LOS ANGELES — I was talking to Michael Lev, the Register’s new online guru, about how much more “newsy” stuff we’re putting in here … and how I also seem to have lurched into a rut of less fun in here as a result of the new structure. Well, fun will still rule…

A great game. Damien Wilkins is playing out of his mind. 39 points, seven rebounds, and pretty much willing the Sonics. Joe Johnson has been impressive for Atlanta with 36 points, five rebounds and five assists.

Your in-game & post-game thoughts here. Here is Yahoo’s preview of the game, as the Knicks go without Randolph again tonight, but that’s not enough of an excuse to lose this game, as the Kings are baaaaaaad.

Led by Joe Johnson, the Hawks went on a 25-12 run to reclaim the lead, 72-71. Johnson had 13 points during that time. However, Seattle managed to grab the lead back and is ahead 84-82 after three quarters. The Sonics are in a position to win the game on the road, which is what you want.

Even with the a day off Seattle is playing well here against Atlanta. An unlikely lineup of Earl Watson, Damien Wilkins, Mickael Gelabale, Nick Collison and Johan Petro helped Seattle go on a 15-0 run to take control of this one, with Seattle leading 58-45 at the half. Chris Wilcox and Kevin…

A. Sherrod Blakely has an update on Chauncey Billups and Antonio McDyess: I just got word that both had an MRI performed today, and the results were negative. While this doesn’t necessarily mean they’re in the clear, it does open up the possibility that both might play tomorrow. Team…

No big surprise, but the Pistons figure to be shorthanded again tonight. From Chris McCosky’s Detroit News blog: Chauncey Billups looked more game-ready at shootaround today than Antonio McDyess did, but both said they want to wait until game time to decide whether they will dress for the…

What do perms, snap bracelets, and the new NBA warm-ups have in common? The King and Melo look good in classic bboy gear, but isn't it a little boring? They're trends -- thank goodness -- that came or will come to an end. The violent threat to suburban youth in schools before guns My…

Today we had some time off, so John Edwards (My current teammate who has played for the Hawks and the Pacers) and I went over to see some sites here in Istanbul, Turkey. The coolest one to me was the Hagia Sophia Mosque. For one thousand years, it was actually the largest Christian…

We finally won our first game and it happened to come in front of our home fans in Minnesota. We had a lot of guys step up in the win. Rashad McCants had 30 points, Al Jefferson had his normal dominant performance and Antoine Walker had a huge game in crunch time to put us over the…

It's late, few incites. I'm looking forward to the game flow in the morning, but after tying the game in the 4th, Skiles made a major misstep in trying to go extra-small (Duh/Hinrich/Gordon/Noc/Deng?), getting destroyed by Marion and Diaw. Even at their best it's tough to beat the Suns in…
