It's about time.
Line Of The Night :
Darius Miles -- 32 points, 11 boards, 5 assists, 5 steals, 3 blocks
The D-Miles we have all been waiting on? Has he been listening to
Young Jeezy's "Get Yo Mind Right" all off-season? Only time will
tell, but this is a nasty, nasty start.
Oscar Robertson Of The Night :
Chris Duhon -- 18 points, 12 assists, 10 boards, 2 steal
So we guess that Duhon bidding war over the summer wasn't a joke
after all?
Near Ice Cube Of The Night :
Delonte West -- 14 points, 9 boards, 9 assists, 4 blocks, 3 steals
Wow. Who knew? West apparently did not like all that pre-season
Orien Greene talk, as he goes AK47 on us, on opening night.
T.J. Ford -- 16 points, 14 assists, 9 boards
The kid is back! This output came on opening night, and he
followed it up on Wednesday with a dazzling 21-point performance.
What makes it that much sweeter is that the Bucks are now 2-0, after
knocking off two supposed Eastern Conference contenders: Dirty
Jerse and Illadelph.
Jason Kidd -- 12 points, 9 assists, 8 boards, 1 steal
Another year, same ol' situation for Kidd. His squad got
steam-rolled by the Milwaukee juggernaut, though.
Rookie Of The Night :
Andrew Bogut -- 17 boards, 10 points, 4 assists, 1 steal
Your boy is looking niiiii-ice so far. Better than we expected, at
least. Deron Williams had a great game off the bench for Utah, as
well.
Near Beast Of The Night :
Bonzi Wells -- 22 points, 18 boards, 2 steals, 1 assist, 1 block
Bonzi with the boards? Sacramento still lost though, and it is
getting ugly, early.
Hair Issues Of The Night :
San Antonio made an impressive, business-like debut Tuesday night,
and everybody was yappin' about Brent Barry kissing David Stern
during the ring ceremony. However, the L.O.N. offices were buzzing
about several hair issues, both with Spurs players, and later, with
one of the announcers of the second game of the double header.
What happened to the locks, Manu? What's with the studious, wack
businessman look? There is a dress code in place sure, but nobody
said nothing about hair, man! The neatly combed 'do just does not
fit your personality, player. And Duncan... where do we begin? At
least comb it out, or something... your 'fro looked puffy and
unkempt. The most shocking observation came a little later though.
DOUG COLLINS WITH THE BLEACHED BLONDE! BIZARRO WORLD.
Vinnie Johnson Of The Night :
Richie Frahm -- 18 points, 4 boards, 1 assist
Minnesota had the internet going nuts this summer, when they signed
former Trailblazer, Richie Frahm. Last night he had the privilege
of knocking off his former team, with an assassin-like 5-6
performance from the Land of Three. 18 points in 15 minutes!
Eat Your Breakfast Of The Night :
Andre Miller, meet Smush Parker. Smush let Dre know all the
details last night -- 6'4"... straight outta NY... Fordham alum...
-- with a nasty, fast break tomahawk right in Miller's grill. Get
familiar.
Mad Skillz (From Where???) Of The Night :
James Singleton -- 14 points, 10 boards, 1 assist, 1 steal, 1 block
Murray State, that's where, now reppin' Clipperdom. Since it is
obvious that Elgin Baylor is given no budget whatsoever with which
to assemble a proper bench, the Clip Joint GM is forced to find
diamonds in the rough like this. At first glance, it appears he is
doing his best Jerome Williams impersonation, with the socks, the
body type, and the boards. He comes with a little more grace
though, and a more aligned grill!
So why, exactly, does Boston want to trade Paul Peezy so bad? We
don't get it... Matt Barnes, different city, still doin' it. From
mere training invite, to opening night starter... Carlos Delfino
served up some Argentinian-style baseline breakfast to some poor
Sixer last night... Luol Deng? Or Deng Gai?... The Rick Adelman
deathwatch begins... the Lakers looked like they did well opening
night, but can that last? The bench was almost non-existent, and
Smush ain't averaging 20...
