“It was something that was in the back of all of our heads,” Walker said of the losing streak. “We didn’t want that streak to keep on with us, so to get it over with now was extremely important.”
It also gave coach Mike Dunlap a big victory in his first game as NBA head coach.

Tarik Black is a great get for Kansas. I can't wait to watch that team and see how they improve. He brings much needed size+experience.
Howard's frustration with D'Antoni is no secret. He was also frustrated when Kupchak said MDA was safe. That put potential firing on Dwight.
None of my fellow Yankee fans are watching that fictional 30-for-30 that's on right now. It didn't happen.

RT @danielwinston3: Do the same salary matching apply to trading a player for draft pick? ---> yes, a little easier for non tax teams RT @mhulicius: ---> Dwight won't be "demanding" anything... Lakers will present and he'll either sign or walk. RT @mhulicius: do you think lakers will take it seriously if dwight demands jeanie buss to take over for jim buss ---> No. RT @nba_spen: ---> the thing to remember about Kenny is he came to the game very late and hasn't had a lot of structured basketball. RT @nba_spen: I really like Kadji. But I think he's limited due to age. He's 24, right? ---> Kenny turned 25 yesterday... RT @saintwalker191: why not. Jimmy Butler has made him expendable. ---> ask OKC how trading away depth works out... #TooSoonOKC?
