Ballin': Gerald Green's Head Continues to Rise Above the Rim With Ease
By Jason McIntyre
We wrote about the Clippers and Knicks losses last night.
Charlotte 73, New Orleans 71: I can’t believe people actually paid to attend this game, though the few lucky ones who did got to see a tremendous finish. The teams combined to attempt just 14 foul shots. The Bobcats were 0-12 on three-pointers. That’s futility.
Milwaukee 105, New Jersey 99: The Nets were without Deron Williams and nobody could stop Brandon Jennings (34 points, 7 rebounds, 7 assists). Kris Humphries, the most hated man in the NBA, scored 31 points and collected 18 rebounds. Gerald Green continues to elevate:
Utah 105, Detroit 90: Al Jefferson’s grandma died Sunday, and he honored her with a 33-point, 12-rebound effort.
San Antonio 112, Washington 97: Tim Duncan, coast-to-coast. JaVale McGee wanted nothing to do with that jam. The former Wake Forest star passed Clyde Drexler on the NBA’s all-time scoring list and is now 25th.
Minnesota 127, Phoenix 124: No Rubio, no problem! Ellington, Williams and Beasley combined for 49 points off the bench, and Kevin Love added 30, as the Wolves shot 14-of-22 from deep and won on the road.
