Fantastic blog post at Magic Basketball about measuring teams against expectation and narrative.

Stephen Jackson says he’ll play Friday. OF course, he said that a couple days ago and it turned out that he didn’t play. But this time he really means it.

Philadelphia’s offense is a thing of beauty.

When Carmelo Anthony sank the game winning shot against the Grizzlies two nights ago, he turned around to the Memphis bench and said “I do this.”

Blake Griffin would love to have an Olympic roster spot for 2012, but he’s a longshot.

Danilo Gallinari may not be the best defender ever.

Watch Devin Harris travel.

Kevin Love was a dominant Little League player, too.
