		<description><![CDATA[Thanks for the advice, Kent. You are right that no one cares what you think.  I think you meant &quot;drink&quot; a beer.  If I had known earlier all this was so important to you, I would have stayed out of it.  By the way, I can recommend some good books on punctuation and grammar.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Glenn you had an excellent overview of last nights game . The NBA package allows one the chance to see how good a Bledsoe is . Very few guys his size who can block a 7 -footer. Any NBA team would love to have him. 
 Wish they had more than 1 game left in the regular season versus each other. Sets up to be a great and then some playoff match up.
 You are definitely a knowledgeable fan !]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Thanks ERIC LOL - you can have the last word.  If it makes you feel better i like Westbrook . And as usual i was right - you weren&#039;t a fan of another team ( ? )and are now an NBA fan .
 I could care less about a game in January - i just like to watch good basketball !
  Memo to Eric : It&#039;s only a game - who cares what someone else thinks about your team . Think it bothers Durant i don&#039;t like him ? LOL 
  Life&#039;s short - have fun - relax - chill out - drank a beer - take a puff - you will live longer !!
  Seeeeyaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The Thunder played a good game, got some help from the refs (Letting them play through, when fouls normally would have been called early on), and the fact that nothing would drop for Bledsoe, Barnes, and Crawford, who normally all play much better. Also the Thunder had a franchise high in 3&#039;s, which is nothing to sneeze at. Thunder played a very good game, and it is ignorant to deny that the Clippers were disadvantaged not having the #1 point guard in the NBA last night.

The Thunder can&#039;t take anything of substance from the game, and neither can the Clippers. They are really evenly matched when all are healthy, and any given night, either can win against one another. As someone who watches every game for both teams (Which obviously the NBA TV people [and Trammel] do not...one saying Bledsoe is &quot;not a defender&quot;), I think this is one of the best, most even match ups in the NBA and will continue to be. A different set of refs, a few more drops for any one of the three aforementioned Clippers bench players, and a healthy Chris Paul, the outcome could have been very different.

I am looking forward to more of these match ups and you will see both in the long Western Conference battle for top spot.]]></description>
