Quality Tipoff: I Was Up Before Sparty Edition

What an upset! Sparty’s source said that he would have a post up before Major League Jerk. It didn’t happen. There goes that credibility! Waking up this early to give you, dear reader, an NBA update really takes a toll on someone. So I’m afraid that I’m going to have to take a nap right now and I won’t answer your queries until later. TTFN.

Celtics 122, Pacers 117 (OT): Indiana probably played a hard-fought game according to me just looking at the final score. It looks like they fell apart in the overtime period, though. Kevin Garnett had 17 points, 20 rebounds and 32 chest thumps. A douchey triple double, if you will. Damn, he’s so annoying. How can anyone like him? Seriously, how?

Blazers 98, Raptors 97: Down 2 points, Steve Blake hit a three pointer with 8 seconds left and Portland held on to defeat Toronto. Greg Oden had a double double and former Longhorn LaMarcus Aldridge had 20 points for the winners. Although the Raptors are 3 games under .500, they are still only a half-game out of a playoff spot in the dogshit, top-heavy Leastern Conference.

Pistons 92, Knicks 104: So much for the Knicks tanking the season. Or are they? Maybe Detroit is just that bad. Maybe this guy was onto something. Either way, both teams suck. Hey, I just noticed New York only played 7 players an none of those played less than 20 minutes. Awesome.

Bucks 92, Lakers 105 : Kobe, the guy who lead our nation back to gold, had 20 points, 8 assists and 5 rebounds as the Lake Show took care of business against the decent Milwaukee Bucks. TBL fave Joe Alexander had 15 points in the loss.
