Attentions are drawn to the winning streak of Pacers since the starting of the 2013-14 season. Pacers could extend the series only to 9-0. But by the way more better performances are shown from Spurs and Blazers so far. Blazers beat Warriors in Oakland with 113-101 and Spurs beat Cavaliers with 126-96 at home and so they have 10 wins in last 10 games. This performance can be normal for Spurs but it seems that Blazers outdone themselves. Spurs: 12W-1L and Blazers: 12W-2L keep going. (23.11.2013)
Mavericks’ veteran player Vince Carter made four 3-points in the game against Nuggets. So he made his 1,682nd 3-point in his entire career. So he passed another veteran Steve Nash and became 10th player in NBA. Vince Carter: 1,685, Steve Nash: 1,682. But Steve Nash is still an active player who is playing for Lakers. It seems that this race between these two will continue throughout the 2013-14 season. In the same game Nuggets’ another veteran player Andre Miller made 4 more assists, passed Rod Strickland and became 9th in the NBA all time assist made. Andre Miller 7,991, Rod Strickland: 7,987. Two milestones are reached in a single game. Pretty cool. (23.11.2013)
Kyle Korver: 87. Atlanta Hawks:87 Boston Celtics:94. Only 3 games left to break the record. (23.11.2013)
LeBron James made 22 points against Magic at home. So he achieved his 508th consecutive double digit point game and tied Kareem Abdul-Jabbar. (Heat won the game 101-99) LeBron James is the 5th player in the NBA history who reached 500 game streak with double-digit scoring. Kareem Abdul-Jabbar has two lines in this record. One is 508 double-digit game the other is 787. LeBron James tied one of legendary Kareem’s number it is quite tough for LeBron to reach the number 787.

Chris Paul of Clippers made 22 points and 9 assists against Kings at home. So his double-double streak starting the season ended at 12 games. He broke the record with one game but couldn’t bring it further. Clippers beat Kings after a very tough game 103-102. (23.11.2013)
Derrick Rose injured again. He will have a knee surgery again and his return date is unknown. Although I think that he has an undeserved reputation, I am really sorry for his injury. (23.11.2013)
It is declared that Derrick Rose is out for the entire season after knee injury. As I mentioned before even though I cannot like this guy but I am sorry for his situation. And so Bulls couldn’t have any championship chance for this season. (25.11.2013)
Pacers beat Timberwolves at home 98-84 and made it 13-1. And they didn’t lose any game at home so far with 8-0. Both statistics are Pacers’ franchise records. Moreover Danny Granger isn’t playing for the team because of his injury. I have been waiting such a performance from Pacers for about 6 years. But but… I cannot like this team! I don’t know why. There is something repulsive in this team which I couldn’t figure out. Maybe the NBA warrior Metta World-Peace (old Ron Artest) has played for Pacers. That’s why I am pissed off with this team maybe. Well dunno. I call him Metta World-WAR by the way. Watch Malice in the Palace and see why: (25.11.2013)
Spurs beat Pelicans 112-93 and Blazers beat Knicks 102-91 and got their 11th consecutive wins. Spurs’ 13W-1L performance is their best start in the club history. By the way playoff actors begin to emerge one by one. (25.11.2013)
Kyle Korver:88 Atlanta Hawks: 92 Orlando Magic:109. One game to tie and two games to break the record. Korver played 1/6 in 3-points in this game. The series almost ended. (26.11.2013)
