Five games were played to end the month of February.
The first game, featuring the Suns and the Nets (D-Will's first home game with the Nets), was more interesting than expected. The key of this game: bench points - Phoenix had 64 with Gortat leading the way with 17. D-Will had 13 points and 18 assists (playing with an injured wrist), but it was not enough to get past the Suns, who pulled away with a 104-103 victory in OT. Frye made a long 3-ball for the win the six seconds left on the ticker.
Chicago demolished the Wizards by 28. Rose and Boozer are working well together, should be scary for Boston and Miami. Nick Young, probably the brightest spot for the Wizards (aside from Wall) had 14 on the night. The Wizards' awful shooting percentage (35.6) is what kept them out of this game).
Denver beats ATL at home. No 'Melo, no problem. Nuggets are 3-1 without Carmelo, with a big win over the Celtics. J.R. Smith with 19 on the night.
In the final two games of the night, Boston grabbed a W in Utah, but the Jazz did not make it easy. Boston is still #1 in the East, while the hurting Jazz are falling down the standings winning just 2 of the previous 10 games. Meanwhile, Cousins and Griffin were battling it out in their game, both of whose teams have no realistic chance of making the playoffs this year. Sacramento came away with the home win with cousins dropping 29. Griffin also had a monstrous night with 27, 12 & 4.
