12/2/2004 09:53:59 PM|||Shep|||So, for those who don't know, I live in Chicago. The obvious implication is I'm a Bulls fan. While that is indeed true, that's not where I'm going with this. The reason I mention that I live in Chicago is because I often don't get to see final scores (and fantasy totals) for West Coast games...

To remedy this situation, I'm creating a feature called "Central Star." It will involve checking scores before I go to bed (maybe not every night; I'm not a machine), and doing a little piece on the star of the day (up to that point - hence: the Central [Time] Star).

And now is great time to kick it off because Tracy "Lazy Eyes" McGrady has a pretty stunning stat line going tonight. Check this one: 45 pts, 5 three-pointers, 8 rebs, 8 assists, 2 stls, 3 blks, 2 TO's... 53% FG and the only downer: 57% from the line... And there's still 2:24 left in OT!

If that's not a Central Star... I don't know what is...

And if you want to know how LeBron did... you'll have to find another weblog. Cause the ClevelandDenver Match-Up of the Century doesn't for another half hour...

Count it.
