great thread, kudos definitely awarded.
what i first want to note is jason kidd's game against the hawks last night. 19 points, 17 assists, 16 rebounds. just the fourth player to have 19/15/15 since 1986. a couple of the other guys who did it are named magic and bird. he'd also done it once before.
oh and did i mention he's like... 50?

near the end of the game, hawks were up two, and head coach mike woodson was trying to get off the court, kidd plows into him, and the end result was that woodson was whistled for a technical foul for being out on the court. dirk hits the free throw aznd from that point the momentum had changed and the mavs went on to win. some might call it a dirty play, but i thought it was genius.
i had never seen that in a game, and was unaware of the rule. i guess kidd wasn't.
yeah - i thought the coach got off the court and kidd threw his arm out to hit him. I'm not sure what the rule is on that play but the hawks lost a point in a game that went into OT.
mavs look nice. if damp comes back this season they are going to be TOUGH in the playoffs. unless caron gets vertigo mashburn style.
butler hasn't played the last two games. they say it was "bad reaction to medicine", but i am skeptical. he better play tomorrow or i'm officially worried.

How about Scott Brooks for NBA Coach of the Year?!!? He has turned a 23-59 record into 33-23(TO DATE) and almost dead last defensively into TOP5. If that doesn't earn you COY consideration, I dont know what does.
i could back that. i hope the thunder go far. they're so talented, they could really be contending for the championship within the next couple years if they make a couple more moves
