TBJ Ep. 472: Big Weekend

By J.E. Skeets

Monday to Friday, The Basketball Jones look at the big games and story lines from the night before with a mix of in-depth analysis and irreverent humor. As always, questions and comments are appreciated.

On today's show, Skeets and Tas round-up the weekend's big winners and losers. Congratulations to Hornets' fans, the Magic's defense, Elton Brand(notes) and Kobe YouTube editors. Try again next week Nets, Nate Rob, Vincent Lamar and the Wizards. All that, plus possible first time All-Stars and the league's best clutch shooters.

Welcome to the working week! (Sigh.)

    Since the Magics loss to the Cavs, they have played a lot better on defense. Even Vince was diving for loose balls on Friday against Boston. Air France? lockdown d. shut down Durant the other night too

    Skeets... Tas... my first time watching TBJ. Definitely a good show... I liked the format and your opinions. Canadian, eh? Really, eh? Oh well, it's still a good show.

    Brandon Roy over Baron Davis in 2008 was crap, therefore the argument on tenure/previous league time/abilities doesn't really work.

    Winner: Phoenix continuing their hot streak on the road
    Loser: Detroit showing their road show could use a better opening and closing act.

    You're right jojo, these guys do suck!
    Can't even mention the Milwaukee Bucks. Suppose to be one of the worst teams, lose Redd and Bogut and still keep winning!!

    Lakers are ok but lack a killer instinct as shown last year I KNOW they won but it wasn't pretty (kinda lame) in other words it wasn't impressive.

    Kobe will win MVP this year. Cavs will finish 3rd in East maybe even 4th if Hawks stay healthy this year.
