It’s on.

As I write, it’s the end of the third quarter in the Lakers/Clippers game, with the Clips down one. Portland had an uneven game up north against Houston, but pulled out the win. Did I mention that NBA League Pass is free this week? Hallelujah. It’s on.

The Warriors open tomorrow night, with our friends at Golden State of Mind sponsoring some actual, guaranteed great times out. Read them. Follow them. For they do almost all of the heavy lifting for us local hacks, covering the minutiae that may make us crazy, whether or not we can find time to write about it. For anyone not knowing, on designated GSoM Nights (this being the seventh) they block off about 700 seats, give away shirts, and host pre- and post-game festivities. Meschery and I will be there to rep the beard and see what this year might bring for the Dubs. If you’re not going tomorrow, definitely check out the next one.

I’ll update the Lakers/Clippers results, but I’ve got to watch this game. Basketball, you’ve been gone too long. Good to have you back. Let’s rap about tonight’s action and tomorrow’s pregame in the comments.

Up with hoops,

Turman

Update: Kobe went for 33 and the Clippers came up short. The Beard was gallant, but appeared to be running on a bad wheel. That, hopefully, was the reason Cryptkeeper Dunleavy kept him on the bench in the fourth until the 4:30 mark. And oh yeah, LeBron and the Big Bodyguard got handled at home by Boston. In spite of Bron’s 38. Big comeback for Agent Zero too; 29 and 9 in a win over Dallas. This is going to be fun.

  1. Why don’t NBA teams ever state in Oakland? The Claremont hotel not good enough for them?

  2. Is it just me, or is ‘Sheed pulling sort of a Cornel West look this year for the Celts?

  3. There can’t be enough Cornel West looks in the league by my reckoning. Politics either for that matter. As for the Claremont, I’m guessing that they want the “pre-game activities” that only San Fran can really dish up. If only for one night, I suppose I might too.
