NBA Triple Threat: Magic Keep Rolling
12/4/07

NBA Triple Threat: Your (almost) daily roundup of last night's action in the Association:

Orlando ends Warrior win streak Orlando continued to be a force to be reckoned with, ending Golden State's six game win streak 123-117 in overtime. Dwight Howard had an insane 23 rebounds and seven blocks, but nearly blew the game when he hit the padding on the basket on a missed dunk with 18.7 left in regulation. That's an automatic technical, and the resulting foul shots kept Golden State ahead. They couldn't make the free throws at the very end, and Orlando was able to force overtime. From there, Howard made up for his miscue, scoring four points, helping give Orlando an early lead in overtime, which they would hold as Golden State couldn't hit a shot in the final minute.

The most amazing thing about the Magic's early run is not that they are 16-4. It's that 11 of those wins have come on the road. That's the sign of a legitimate team.

Mavs nip Bulls Look on the bright side, Bulls' fans. Your team gave it a good effort against Dallas, only to fall short 103-98. For a team looking for a spark, Chicago's 38 point fourth quarter rally against an elite team might be in. Dallas rode Josh Howard (27 points) and Dirk Nowitzki (25 points) to a lead big enough to sustain the rally.

Jazz win 8th straight at home Utah also beat Miami for the first time in seven tries, 110-101. With 3:44 to play, the Jazz only lead by 2, but went on a 9-2 run to seal it up. Miami is now 4-13, which is really all that needs to be said about them.

Best Lines
  • Dwight Howard, Orl: 18 pts, 23 rebs, 3 ast, 7 blk...It wasn't all good for Howard. In addition to the technical, he turned it over 9 times.
  • Josh Howard, Dal: 27 pts, 10-20 FG, 10 rebs, 6 ast, 2 stl
  • Brandon Roy, Por: 26 pts, 11-21 FG, 9 rebs, 7 ast...In addition, Travis Outlaw hit the game winning shot to give Portland its first road win of the season.
Rumors du Jour
  • Pau to Chicago? - Here we go again. If they couldn't get it done last year with the benefit of PJ Brown's expiring deal, how can it get done without it?
  • Cook: Kobe's trade demands hurt team - Obviously, a bit suspicious coming from the newest ex-Laker. Still, could the rest of the Lakers feel that way?
  • Wizards not concerned with fatigue - However, they're down to 10 players, and Abe Pollan refuses to spend for any other warm bodies. Not a good combination.
Now it's your turn: share your thoughts on the on and off court action Monday in the NBA.

About the Cook - Kobe demand thing.  I think its obvious that Kobe demanding a trade would at the very least sting all the players on that team.  It may not have been meant to be, but it was essentially a backhanded dis.  However, he did also say in the same article that the team came back together during training camp.

I was at the Bulls game, and it was nothing to be excited about as a Bulls fan.  They couldn't shoot the basketball for 3 quarters, and Skiles insisted in continually putting Nocioni on the bench despite his being the only hot hand.  The team is playing like their lost right now, as if everyone is looking for someone else to step up and be the leader.
