Carmelo Anthony could be the best offensive player in the league. 37 points against a good defensive team today (Celtics) on 10-17 shooting and 13-15 from the line.

The Celtics’ Brandon Bass could be the best off-season acquisition.

The Mavs don’t look like the NBA Champs.

Goodbye, Nate Robinson.

The Oklahoma City Thunder look very good.

Carlos Boozer looks sick.

Tyson Chandler blocked 6 shots for the Knicks, but was bested by the Clippers DeAndre Jordan who swatted 8 shots.

Good for you, Chauncey Billups.

Derrick Rose can shoot threes? Good luck defending him NOW, rest of the NBA…

Kobe Bryant looks a step slower and had 8 turnovers in their loss to the Bulls today. But still good for 28 points, 7 boards & 6 assists.

The Lakers defended quite well today, showing more urgency on the defensive end than we’ve seen in years. A lot more double-teams and guys getting out in the passing lanes… great to see the influence of the defensive-minded Coach Mike Brown already. We still don’t get how the Lakers blow that game up 87-81 with under a minute left… to lose 88-87. Probably that Derrick Rose guy, dropping a jum,p hook over Gasol with 4.8 left.
