While the storm rages in the East, cancelling two games, the most interesting place in the NBA on Saturday was Cleveland, where the Cavaliers lost their first game after firing David Blatt to the team that usually handles them pretty well in the regular season: The Chicago Bulls. The Charlotte Hornets with the Lin-Walker combo won two games in a row for the first time in a month, the Phoenix Suns needed a miracle shot to actually win a game and while inconsistent as anyone right now, the Portland Trail Blazers are fun to watch with their dynamic backcourt duo that lit up the Los Angeles Lakers.

The most impressive teams on a short Thursday night of NBA basketball were the Cleveland Cavaliers, led by a generous LeBron James against the Los Angeles Clippers, and the San Antonio Spurs in an easy, as expected, win over the sad looking Phoenix Suns.
