Curry goes for 20 points. He has really fit in well with the Kings.
Mason had 15 points and 15 boards for Portland. Got to wonder why he gets paid only 1.4 million while Ed Davis who scored 6 points( averages 8 pts per game ) gets paid 5 times as much as Mason.
Guess he should get a bonus for being the best UNC big man in the league. At least he is better than Tyler H. who will soon be playing YMCA Bball in a Charlotte league.

I have not followed NBA as a whole but I have always followed all my Dukies at the next level. Even the ones overseas. It is nice to see Duke alum being productive at the next level. I used to get so tired of hearing about Duke players were great in college but fizzed out in the league. Nice to see. Anybody remember when Grant Hill received the most votes for the All Stars in his rookie debut. It was the first year that some cat named Jordan didn't receive the most votes from the fans in a few years. Or was it his 2nd year in the league. Cant remember getting to old. OFC

Mason is still on his rookie deal. With tv money tripling, he'll surely get a nice raise.

I will preface this with the statement that I don't watch the NBA, but I will be happy when the season is over just so I don't have to hear about Kobe's last season anymore on Sportcenter.

By the way, the new Sportscenter morning show is atrocious. 2 of the people don't even know about sports.

Seth has really come on in April. In six games (31.2 minutes per) hes averaging 17.5 points and 5.3 assists, while shooting 53% from the field including 57% (!!) from three. Really happy to see him getting the opportunity and making the most of it. Hopefully it leads to a decent contract this off season.

In addition to Seth and Kyrie having big nights last night, Miles picked up 13 rebounds in just 21 minutes.

Really happy to see Seth getting a chance, and taking advantage of that chance.

Anyone see that Karl told Seth he wouldn't last long in the league? Seems it lit a fire under Seth. Karl didn't play him all year long and now he gets time and produces decent stats. Except for last night, lol.

Right after it came out that Karl told him that, he had one of his best games of the year. He got interviewed on the court after the game and Cousins came up to him and said something like "you're going to be in the league a long time. You hear me?" I thought that was pretty funny

Kyrie was fantastic and clutch again tonight. Fun to watch when he's got it going.

I'm glad Kyrie seems to be playing to his potential. For most of the year he seemed uninspired to be honest. Wouldn't be surprised if he wants out after this season.

Watched a good bit of the LA vs Portland game last night.

Hendo made some plays and finished with 10, 5 and 4.

Mason had a double double and played hard every minute he was in. 10, 15 and 3 for him.

J.J. is fun to watch. His teammates don't seem to look for him enough IMO. Though last night isn't a good example of it. He struggled to finish inside the arc going 4-11 on non 3 pointers. Finished with 19, 2 and 3.

Rivers was a little out of control at times put made some nice plays. Finished with 13, 3 and 3.
