While you install that three-story walk-in pantry ...Coach LeBron. After kicking coach Mike Brown out of a team meeting Tuesday morning, LeBron James had 26 points, seven rebounds and six assists as his Cavs beat the Pacers 105-94 to clinch a playoff berth. I'm not sure what Coach LeBron said to fire up his team -- "Free bikes if we win!" -- but boy, did it sure work. The Cavs shot 52 percent from the field, outrebounded the Pacers 43-33 and made eight more shots from the line.
This is Why They Play the Games. God, I hate that saying. Rookie Tarence Kinsey -- um, excuse me? -- scored a season high 24 points to lead the lowly Grizzle to a shocking 88-86 victory over the Lakers. Kobe Bryant, who I heard had done some scoring over the last little while, shot 7-of-26 and scored only 23 points. Please don't try and make sense of this.
The NOOCH Haven't Partied Since 1999. Josh Howard had 25 points and 10 rebounds as the Mavericks beat New Orleans/OKC 105-89 for its 21st straight victory over the Hornets. Get this: the Hornets haven't beaten the Mavs since the Y2K bug threatened to turn my coffee maker against me. It's the longest losing streak for one team against an opponent in all four major leagues (NBA, NFL, NHL and MLB).
Sonics 114, Wolves Less. No words. Should have sent an artist. (Wait, we did!)

I'm surprised that no soul has posted a blog on the recent embarrasing loss by the Lakers here in fanhouse. How come? Are you such a bunch of Kobe lovers that you are protecting his reputation after having such a horrible game scoring only 23 points against the worst team in the leauge, not to mention the fact that damon, mike miller and chucky atkins were absent from the game? Kobe scores 50 points, 3-4 blogs, Kobe and the Lakers embarrased, 0 blogs. I can see now.
