Spurs coach Gregg Popovich was seemingly at a loss for words.

Despite what Atlanta Hawks owner Michael Gearon might think, Kevin Garnett in not a dirty player.

The Los Angeles Lakers were seconds away from facing an insurmountable 3-0 deficit against the Oklahoma City Thunder in the Western Conference semifinals. Now their 48 minutes away from tying the series in a rare back-to-back postseason contest.

Kobe Bryant scored eight of his team's final 10 points on Friday and the Lakers willed their way to a 99-96 win over the Thunder in Game 3 of the Western Conference semifinals.

Lou Williams scored 13 of his 15 points in the second half as the Philadelphia 76ers overcame a dismal first half to take a 92-83 victory over the Boston Celtics and even their Eastern Conference semifinal series at two games apiece.

Dwyane Wade has to be hurting, right?

The Atlanta Hawks have exercised head coach Larry Drew's contract option for the 2012-13 season.

Los Angeles Lakers center Pau Gasol has been named the recipient of the NBA's J. Walter Kennedy Citizenship Award.

The reeling Los Angeles Lakers hope a change of scenery can get them back into their Western Conference semifinals set against Kevin Durant and the Oklahoma City Thunder.

For one night at least Kevin Garnett and the Boston Celtics made us all put away the age jokes.
