The NBA took the day off yesterday, since, as Patrick pointed out, there was little chance they could compete with college football games. Makes my job easy, though, so I’ll take it.

I’ll also take the opportunity to let you know that even though the actual mid-season isn’t for another 20 days, BasketballMonster.com is offering mid-season memberships for only $9.95. We use BasketballMonster.com on a daily basis for our analysis and I use their trade analysis page any time anything trade-related happens in one of my leagues.

All Eyez On Me: Could be time for big games from the Boston benchwarmers if the starters are able to take advantage of the Wizards and not have to play for a quarter or two.

Miami @ Orlando should be a good one, but it doesn’t appear to be available through any television stations (at least according to Yahoo). I guess everything else today is only on local channels, so if you want to watch some basketball, you’ll have to turn to NBA.com’s League Pass Broadband… which is not offering the same sort of mid-season discount as Basketball Monster. LPB will run you $99.95 right now. Ouch. I guess someone’s got to pay for the upgrades they made in the off-season.

The Golden Ticket: Golden State is playing Minnesota tonight, putting their 4-17 road record to the test against the Wolves 3-12 home record. Should be a Barn F’n Burner. But, Golden State is involved, so who knows, maybe Mike Miller will go off for 50 points.
