11/6 for Jefferson in the 1st...
Wonder if he’s trying to show up D. West and prove that he deserved the all-star selection? Or maybe he’s just being Al Jefferson.
I never thought of it that way.
Devin Brown is a basketball God!
Good observation.
Devin Brown is a basketball God!
yep, he's gone
You know he wasn’t trying to hurt Miller… but I guess the refs have to call that a flagrant 2.
That might be game right there.
Aw shit! No more D-West.
Now its just like the last game against Minnesota except we don’t have CP3 either. GREAT!
Devin Brown is a basketball God!
Team responded well though...
I don’t know if they can win this without D. West… but maybe, it would be a hell of a win.
Hell yeah it would. Beating Minny without CP3, TC, DX, and MoPete.
It looks like the team is getting pumped just like after TC’s ejection.

Unrelated: Anyone see the Spurs/Celtics game?
I was hoping the Celtics could knock the Spurs down a bit… but the Spurs played very well. They are the Spurs, of course, but I think they are playing better than anyone even expected right now… and are running away with the SW division right now. Hopefully they get tripped up soon.
Yeah...
It’s funny that Boston’s big 3 gets all the attention, when San Antonio’s Big 3 is quite clearly better. Duncan is at worst, = to Garnett, Parker > Ray Allen, and Ginobili >>>>> Pierce.
No no no Manu>Pierce!
Paul Pierce is one of the most clutch players in the league. Manu at his best is = to Pierce. Paul Pierce is a stud especially in the postseason not saying Manu’s not but Pierce is better to me.

I don't like Daniels taking threes
I know he can hit them sometimes but its not a consistent shot for him…
Man is Sean Marks growing on me. His hustle is what's getting it done.
Devin Brown is a basketball God!
Me too even though I hate to admit it.
Devin Brown is a basketball God!
Definitely. Just one of those calls that goes against Sean Marks because he's Sean Marks.
By the way Sean, no more jumpers.
Devin Brown is a basketball God!
SEAN MARKS IS THE MAN!
That would have been a turnover if Marks didn’t grab that ball and dunk it home.
Wonderful win.
Completely unrelated: Did anyone see that Nets/Nuggets game?
How did the Nets stomp Denver like that? A 44 point victory over Denver.. ? Wooow. Either Denver is much worse than everyone thinks, the Nets are much better… or it was just a complete fluke (which is certainly possible).
I LOVE SEAN MARKS!

There was a lot of bad blood towards the refs in that game. I, however, wondered why everybody was booing when David West was ejected. What he did was uncalled for.
You wonder this at home
But we were not shown a replay in the arena. I still haven’t seen the play. From what I saw (it was in front of me but not super close) it looked like he was going for the block, badly mistimed it, and came down on his neck. Which of course they have to take seriously, but it could have been a Flagrant 1. Again, though. We got no idea. They never show replays in the arena.

I was at the game.
I was in the balcony area. I saw the play clearly, and wondered why people were booing when West was ejected. David has an anger problem. What he did was ridiculous.
I don't know.
It’s a contact sport. And this team needed a little grit. I don’t think David was trying to hurt Miller.

An anger problem?
Frustration problem perhaps… but he wasn’t trying to hurt the dude, it was a mistake.
