Millsap did a fantastic job for giving us the spark in Q4. Boozer stats "flirted" with Triple-Double. They can co-exist.
Oh, by the way, D Will was still that awesome.
Others,
- CP3 needs to score 31 points for a win over Kings. It doesn't bode well for Hornets.
- Quote of the day - "I'll wait for you guys to decide when I'm over the hill" - Steve Nash, after his 18-pt, 20-ast performance.

Jazz Swept Hornets, Enough Said.
Jazz Game,
- As a Jazz fans, we feel sweet about the Hornets sweep.
- I think the statement - "CP3 is much better than D Will", can no longer stand upright. The media, could we start to say they have the same caliber from now on?
Others,
- Will Bynum, 26 pts of the Team's 36 in the fourth quarter? It is a heart-breaker to Bobcats fans.

Jazz Dedicated the Win to Larry H. Miller
Jazz Game,
- Okur, so under-rated in the NBA envrionment. I am not saying he is the Top 20 or even Top 30 in the league, but he has been under-estimated for all these years, especially to NBA fans who seldom watch Jazz games.
- Brewer's jump shots are unusually accurate in today game.
- I have to admit that CP3 could perform even better if he is in a better team. In Hornets, he needs to bear huge responsibilities in scoring as a PG. Not healthy to his development.
- Rasual Butler's perimeter shooting is quite deadly in the recent two games. In contrast, Peja Stojakovic has lost his touches. Look at his stats in the last five games and you will know why I have this comment - link.

Jazz had a Good Start after All-Star Break
Jazz got an easy win, even without Okur.
Others,
- Tyson Chandler <=> Joe Smith, Chris Wilcox. We won't see all the alley-oops from CP3 to Chandler anymore.
- T Mac will miss the rest of the season. With all due respect, that's at worst a neutral news. Recently we can all see Rockets is actually playing better without him.
- A monster game by Dwight Howard - 45 pts, 19 rebs, 8 blks, in a OT win.

Shaq? MVP?
All-Star Game,
- Nate Robinson did a good job in the Dunk Contest. I guess Dwight Howard picked the wrong dunk for the last attempt, and also he executed it in a below-par standard.
- Shaq? MVP? He is very entertaining throughout the game, but I don't think he should be the co-MVP. And the bigger reason I feel so is that I think CP3 was doing a better job, though I don't like him that much (for obvious reason).

Hornets showed they have ZERO depth in Bench
Others,
- Hornets, CP3 and David West did not play in today game. Result? Loss, 80-85. Looks alright? Looks deeper...Field Goals: 26/88 = 29.5%; Rebs: 38 vs 64. We seldom saw such a big gap in rebounds. If their FTs (21/22) were not that good, Grizzilies would have a landslide win.
- Big Al, out for season. Sorry for Timberwolves, and they can concentrate to play hard, or to lose more games for a better lottery.

A Letter to Bill Simmons
Dear Bill,
Hope this finds you well. By way of introduction, I am yet another NBA fans from the other part of the world - Asia.
Am scratching my heads after reading your recent article (26/11/2008) in ESPN, regarding Point 9. And I quote directly below.
"9. Is there a dumber argument in sports than "Chris Paul or Deron Williams"?
I argued before the season, passionately, that Paul was in a different league and earned myself a few death threats from the Salt Lake City area. (You stay classy, Utah.) Check out their 2009 stats through four weeks:
Paul: 20.5 PPG, 12.2 APG, 2.9 steals, 52.3% FG, 85.6% FT.
Williams: 7.5 PPG, 8.0 APG, 0.0 steals, 26.7% FG, 66.7% FT.
I mean, that's a landslide! Come on! Can we all agree to stop arguing about this?"
I won't argue with your conclusion - "Paul was in a different league". Everyone could have their opinion and I give full respect to that.
And you try to use the most objective statistics to re-inforce your point, which is alright too.
But, I hope you are aware that the numbers of D Will is from the two games he played this season, with a perhaps-80% ankle? Would recommend you to re-visit the numbers at the end of the regular season, so that we could have a more statistically reliable data to compare.
Last but not least, we are on the same page, let's stop this "CP3 vs D Will" discussion, and wait for the season-end stats + winning records to speak for itself.
Have a nice Thanksgiving holiday.
Warm regards,
Another Jazz Fans in Asia
