Thoughts around the NBA… Lakers and Mavericks played last night and the final score looked like a college basketball score. Led by Derek Fisher’s three pointers the Lakers beat the Mavs 73-70. Kobe did not have one of his better games shooting 7-22 finishing with 14 points. Dallas didn’t exactly shoot lights either…yet the Lakers are 10-5 on the season. By the way, in New York how long do you think it will be if the Knicks (6-7) don’t start putting it together before the chants of fire Dantoni start rocking the Garden? Can Orlando decide where to trade Dwight Howard? Mavs, Lakers and the Nets are Howard’s choices, with Golden State making noise as well. Orlando needs to get the best possible deal for Dwight Howard otherwise he walks at the end of the season as a free agent and the Magic get nothing in return. Oklahoma City Thunder are 12-2 and that started a fun debate between Shaq and Charles Barkley as to who is the best player in the league. Charles Barkley thinks it Kevin Durant, Shaq countered with LeBron but also stated the best big man in the game is … Andrew Bynum. Charles never at a loss for words countered with Dwight Howard. Shaq explained that Bynum has more moves around the basket left hand and right hand while Dwight Howard has only two moves and works off the pick and roll. So the question is who is the better big man? Andrew Bynum or Dwight Howard or Kevin Durant? Or is there some one else?

Best big man? Bynum? I don’t think, i might have to go with Kevin Love. Surprisingly, and Dwight also would play with the Clippers now.
