Not many man games for teams tonight as it's a light NBA schedule. Yuma was able to pass French in PTS tonight and that has French at 1011 currently. As mentioned, this will go back and forth for the rest of the week. I hear Kobe is going to play one more game before the playoffs. That could be a key for Yuma to stay in the hunt with French in this category.
A week tonight I'll be watching ever so closely following every move of every player. It will be intense.
David West had a monster line tonight. 21pts, 14reb, and 7/1 ATO. Nice. He's a pretty damn good 12 and 6 guy this year.
Granger went off again tonight. He's really improved his game in over the last 15-20 games. Tuna couldn't give him away earlier this year and now he's on fire. He might be back on teams' radars for next season after his big finish.
Ilyasova had a last minute DNP tonight. I'm not sure that's good or bad actually. As the % categories go - maybe it's better he does sit out?
Pekovic was 23 and 9 tonight - but he's stuck on my bench. I thought Minny might shut him down so I went the safer route with Kevin Seraphin.
Ant Rand had 15 pts, 10 reb, and 3 blocks tonight. So much talent. So many chances. So many times he keeps coming up short.
The Pistons? They need a makeover. Ugly roster.
The Rockets have lost 6 in a row. They are now on the outside looking in on the Western Conference playoffs. It's weird but Kyle Lowry returned 7 games ago. Correlation? Coincidence? The question this off season will be what to do with Dragic and Lowry. They can't keep them both. If Dragic lands a starting gig somewhere - look out! Courtney Lee and Chase Budinger are not a JBL roster right now. Shocking! Both have been very, very good down the stretch.
What am I watching closely?
I'm watching French's 3PT%. Can he move up any more in this category?
I'm watching Maui and Golden battle it out in ATO. I passed the Ribs for a bit tonight but once CP3 hits the floor I keep falling behind. Maybe the Clippers will clinch a certain playoff seed and then rest him? That's Golden's only hope.
I'm watching the battle of blocks between French and Juan. Currently, its 449-448 for Juan. As stated before, it benefits Golden the most if they tie in this category.
I'm watching FG% as Juan and French again are literally tied at 46.0%. They flip flop the 13 points all night long it seems. I am also watching Arctic's %'s as he is 45.9% and just 0.1% behind. If he could somehow, someway, pass one or both of those teams that would be awesome for Golden's chances.
I'm watching Juan slowly stalk Seoul in steals. It's gonna happen. Juan will pass him. That's 13 more points for Juan. And tonight, because of man games, I am now within 4 steals of French. I don't think I will catch him - but I'm keeping an eye on it.
I'm watching the Yuma/French PTS battle. I think French will win the battle but that doesn't stop me rooting for Brandon Jennings, JJ Barea, Randy Foye and Steve Nash tonight.
And I'm watching 2 rebound races as Juan is within 100 of the Wack and French is within a hundred of Arctic. Again, 15 points for each team on the line.
And I'm keeping an eye on the record setting squad in Brussels. Currently at 184 tonight. Wow.
Just another great night in the JBL.
