Happy Halloween. Plenty of games tonight.
Knicks come from 20+ down to force overtime, but perform badly and lost by double digits. Gallinari shot lights out for a stretch in the third quarter but seemed happy to hover around the 3 point line.
Washington recovers from their loss the other night to Atlanta and handles the Nets who really seem to lack any substantial firepower.
San Antonio takes a young Kings team to the wood shed with all the Spurs regulars sitting in the fourth quarter. You can add Spencer Hawes to the list of improving young bigs.
Game of the night, a rematch from a few days ago, Portland @ Houston. Houston took a high single digit lead early in the fourth and held on as Brandon Roy poured in 42 points. Roy loves the left elbow for isolation plays with a shooter buried in the left corner.
The Bucks win against the Pistons who are really searching for an identity. Acquiring firepower like Ben Gordon and Charlie Villenueva really boosts an offense, but their lack of effort on the defensive end will make wins hard to come by. Rookie head coach John Kuester will have his work cut out for him. The Bulls never really considered bringing back Ben Gordon because of his lack of commitment on the defensive end. Seems a change of scenery hasn't improved that element of his game.
Will have a recap of Dallas' second night in LA against the Clippers a little bit later.
