Funniest things about the All-Defensive team voting: Kobe Bryant getting five votes (one first-team) & Mike James getting a first team vote.

Fred Kerber

#Pacers David West on Roy Hibbert not making any all-defense team: "No comment"

Tim Bontemps

The Nets had no players receive any votes for the NBA's All-Defensive Teams.

Rod Boone

#NBA announces the All-Defensive teams. #Knicks Tyson Chandler was first-team center. No #Nets received any votes.

Harrison Barnes is lucky that shot by Manu didn't go down. That ankle breaker would've been replayed for ages.

Tim Bontemps

That's an embarrassing final possession for Golden State. Have to get something better than a 20-foot fadeaway.

Fred Kerber

For #Knicks, Shumpert has 8 rebounds. Everybody else has 12

Fred Kerber

With #Knicks v #Pacers, how about first team to score 20 points in a quarter wins and we call it a night?

Fred Kerber

This was what NBA had in mind when scheduling a month between Games 2 and 3: #Pacers 36, #Knicks 33. Great hi-scoring 1st quarter. Oh wait..

Fred Kerber

As at Garden, fans here of firm belief "These refs suck." Trying to determine where suckage is greater

Fred Kerber

After taking 10-pt lead 34-24, #Pacers finished half against #Knicks shooting 1-of-7 with two turnovers.

Fred Kerber

#Pacers wanted 2 get West & Hibbert more shots each had 7 in G2 They have 17 combo at 4:50mof half. More important: 13 rebs. #Knicks have 16

Fred Kerber

One more thing that makes NBA playoffs basketball so enjoyable: the 21 minute TV timeouts

Fred Kerber

Okay get the pool going: what's gonna be higher, turnovers by #Pacers or knucklehead decisions by #Knicks JR Smith?

Fred Kerber

#Pacers spent all week talking about reducing turnovers. Still have five in first 10 minutes

Fred Kerber

#Pacers Lance Stephenson asked what impact no #Knicks JR Smith would have answered with indisputable logic: "They got less scoring"

Fred Kerber

#Pacers FVogel on #Knicks JR Smith's shooting: "I don’t care what the numbers look like...He’s always one shot away from catching fire."

Tim Bontemps

Here's my game story from Chicago, where the Heat and Bulls took their dislike for one another to another level: bit.ly/10Dqaeo

Fred Kerber

In #Pacers press room old Undy paper with memorable front page for priorities: 'Hoosiers--NCAA Champs" above story of Reagan getting shot

Tim Bontemps

I came away really impressed by him. That said, not sure I agree with his sentiment that he doesn't expect further discipline from the NBA.

Tim Bontemps

I'll say this about Nazr Mohammed: stand-up, class guy. Stood and answered every question, and was eloquent and honest in doing so.

Tim Bontemps

Asked Nazr if he expected further punishment: "I doubt it. I don’t think so, but it’s out of my hands. It’s up to the league to decide."

Tim Bontemps

More Nazr: "You can’t push a guy down and expect nothing to happen. Our league has changed in that aspect."

Tim Bontemps

More Nazr: "I’m disappointed I got kicked out ... but I don’t think I should’ve got kicked out for pushing a guy."

Friday, May 10

Tim Bontemps

More Nazr: "I shouldn’t have pushed him. I let my teammates down. I could’ve been out there helping."

Tim Bontemps

Nazr on ejection: "It’s a different league from when I got into the league. I see a lot of things I didn’t see years ago. I was surprised."

Tim Bontemps

Nazr Mohammed on his initial foul on LeBron James: "It was a soft foul."

Tim Bontemps

LeBron on why he didn't come back at Nazr after push: "If I get kicked out and Nazr Mohammed gets kicked out at the same time, who wins?"

Tim Bontemps

Damn, that was an impressive finish by LeBron.

Tim Bontemps

That's the third dumb foul Noah has committed in this game. Now Bosh gets two free throws because of it.

Tim Bontemps

It's like LeBron flipped a switch. Now he's being incredibly aggressive and attacking the rim.

Tim Bontemps

The Heat are making a lot of really awful turnovers tonight.

Tim Bontemps

And we're headed to the fourth tied at 70. Should be a wild final 12 minutes.

Tim Bontemps

What's better: Nate Robinson blocking Yao Ming, or Nate Robinson blocking LeBron James?

Tim Bontemps

Dwyane Wade is a disaster right now. Not sure what's up with him, but he's not playing well at all.

Tim Bontemps

Miami is making a concerted effort to get Dwyane Wade involved early on here in the third.

Tim Bontemps

For all the flak he takes, Chris Bosh is outplaying Joakim Noah tonight. Has 10 points and 10 boards in 19 minutes.

Tim Bontemps

I'd guess we won't see Nazr Mohammed again until Game 5. Assume he'll have to get a game suspension for that whole thing.

Tim Bontemps

I'll be very curious to get an explanation about that series of events later on.

Tim Bontemps

I should say, I can understand why LeBron reacted like that to a degree, but Mohammed's actions were bizarre.

Tim Bontemps

I can't understand what happened there, from beginning to end. Why Nazr fouled him, why LeBron reacted like that, why Nazr shoved him.

Tim Bontemps

Explosion here in Chicago. Nazr Mohammed will be thrown out, and deservedly so, for shoving LeBron to the ground.

Tim Bontemps

The Bulls fans here are going to be very unhappy when Noah gets assessed with a technical foul on the play.

Tim Bontemps

Silly play by Noah there. No reason to push Andersen on that. No reason at all.

Tim Bontemps

Interesting that Butler stays in the game. Like the move by Thibodeau. Looks like he has him playing a one man zone instead of guarding LBJ.

Tim Bontemps

First big moment, as Jimmy Butler has two fouls and likely will head to the bench. This is where no Deng really hurts Chicago.

Tim Bontemps

It's a very sound strategy, though. Mid-range jumpers are the least efficient shots you can get, especially contested ones.

Tim Bontemps

And, yes, I know that's Chicago's strategy. That's why I noted the Heat are hitting them. If they do, Bulls are sunk.

Tim Bontemps

That was a ridiculous pass by LeBron James to Chris Bosh. Heat getting a lot of open looks from mid-range and knocking them down.

Tim Bontemps

After a great start for Chicago, Heat have gone on a quick 12-3 run and silenced the crowd here inside United Center.

Tim Bontemps

The Bulls are bringing out all the stops today. Have Scottie Pippen bring out the game ball to a huge hand before tip.

Tim Bontemps

No Derrick Rose again tonight for the Bulls. Likewise for Kirk Hinrich and Luol Deng.

Mike Mazzeo

Hollins optimistic he'll return as Griz coach espn.go.com/nba/playoffs/2… #Nets

Fred Kerber

#Pacers Frank Vogel sez #Knicks cause most Indy turnovers:"It’s not a fluke.They’re 2d-best in the league at it.That’s what makes them great

Mike Mazzeo

Curry signing seems like another low risk potentially high reward move by #NYG Had productive 2009/10 ... fallen off since

Fred Kerber

#Pacers George Hill asked 2 describe coach Frank Vogel: "He’s a realist. He’s going to tell us when we play like crap and when we play good"

Fred Kerber

#Pacers have Paul George and George Hill. Thanks God there's no Paul Hill or I'd never know who the heck I'm talking to

Fred Kerber

#Pacers Paul George told of #Knicks JR Smith allegedly clubbing with Rihanna asked who he's partied with: "I don’t really go out like that"

Fred Kerber

#Pacers FVogel on being home v #Knicks:"We have confidence playing anywhere probably more at home but we certainly have lost games home too"

Mike Mazzeo

As has been reported, #Nets are targeting to bring over Bojan Bogdanovic next year, and his camp is optimistic it'll happen, sources said.

Stefan Bondy

Heard a lot over the past three days how much the Indiana players respect Brian Shaw.

Fred Kerber

#Pacers FVogel on Amare: "you close your eyes or blink on Amare'e Stoudemire and he's dunking on you"

Stefan Bondy

"I feel like the time to do something was yesterday." Scary reality. nytimes.com/2013/05/11/sci…

Stefan Bondy

Now it's Amare who returns before Derrick Rose.

Tim Bontemps

Joey Crawford is on the crew for Game 3 tonight. Is it possible we'll see even more technical fouls tonight than the nine in Game 2?

Tim Bontemps

Taj Gibson fined $25 grand but isn't suspended for Game 3 tonight.

Tim Bontemps

2nd, Bogdanovic will probably be the one FA signing for more than the minimum this summer. Will likely sign for the mini mid level exception

Tim Bontemps

First, don't expect him to play in Summer League. Because of the free agent moratorium, he won't sign until just before it ends.

Tim Bontemps

Couple of additional things about Bogdanovic, some of which I mentioned in the blog posts I linked to:

Tim Bontemps

Hat tip to @Josh Newman for reporting on this first.

Tim Bontemps

And here's a corresponding post about how Bogdanovic signing would impact the Nets: bit.ly/134r0wO

Good morning. Rise and shine!!!! ☀

#Pacers George Hill on Game 3 Saturday: "The good thing is everyone (fans) is going to be off work."

Fred Kerber

#Pacers Paul George on Hibbert at rim: Gives me confidence I know I have the footspeed 2 stay in front of guys but I can come up & pressure,

Fred Kerber

Some leftover quotage: #Pacers David West on split: "We’re satisfied with what we did in New York."

Fred Kerber

Wanna thank the genius who thought 3 days between Gs 2 and 3 of #Knicks v #Pacers was good idea. Also love mumps, flat tires, airline delays
