard. When he's complacent, he doesn't.

Jordan in Dallas tonight. Going to be some epic booing. This is a game where you wish basketball had soccer chants. Who is the Mav's 12th man? I want to see him ejected for a hard foul.

That's tomorrow, Wednesday.

I've honestly been looking forward to this game for awhile. I enjoy disliking the Clippers. It's easy to be entertained by Jordan and his "Did I do that?" face. Throw in fifteen or so shots of Cuban glaring across the court? It's gonna be great.

Probably not the actual game, though. The poor Mavs just aren't a fun team to watch.

I still hate Pao Gasol. He is really diminishing my enjoyment of watching the Bulls.
