INDIANAPOLIS – The Lakers put aside their disappointment at seeing good friends Brian Cook and Maurice Evans shipped out in trade and pounded the Indiana Pacers, 134-114, on Tuesday night. Kobe Bryant led a fierce attack on offense with 32 points in 31 minutes, but eight players scored in double…

I really like the Nuggets roster and think they'd be the top team in the East. In fact they could be a top team in the West, if things go right. They gave the Spurs a heck of a scare in last season's playoffs, and with a returning Kenyon Martin (who's overpaid but at worst is another decent…

The Lakers haven’t announced it yet, but they’ve traded Brian Cook and Maurice Evans to Orlando for UCLA product Trevor Ariza, an athletic small forward who is just 22. Ariza is 6-foot-8, 210 pounds, and he’s an exciting player who also lets the Lakers get out from under their…

A. Sherrod Blakely has good news about Antonio McDyess on MLive: McDyess feels better: As the Pistons started clearing out the visiting locker room at Sacramento’s Arco Arena late Sunday night, Antonio McDyess emerged from the trainer’s room. He was bummed out about missing a third…

Well we all knew it was just a matter a time before this happened [Inside Bay Area]: Rookie center Kosta Perovic was sent down to the Bakersfield Jam, the Warriors' affiliate in the NBA Development League. The move had been talked about for weeks as the 22-year-old, inactive for five of the…

Your in-game & post-game thoughts here. A little early for a game thread, but I figured we could use the area to discuss the news that Stephon Marbury is back in the starting lineup tonight. I’ll be at the game tonight, so I’ll tell y’all how the crowd receives him.

Some kind of game last night. If you just read the headlines this morning you'll see that Chris Paul is still injured, Tyson Chandler got hurt and the Hornets lost to the Magic. Then you might go stick your head in the oven.But it ain't so bad. CP might miss one more game, Tyson might miss…

I don't know about you, but I'm still feeling the after effects of the Warriors not winning the Kevin Garnett sweepstakes and I don't see this topic dying easily for Warriors Nation- especially when The Boston Globe puts out pieces titled Warriors: Not Enough: Bid to land Garnett…

So we bid a fond farewell to Lasme, and we say a...um multilingual hello to DJ Mbenga. (Evidently he speaks French and Portuguese.) While it can be argued that it's never a bad thing to add a 7-footer on our squad, it remains to be seen how Nellie is going to implement DJ into our line-up. It's…

I honestly can't understand for the life of me how the Warriors got this W this morning, but hey it's a W and after an 0-6 start I'll take it! With today's win in Toronto the Warriors picked up their first win away from Oakland and began their first win streak of the season. They're also…

With the Dubs on a 2 game win streak and ending their doughnut start I'm happy to re-introduce The W Column and resume Counting W's with you. This week is fairly brutal for the Dubs with a pair of back-to-backs on the East Coast. If they can get a split I think Nellie and the crew…

Some stray thoughts after Monday's Bobcats victory over Portland: Unlike college football, every victory in the NBA counts the same, regardless of who you play. That's the good news about the Bobcats' 6-4 record, the best start in franchise history....

2-3 -- How Seattle finished on the road trip, which should be somewhat disappointing for P.J. Carlesimo and the players because they lost by double-digits in the last two games. 53.3 -- That’s what Memphis shot from the 3-point line, going 8-of-15 from beyond the arc as Seattle again…

Now that the Bulls are off to this ass start, we get the second guessing of the whole Paxiles regime. Which is certainly fair, except when Jamal Crawford is considered a borderline all-star, and Tyrus Thomas is placed in the category of 'scrappy'. Get ready for a barrage if J.R. Smith hits a jump…

The Lakers have their first serious injury of the season with starting center Kwame Brown diagnosed Monday with a sprained medial collateral ligament in his left knee. Lamar Odom suffered a similar injury early last season and missed a month and a half — 21 games — although the Lakers…
