Healthy Kobe Bryant or injured, the Los Angeles Lakers weren’t supposed to win on the road against the Indiana Pacers. But Dwight Howard is in a different mode at the moment, and so is the rest of the team, so even 0 points from their almighty ruler couldn’t stop them from getting an unexpected yet huge win. More
Some nights things go easy for the Houston Rockets from the start, but other times it’s a struggle, and a huge uphill battle. With James Harden on his finest form, and Jeremy Lin bringing one of his best games of basketball this season, even a 20 point deficit wasn’t enough to keep them from carrying on with their hunt for a playoff spot.

After losing by 42 points in their previous game, the Chicago Bulls had to respond with some sort of impressive display, and it came on both ends of the floor, which is quite surprising for the Bulls these days, as Carlos Boozer, Luol Deng and even Nate Robinson each scored more than 20 points in a huge road win over the Golden State Warriors.

The road to perfection, or at least late-season perfection, continues. The Miami Heat have now won 21 consecutive games, something only two other NBA teams have ever done, while Chris Bosh takes the place of Dwyane Wade as the sidekick for a night, with LeBron James firmly in place with another solid performance.

By losing 59-51 to Alabama A&M in the quarterfinals of the SWAC tournament, the Grambling State Tigers basketball team finish the 2012-2013 season with a 0-28 record, becoming the eighth team in NCAA division I history to finish the season without a single win. More
Maybe Dahntay Jones did make a dirty move and walked on Kobe Bryant after fouling him, but probably not. It doesn’t matter. The Los Angeles Lakers can’t win against good teams on the road, and in the next couple of weeks, are going to try and do it without Kobe Bryant, injured as the depleted Atlanta Hawks came through with the win.

A night that was about returning and former players began and ended with plenty of smiles for the Houston Rockets, who didn’t need any heroics from James Harden or something special from Jeremy Lin, getting to play as an actual point guard for once en route to an easy yet very important victory. More
There’s no chance the Chicago Bulls don’t make the postseason, but at this rate, with this kind of basketball, what’s the point?
