Murdering it.
Gold Performance
Dwyane Wade is playing like a man possessed. His latest effort – a 43 point, 6 assist, 3 rebound performance against the Suns on Friday night – quickly stole the spotlight from that whole Shaq vs. Miami thing, and lead the Heat to a 107-92 road win in the process.
Silver Performance
The Bobcats welcomed Jason Richardson back to the line-up on Friday night, but it was his backcourt partner Raymond Felton who stole the show. Felton poured in 31 points (a career high) in an overtime victory over the Pacers, adding 7 assists and 2 steals while he was at it.
Bronze Performance
One day after Chris Bosh announced to the NBA that he’s gunnin’ for the MVP award this season, he let his play do the talking for him on Friday night against the Hawks in Toronto. Bosh got his double-double on with 30 points and 10 rips, and added a season-high 7 dimes for good measure. Oh, and the Raptors won the game 93-88 – which makes us at BATB very happy people.
Stinker of the Night
If you’re looking to pinpoint the 76ers early season struggles, may we suggest taking a look at Samuel Dalembert? Philly(7-9) got pounded last night by the Celtics in Beantown, while Dalembert was held scoreless with only 4 rebounds in 24 minutes of play. He’s averaging a meager 6.6 ppg for the year.
