    I was just reading the rockets and the clippers preview for tonights game, until i read this.

    "Forward Lamar Odom, who shared Rookie of the Year honors with Houston's Steve Francis last season, shot just 3-of-11 on Wednesday".

    Whaaaaaat, last i remember, it was Elton Brand of the bulls. DO these espn people have any clue what they are talking about??

    At first glance, I was about to say that that you were an idiot for posting Odom, then I finished your post....and again wonder what the hell they are doing over there.

    Actually it is nba.com that is communicating this information. I think ESPN's page links back to the NBA.com page.

    We do not host ESPN's web page. I have no idea who is hosting that page. We only host NBA.com in Beltsville, MD.

    I should have been a bit tighter in my language. It is my contention that ESPN provides the content for NBA.com. If you look at the bottom of their homepage (http://www.nba.com/), you will see a logo that reads ESPN Internet Ventures. I remember awhile back that the NBA wanted to farm it out, seeing as their site was a total joke and all.
