On that team Bosh should be rebounding at a much higher rate but he's 43 in the league for rebound rate which doesn't cut it when they have no one else inside.

If that's the case, why isn't Dirk rebounding?

And I can tell you why Bosh isn't rebounding, his name is LBJ. Not many SFs rebound like him.

I know this. Just saying, if Bosh wants to drop the "soft" label he needs to rebound better. Dirk has never been a prolific rebounder, nothing new there.

The point is they are two different types players. I am not making a case for Bosh, just stating that Bosh rebounds better than Dirk and can't discount him for that.

On NBATV, NY and DEN are playing, Melo's old team.

Al Harrington and the Nuggets heating up. Harrington rubbing it in the fans of his old team.

Melo can't hit a basket to save his life. Still only down 4 though.

[HeatCheck]

Great pass from Melo to Fields, now down 2.

[HeatCheck]

Harrington just willing Denver to a victory. Extra motivation when playing NY.

[HeatCheck]

Melo ties it with 1.7 secs left. He was defended well and it really wasn't that great of a possession but it worked.

EDIT Going to OT as Harrington misses last second shot.

[HeatCheck]

WOW!! Andre Miller's 30 foot 3 ties the game with the shot clock running down.

[HeatCheck]

Feeling a Melo winner. EDIT Nope hah.

Awful OT for NYK or should I say Melo. They relied way too heavily on him and Melo was too selfish. Amar'e barely touched it in the 4th or the OTs.

Melo is a selfish player, what do you expect?

No I realize that. He shoots a lot but sometimes he is on and sometimes he bails you out, which he did on occasion in this game. This was something different, in that Amar'e didn't shoot the ball in the 4th or either of the OTs. Just bad offense.

... And in today's news, the Magic only score 56 points vs the Celtics.
