Crazy NBA day

Dirk and Wade's last home games
crawford 51 point game
magic stepping down
paul george game winner


Jamal Crawford is 39, and decided to sign with the Suns last summer instead of ring chasing.


In the beginning of the season he got a gamewinner as the guest.


Today though, this old guy put up 51 POINTS.


It wasn't his last game or anything, so the other team was not letting him.


The 51 points makes Jamal Crawford the oldest player to score 50+ points, topping Michael Jordan and the first player to score 50 points on four different teams. He also added five assists and five rebounds.


Two records! Incredible performance, topping an all-time great.




Yesterday was also coincidentally Dirk Nowitzki and Dwayne Wade's last home games.
More coincidental was the fact that the same two players would be playing their last game today on a back to back.


Both guys scores 30 points, and Dirk Nowitzki broke Michael Jordan's record of oldest player to score 30 points.


xD Jordan had two of his records broken in one day.

Before all of this, Magic Johnson shockingly stepped down as Lakers president....

That's pretty big, and the Lakers this season have not only been a disappointment, but also a complete mess.


After LeBron almost traded away the entire Lakers roster for Anthony Davis, these young players were affected in a negative way, except for Brandon Ingram.

The Lakers faced with a heck ton of injuries from Rondo to Ingram, Kuzma, Ball, Mcgee, Lebron James, and more.

The Lakers were fourth seed before LeBron hurt his groin on Christmas. The Lakers would proceed to drop to eighth seed, and when LeBron came back, they only lost more.



Then Magic Johnson chickens out and lets some other guy deal with this mess.

None of this is great for attracting free agents.

He was stated to barely put any work in his job, and was often somewhere else doing other activities.





Then Rockets Thunder. I watched this game live. EPIC GAME.



The Thunder were down 4 with 25 seconds left with the ball. Usually this is GG.


Westbrook choked on an earlier play with a turnover, but he redeems himself as he pulls up from deep and drains it. Crazy shot.


They immediately foul Harden, his two free throws are knocked out by Westbrook's quick two. They foul Harden again, AND HE MISSES A FREE THROW


AHH


Down two, Westbrook is double-teamed, and finds George in the Corner. Good contest by P.J. Tucker, but Paul George drains it to give the Thunder the lead with 1.8 remaining.

I think Paul choked his attempt or something.


Nice 14 point fourth quarter comeback from the Thunder and incredible game winner for George.



BUT THAT"S NOT ALL.


Lakers Blazers was pretty crazy, as Caruso was clutch.
(I didn't watch it so I can provide you with little information. If you want to know more go watch the highlights.)

Before you know it Maurice Harkless adds three poitns to his 23 poitns and eight rebound box score through a game winner. Damian Lillard caught the attention and found the man, similar to Kemba Walker's find on Jeremy Lamb during the Hornets Raptors game.
