    in the Chris Paul vs Stephen Curry debate, my analysis is that it's a good thing we don't count turnovers... but Paul probably still had the better night.

    Paul: 42 PTS, 2 3PM, 12-20 FG, 16-17 FT, 1 OREB, 1 DREB, 15 AST, 6 STL, 6 TO
    Curry: 38 PTS, 9 3PM, 14-23 FG, 1-1 FT, 0 OREB, 3 DREB, 9 AST, 0 STL, 11 TO
    In the best of times, our days are numbered, anyway. And it would be a crime against Nature for any generation to take the world crisis so solemnly that it put off enjoying those things for which we were presumably designed in the first place, and which the gravest statesmen and the hoarsest politicians hope to make available to all men in the end: I mean the opportunity to do good work, to fall in love, to enjoy friends, to sit under trees, to read, to hit a ball and bounce the baby.

      Of course Paul had the better line. An outstanding FT% and helps your cumulative percentage more than Curry's to go with 6 more assists and 6 steals vs 0. Stephen Curry only won the 3 pt battle in our league. FG% is about even.
      Bob- I'm not exactly sure it would ROCK as you say it Byron.. it may be cool, by typical text book descriptions. Your opinion of this is shallow and poorly constructed, but allow me to re-craft your initial thought into something tangable.

        That was an awesome game to watch. Both those teams hate each other so much they don't even pray together LOL. Also, anytime Curry starts to sizzle, it's an immediate text or online message to buddies.

          Anytime the top four teams in the East are playing each other, it's must watch TV. It's such competent basketball.

              Sigh. I waited too long on him because I wasn't sure what to expect.

                Considering that he was drafted at the end of the 16th round, we all had that same feeling...

                My dilema is having too many injured guys...I don't want to cut them, because I think that they're all going to be able to contribute, but at the same time, I'm handcuffed when it comes to plucking the WW.

                But...Aaron!

                      It's still better than mine.

                        I like Amit's team, especially with Westbrook returning so soon. Barring a couple injuries, I think he has the team to beat.

                          That's every year, but don't be so modest. You are also one of the sharks in this pool.

                          I am just gald I grabbed Spencer Hawes when I did. He might drag me into the upper half.

                            Man the season has been a lot of fun so far. It's early but the reigning champs look like they are teetering. The Pacers look freaking dominant. That's a hungry and tough team. DRose hasn't worked the kinks out ... yet. And as always, I'm overjoyed that the Lakers are a mess.

                              Tyreke Evans... man, he's making a lot of money to be a 10th or 11th man.

                                Not on my roster.

                                I am still stunned by the 76ers, with Indiana and Cleveland in the mix.
