Wow!!! Ballin!!!

These are a little late, but I still wanted to share...

Hate to see anyone go down. Especially when they are on my(first place) fantasy team! Of course Chris Paul going down is the story of the game against the Blazers, but lets take a look at some in-game box scores. Here is CP3's line from the first quarter:

Min(12:00) FG( 1-6) 3Pt(0-1) FT(0-0) +/-(+8) Off(1) Reb(2) Ast(9) TO(0) Stl(2) BS(0) BA(0) PF(0) Pts(2)

OK. So. Wow. He had 9 assists in 12 minutes...with no turnovers! Obviously, its not realistic to expect him to continue on that pace, but over 40 minutes that's 30 assists. This has only been done once by none other than Scottie Skiles in 1990. There is no doubt that Paul will get there before he stops lacin' em up. Also, notice the two steals from the league leader. As our friends over at dontjinkesme pointed out, the Hornets were up 17 when CP3 went down only to lose the game...ouch.

Kobe drops 61 then 2,000

I don't have complete stats, but as much as I hate to show Mamba any love... he was at one point during the game, drippin, soaking, steaming(like dog poo on a frosty morning) wet. That doesn't really make sense you say....how could he be saoking and steaming? Well his jumper was WET aaaaand, he was blazin' like Lil' Wayne during a Cypress Hill concert(or vice versa).

kobe 11-14 3-4 27 points

And that was mid 2nd quarter. Those are just beautiful numbers. 80% from the floor and that's not even taking into account free throws.

Then later that night, chillin' with the homies, he decided he needed to offset his lack of passing the rock(3 assists), by dropping a big enough tip for the waitress(via Slam) to pick up a rock of her own(bling bling). Pass the ball Mr. Low-top.
