Paul George (27/2/5) scored 19 of his 27 points in the first half as the Pacers offense clicked all night long. Shooting 57.6 percent from the field, Indiana held the 76ers to 46.7 percent shooting. In the loss, Timothe Luwawu-Cabarrot (24/5/3) set a career-high in points and went 8-for-12 shooting, including 4-for-5 from th


They balanced things out and finished the season as the No. 2 seed, then dominated the Eastern Conference. They beat the Philadelphia 76ers (4-1), Boston Celtics (4-1) and Chicago Bulls (4-1) before they were stopped in their tracks by German engineer

The Big Three got off to a slow start initially, though, and analysts immediately began to ponder if the trio of LeBron, Dwyane Wade and Chris Bosh was more hype than results. There were even questions about whether Erik Spoelstra was the right coach for this t


Playing without John Wall was no problem for the Wizards, as Bradley Beal (33/2/3) stepped up to fill the scoring column. While Washington lost the turnover battle 17-10, they were able to hold off Ish Smith (16/2/9), Tobias Harris (22/5/2) and the Pistons down the stre


In 2k12, the only players who had better ratings were LeBron James of Miami (98), Dwyane Wade of Miami (96), Kobe Bryant of the Los Angeles Lakers (94), Dwight Howard of Orlando (93) and Chris Paul of New Orleans (93). Rose's 92 was equaled by Kevin Durant of Oklahoma C

Depending on who you ask, D-Wade is the third to fourth best shooting guard ever and by all accounts a sure-fire Hall of Fame candidate. He is still getting it done today and would have been huge wherever he was draf


The Bucks were sensational from three-point range, going 16-for-28 on the night. Oddly enough, they attempted just five free throws in the victory, hitting three of them. Gianni Antetokounmpo (10/11/10) recorded a triple-double over 36 minutes played in the low-scoring contest. The Hornets played without Kemba Walker, who sat out to r

The Clippers outscored the Rockets 36-12 in the third quarter and at that point, the game was essentially over.
