...Derrick Rose is the complete opposite of Rondo.
Singgit lang ko ha... I agree ani, he said that after they beat the Miami Heat on their first meeting and that happened to be their first game of the season. He was referring sa East, so many people are looking at the Heat as the new team to beat sa East, so that win I think was also a statement sa Celctis na they are still the team to beat.

Only 1,000 fans came to see Grizzlies-Bobcats game
CHARLOTTE, N.C. (AP)—Matt Carroll’s first hint was the curtains blocking off the upper deck when he came out for his pregame shooting routine. The effects of a rare Southern snowstorm really hit home just before tip-off when the Charlotte guard was supposed to throw a free T-shirt into the crowd.
“I was looking around and I couldn’t find anybody,” Carroll said. “So I said I was going to throw it up to a zone and see if someone can get it.”
No fans, no problem for these suddenly resurgent Bobcats.
Stephen Jackson scored 27 points and Charlotte beat the listless Memphis Grizzlies 96-82 on Monday night in a game played in front of about 1,000 fans who braved the treacherous roads that shut down most of the city.
Players arrived without much difficulty amid the rare intense snowstorm that dumped about six inches of snow in downtown Charlotte before turning to sleet and freezing rain. The Bobcats put a tarp on the upper deck and invited fans to sit near the court.
While owner Michael Jordan was in his customary courtside seat next to the Bobcats bench, there were large swaths of empty seats. When the music wasn’t playing during the action, you could hear players talking on the court, individual conversations in the stands and nearly every heckler.
“The fans that were there you could hear everything they were saying,” said Carroll, who hit 5 of 9 shots. “It was fun.”
So many were scared away by the weather only four of the more than a dozen dancers showed up to perform during timeouts. People who didn’t show will be able to exchange unused tickets for select future games.

Portland's Brandon Roy to have surgery on BOTH knees
PORTLAND, Ore. (AP) -- Portland Trail Blazers star Brandon Roy will have arthroscopic surgery on both of his knees next week.
The team says there is no timetable for the All-Star guard's return.
Roy has missed 16 games this season because of soreness in his knees, which he has said is caused by a lack of cartilage.
Roy is averaging 16.6 points in 23 games this season. For his career, the three-time All-Star and 2007 NBA Rookie of the Year is averaging 19.9 points and 4.9 assists.
Roy's decision to have surgery was first reported by the Portland Tribune newspaper on its website. It will be performed next week by Dr. Don Roberts.
"I'm trying to do the best thing I can to get back on the floor," Roy said in a statement Thursday. "We've been able to get a number of different opinions and it's something we've decided."
Last season, Roy had arthroscopic surgery to repair the meniscus in his right knee two days before the Blazers opened their first-round playoff series against Phoenix. He made a remarkable comeback and played in the fourth game of the series, which the Suns eventually won.
In an interview Thursday posted on the team's website, Blazers.com, Roy said he may have been putting strain on his left knee after having the procedure on his right knee.
"The biggest thing, I said in the beginning of this process, I'm going to be patient with it and I'm going to try to think long-term," Roy said. "The team has really backed me with that and hasn't tried to rush me. Just try to be patient with it and try to get me back as close to feeling good as possible."
The team announced on Dec. 30 that Roy would sit out indefinitely this season.
The Blazers have been stung by key injuries. Often-injured center Greg Oden is out for the season after having microfracture knee surgery.
Second-yard forward Jeff Pendergraph also injured his knee and required season-ending surgery. And rookie guard Elliot Williams has undergone surgery this season on both knees.
