Just got to the Paul George dunk on Chris Andersen. Holy cow. What a move.

Going back and watching the game now. Brian Shaw screaming "Ball Don't Lie!" after Allen missed the technical foul shot was fantastic.

George Hill said there's only one person who is scarier than LeBron James, "And that's God."

Is anyone underselling the Pacers now? I sure hope not. This looks like it's gonna be one heck of a series.

SMH

Super Bowl champ Ray Lewis is at this game

Harvey and Sanchez both nearly had the #Twins ... third time's a charm?

Ugh. A hanging slider. Luckily I missed the first 24 outs. #MLB

And here are the foul shots every possession to take away our joy

Hansbrough with a tech for grabbing Wade and pushing him over. I wonder if Haslem will retaliate

Brian Shaw gets a technical for arguing over an extremely weak call on Sam Young. Some home cooking has Heat back in this game

I will never understand people worrying about where players come from. Shouldn't play any factor in who a team drafts or why.

Should be fun “@barcastuff: Santos forward Neymar (21) will sign a contract at Barcelona for 5 years. The transfer fee would be around 30M.”

Billy King has a pretty extensive track record in the draft as a decision-maker, and he's proven that talent will always trump a roster need

One thing you can count on from the Nets: they'll take the top talent on their board when their pick comes up next month.

And here's my blog on this year's draft, & how the talk of it being a "bad" draft doesn't mean Nets can't find value: bit.ly/18oAAiS

Here's my Nets free agency tracker, which should have a lot less movement than the one I put together last summer: bit.ly/10YxH32

Roy Hibbert said he didn't retaliate Battier's knee. Well, maybe he did a little. http://t.co/kaiJc6WFQb

Hibbert talks all things related to Shane Battier's nut shot; also explains why New York's attack wasn't intelligent nydn.us/13QuTpq

P.J. Carlesimo just used Brook Lopez's favorite term v-back on Sportscenter. Amazingness. #Nets

Hibbert on if Battier does it again, "I have no problem putting my nuts in line of fire. ...They pay me all this money, I got to be there."

This caption is hilarious “@Frank Isola: http://t.co/RVy0dpX18h”

My season in review series continues today, this time on the Nets' resident rebounding machine, Reggie Evans: bit.ly/11imSgW

P.J. Carlesimo discussed the Nets, including championship aspirations and Avery Johnson, on a conference call: bit.ly/10PTd93

My story on the report the Nets reached out to Celtics & were denied permission, as expected, to speak to Doc Rivers: bit.ly/16ek3Rd

Report: Celtics' Ainge denies #Nets permission to chat with Doc: bit.ly/16SXDnW

P.J. Strikes Back: Said Avery did Nets' dirty work and strongly suggests #Nets aren't close to winning a title: bit.ly/16SXgJW

Nice ofMariah to start weekend off right by droppin a S-bomb on live TV. Between her & Yeezy going in on SNL, been a rough week for censors

Hard-hitting stuff on morning news: Brad Pitt may have affliction where he can't recognize faces; M Freeman dozes off on live TV. GM Miami!

Why am I wide awake

Tuukka's tumble turns Rangers around espn.go.com/blog/new-york/… #NYR from @katiestrangespn

well, it's golf. Theres a long history of bigotry. “@NYDNsports: golf exec follows Sergio with slur of own | nydn.us/13O1uMt”

Kreider comes through in the playoffs again espn.go.com/blog/new-york/… #NYR

Jackson ... no ... Rivers ... no ... Next? #Nets

Sources: #Nets contacted #Celtics about Rivers espn.go.com/boston/nba/sto…

Plus, by all indications Doc was never really planning on going anywhere, anyway. But, like with Phil Jackson, have to check and see.

No real surprises there. It'd be silly not to gauge Doc's interest if you could, and Boston isn't going to let him go to a division rival.

And here's my story on the @ESPNBoston report that the Nets were denied permission to speak with Doc Rivers: bit.ly/13OKMjG

Blog post: P.J. Carlesimo discusses Nets championship expectations, Avery Johnson and potential successors: bit.ly/10PTd93

Of course, being buddies with players doesn't always translate to respect, but he did mediate the impossible pairing of Kobe and Shaq once

After watching Brian Shaw operate with the Pacers the last 2 days, I can see he has a great relationship with his players.

ESPNBoston is reporting that Nets contacted Celtics about Doc Rivers and were not given permission to talk to the coach.

#NYR wins it. Sick deflection by Kreider from Nash. 3-1.

Brad Marchand just had an unbelievable shift. He's so smooth with the puck on his stick. #Bruins #NYR

This playoff OT stuff is fun isn't it? #NYR #Bruins

Also Vogel won't say subbing out Hibbert was a mistake, places the onus on Paul George: "The plan was sound." soa.li/GjGI3CH

Heat "had a more intelligent attack than New York," says Pacers coach. This won't sit well with Mike Woodson. soa.li/GjGI3CH

Overtime ... 3-3 #NYR #Bruins

Torts just said something to his players I will not tweet ... but he was fired up #NYR

I let people who don't matter get to me sometimes ... #thingsthatwonthappen

Brassard fires wide ... and Boyle shoots one off the '40' ... #NYR with a pair of golden opportunities

A powerplay goal, yes a power play goal by Boyle in the slot and we're tied. Garden rocking. #NYR

#Bruins on top ... Seguin of course it is #NYR

Who are these #Rangers? Where were they the first three games of this series?

My bad that was a bad play by Chara #NYR #Bruins

Rask with another gaffe ... this time behind the net ... Stepan ... we're tied #NYR

My goodness what a save by Hank on Marchand #NYR ... MSG very much live and the home team is too

Umm... Rask just got Boychuk'd ... oddest goal I may have ever seen ... Hags gets it #NYR back in it

2-0 #Bruins ... Howitzer from the point by Ray Bourque Krug finds the twine #NYR

1-0 #Bruins ... Horton from the bottom of the left circle on the PP at 4:39 #NYR

Great defensive play ... by Dan Girardi? #NYR

Nice job by @Rod Boone on the P.J./Avery stuff bit.ly/14Ei5FE #Nets

Preparation is everything. Noah didnt start building the ark when it was raining.

PJ Carlesimo isn't buying into the narrative for why he was fired: "People spin things the way they want to" soa.li/4wA6s7L

The #Bruins don't even need to dump the puck ... their transition game is world-class #NYR

P.J.: Avery did Nets' dirty work bit.ly/14Ei5FE #brooklynnets

#NYR #Bruins No Richards. Savard thinks Torts should be fired. Fun times at the Garden ... and the puck hasn't even dropped yet.

Phil Jackson critical of #Knicks' roster, praises #Nets espn.go.com/blog/new-york/…

They let him do it college though cause he went to Duke. “@Roy Hibbert: That wasn't inadvertent. Battier knew what he was doing”

In interview w/ @HarveyAraton Phil Jackson indicates he prefers Nets' roster to New York's because of Brook and Deron nytimes.com/2013/05/24/spo…

Brook Lopez finishes fourth in All-NBA center voting, misses out: bit.ly/10qudq2

Brook left off All-NBA teams bit.ly/16VHdMi #brooklynnets

Lopez finished with 132 points and seven first-place votes. Dwight Howard had 203 points and 17 first-place votes and was on the third team.

I'm not sure why people keep saying Brook Lopez got no votes for All-NBA. He actually had the most votes of any player who didn't make it.

The #Nets two-day combine at the PNY Center, aka the "Bobby Marks Invitational," has wrapped up. Next year, it's shifting to Los Angeles.

Can Brook Lopez be named an All-NBA team replacement? #Nets

Here's how Brook can help earn himself a spot on one of the All-NBA teams next year: Increase those low rebounding numbers.

Brook received 132 total points and 7 first-team votes. By far, he had the most points of any player who didn't make the team.

Deron Williams received 6 votes and Raymond Felton (yes, Raymond Felton) got 3, or as many as Kyrie Irving.

First Team All-NBA: LeBron, Durant, Kobe, CP3 and Tim Duncan.

2012-13 All-NBA Third Team David Lee, Paul George, Dwight Howard, Dwyane Wade, James Harden.

Nets are shutout but Brook Lopez nearly made it with 132 votes (most among players left off) including 7 first team votes.

2012-13 All-NBA Second Team - Carmelo Anthony, Blake Griffin, Marc Gasol, Tony Parker, Russell Westbrook.

2nd team: Melo, Westbrook, Gasol, Parker, Griffin; 3rd team: Lee, Paul George, Dwight, Wade, Harden.

2012-13 First Team All-NBA: LeBron James, Kevin Durant, Tim Duncan, Kobe Bryant, Chris Paul.

All NBA First Team announced: LeBron, Kobe, Duncan, Durant, CP3.

Brook Lopez doesn't make an All-NBA team. Duncan, Gasol and Howard did as Cs #Nets

You won't steal my joy!!! instagram.com/p/ZqTn9Li8GM/

Now I have to go for a run: Japanese man, 80, oldest to scale Everest soa.li/ShEeadD

Coach K is an incredible leader. Playing for him and representing my country has been a blessing in my career and I'm glad he will be back

LeBron James spoils everything for Paul George, and Frank Vogel's decision to pull Roy Hibbert falls under criticism nydailynews.com/sports/basketb…

Some include Peyton Siva, Brandon Triche and Alex Oriakhi.

Back at the draft combine the Nets are hosting today. Lot of recognizable names to college hoop fans participating today.

With no coach currently to help out in the draft evaluation process, #Nets are relying on front office continuity: newsday.com/sports/basketb…
