... take an extra day or two off to be safe. But if he's up and moving around, you know he'll be in the gym anyway, so you might as well let him play. Side thought: What is it with Paul's knee giving on him (and then appearing to be fine)? Of course we remember the Finals incident, and now this. Is this something to be worried about?

Scott Cacciola of the Memphis Commercial Appeal: “For stat gurus like Roland Beech, who runs the Web site 82games.com and consults for the Dallas Mavericks, the work is rewarding. Numbers have a way of objectifying the chaos of the NBA. ‘A lot of the basketball stat guys are dismissive of the baseball stat guys, because baseball is a very easy game,’ Beech said. Whereas much of the action in baseball involves just two individuals, the pitcher and the hitter, basketball features 10 players on the court at one time and countless variables. Players depend more on their teammates, relying on them to defend and rebound and pass them the ball. ‘Baseball ...
