Portland 97 @ Charlotte 102
Time Warner Cable Arena

When Gerald Wallace does a All-Star weekend caliber dunk over the top of 7-footer Greg Oden, you know you’ve got a good game. Despite the fact that the game went into overtime, that dunk is all the media wants to talk about. Anyway, the Charlotte Bobcats did indeed win against the Portland Trailblazer in overtime. Gerald Wallace finished with 31 points and 16 points, while Emeka Okafor went with 22 points and 11 rebounds in the win. For the Blazers, LaMarcus Aldridge had 21 points, and Brandon Roy had 17 points, but shot poorly.

New Orleans 91 @ Detroit 85
Palace at Auburn Hills

The night after suffering an embarrassing loss to the Oklahoma City Thunder, the Detroit Pistons again couldn’t get the job done, losing to the New Orleans Hornets. Chris Paul made up for his poor performance against LeBron James and the Cavaliers, finishing with 23 points and 14 assists. David West added 20 for the Hornets, and Tyson Chandler earned 11 points and 11 rebounds. Richard Hamilton led the Pistons with 20 points, but lacked the support to end the Pistons longest losing streak since acquiring Rasheed Wallace in 2004. To make things worse, with Hamilton and Tayshaun Prince playing injured, Allen Iverson appeared to injure his knee. He was able to continue, but claims that he has no idea how it will heal.

Philadelphia 107 @ New York 97
Madison Square Garden

Just before halftime, the Philadelphia 76ers got the lead for good. And they got it in an interesting way – a hybrid alley-oop and 3 pointer by Andre Iguodala. Iguodala had 28 points and 10 rebounds to help his team reach .500 and enter many people’s playoff calculations. Andre Miller added 27 points and Louis Williams had 15. Al Harrington had 26 points, while Quentin Richardson had 19 and Wilson Chandler had 17. The sixth pick of the 2008 draft, Danilo Gallinari, made his 3rd appearance of the season, returning from injury, and scored 6 points. Elton Brand is expected to return for the Sixers within the next week.

For the Heat, Dwayne Wade finished with 29, and Shawn Marion added 20.

Utah 108 @ Dallas 115
American Airlines Centre

Jason Kidd finished with 11 points and 15 rebounds, Jason Terry had 22 and Brandon Bass had 17 to help the Mavs to victory. For the Jazz, Deron Williams had 30 points, and Mehmet Okur had 23 points and 11 rebounds.

Milwaukee 92 @ LA Clippers 101
STAPLES Centre

The Los Angeles Clippers received another injury in the game against the Milwaukee Bucks, but they didn’t let that stop them, cruising to a 9 point win against the inconsistent Bucks.
