Every night there are some stupendous, silly, stupid, or downright outlandish individual lines from around the "lig." Doing Lines lets you know which one tops the list.Marc and Pau Gasol didn't play in the same time zone Friday night -- in fact, Pau's night of work ended before Marc's even began. The suspicious might wonder, then, if the brothers pulled some trickery to get Pau to Sacramento in a fat suit. While Pau slayed the Nets with an incredible 36/11/7/2/2 line, Marc was the real shocker.
Marc raked the Kings for 27 points and five rebounds. Neither Spencer Hawes nor Jason Thompson could handle Marc's girth in the paint -- the younger Gasol even shook the Immortal Calvin Booth a few times! Ugly work, but beautiful work from Marc.
Returned to the Kitchen: Chris Bosh hasn't quit on Toronto's tremendously bad season, racking up 21 points on 10-of-18 shooting, with 13 rebounds and six assists.
Warming Up: Can you believe it folks? We're only three! weeks! away! from a potential Kobe vs. Ryan Hollins smack war! Hollins is warming up, putting out nine points, eight rebounds and four blocks in 22 minutes against Denver. Kobe scored 14 points on 19 FGAs, with nine assists and four steals. It's on!
Public Notice: Carmelo Anthony scored 43 points and added 11 rebounds in the aforementioned Nuggets win. It needs to be noted.
