Line Of The Night — 11/16/2007 — Unpublished Edition
We won’t be with ya’ll for about week, after this… and what a night! Enjoy that turkey.
Line Of The Night:
Damien Wilkins — 41 points, 9 boards, 2 assists, 2 steals
Even when he shines, ya boy Kevin Durant is gonna get all the pub. To the general public, this game might as well not even happened, but the L.O.N. offices were tuned in, even with Josh Smith out with a strained quad. And what a game. Wilkins was on fire throughout, shooting 15-20! Joe Johnson dropped 39 to keep the Hawks moving. You had Marvin Williams, an L.O.N. favorite, notching every stat in the book. Then there was a hobbled Tyronn Lue making all types of plays in OT, making the Hawks announcers go wild. But it all came down to one man, with one unguardable shot. At 6′9″ on the perimeter, Durant can get a shot off whenever he needs to. In this case, whenever was with the clock at about 1 in double OT. Kevin Durant from three… BANG! First game winner. First of many.
Triple-Double Of The Night:
Jason Kidd — 19 boards, 11 points, 10 assists, 2 steals
A good game for Dirty Jerse, huh? Eeehhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhnnnnn
Near Triple-Double Of The Night:
LeBron James — 40 points, 10 boards, 9 assists, 3 blocks
Sick. So why exactly can’t he lead this team to the playoffs? This was against Utah, one of the top Western Conference squads.
Free Louis Williams Of The Night:
Louis Williams — 19 points, 4 boards, 3 assists, 3 steals
FREE LOUIS WILLIAMS!!! Even the Philly home crowd is starting to feel us. After Lou led a second half comeback, Mo Cheeks took him out with 3 minutes left and the boos rained down! He came back in soon after and nailed another trey. The catalyst for in a 22 point comeback win.
“House is a rockin’, don’t come a knockin””.
We couldn’t give a full segment due to the team he played for last year (Ohio State), but Daequan Cook telling some hapless Boston Celtic to eat his breakfast? Pun-a-rific!… The Ceatles barely hold off a rejuvenated, D-Wade-led Heat team for a 1 point victory… Manu for 6th Man Of The Year AND MVP?… David West, welcome to the 40 point club. Sleep if you want… Sebastian Telfair, of Phil Ivey?… Smush Parker. Hair. Sarah Jessica Parker. Hair… P.J. and Riles — we are going to keep it funky like Tom Gist: Those are terrible suit coats… Anthony Parker from 3-quarter-court!!!! It’s GOOD!!!!!!….
