- Rasheeeeeeeeeeeed to Celtics! wow! I think it is a bigger news than VC to Magic.
I don't know those good and (relatively) elder players just love the Celtics franchise, KG(?) or the high possibility of getting a Ring in the less competitive Eastern Conference, they just join them one by one. From PJ Brown, Sam Cassell, Stephon Marbury (I don't want to show any disrespect by not listing him) to Rasheed Wallace.
Any players fit the above profile would like to join Jazz? : ) Well, to be fair, we once had Derek Fisher.
- The rumour of AK trade with T-Mac, I guess it is probably, rumour. I don't see why Rockets need AK when they have got Ariza. Their styles are alike and (probably) Ariza has better 3-pt shooting...

Pleasant Surprises for Rockets, Bucks
Others,
- Nice win by Raptors, but Chris Bosh just had a lackluster performance. On the other hand, Marion seems to be enjoying his time in Toronto (at least for now). Playing 44 mins with 16 pts, 15 rebs, 5 asts, and 1 stl. Can't complain, right?
- I said earlier in this blog that missing T Mac at worst a neutral news for Rockets. I guess we can be almost sure that Rockets plays better ball without an half-injured T Mac. He is great when he is healthy, no doubts about that. Just not when he is hobbling.
- By the way, Yao is playing more minutes that usual in recent two games - link. Let's keep watching. It could be a short-term push for results, but may not be ideal for the play-off.
- Without Redd made Charlie Villanueva, and Ramon Sessions have more minutes. Villanueva proved that he could be a scoring machine in earlier seasons if he played enough time, but Sessions is definitely a surprise for the Bucks. They recently really beat some good teams, including Nuggets today. (A Big Thank You)
- "Lamar has been asked more than anybody to make sacrifices that guys of his caliber normally aren't asked to make," Fisher said, referring to Odom coming off the bench for 45 of the team's first 46 games. "Now that he's back in the starting lineup, he's letting the game come to him and his talent speaks for itself." - I am nodding my head, can't agree more. I said in pre-season that Odom and AK have a lot of similarities in their games. They are both very talented and versatile player.

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.

Roy sinked Rockets by a Buzzer Beater
Please look at the last shot of Roy in this NBA Video Link.
Some notes / thoughts,
- Charles Barkely commented in NBA Inside that Yao should not be the guy who tried to stand in the sideline and influence the pass.
- Watch the video carefully, what I saw is T Mac's tried to point / get his teammate to guard Roy who runs out to 3pt line. After 0.5 second, nothing happens, T Mac starts to follow. Too late.
- The most important thing that kills Rockets, of course is the lucky shot.
And...last but not least...Go JAZZ! Take Thunders tomorrow for Coach Sloan's 1000th Win wtih Jazz.
