Pistons 126, Knicks 111: “Kinda contentious”

Broadway. CBGBs (RIP). The Apollo. Yankee Stadium (RIP). Ain’t a patch of terra firma anywhere else on the whole damn terra can rival the platforms NYC does.

Rockets shoo away Hornets 105-101

This is a kind of glass half full win. The glass isn’t entirely full, but nor is it entirely empty. It’s definitely better than a close loss by a reverse of this score.

Brooklyn Nets sliced up by Cleveland Cavaliers, lose 112-84

The Brooklyn Nets snuck into the All-Star break in an optimal lottery position and without a crowd of accusers behind them, alleging they’ve compromised the game’s integrity and warped its competitive nature.
