Sixers get a couple rough calls and completely collapse, squandering a 23 point lead. Ridiculous.

Can the heat win more then 16 games this year?

Will Boston beat the rockets on tuesday?

Will kevin durant realize he's 6'9 or so and get more then like 2 rebounds a game?

Can the Brandon roy lead the young trailblazers into the playoffs?
