Getting Even Better

He may have led the San Antonio Spurs to the NBA title last June, but Tony Parker appears to be getting even better.

The All-Star point guard looks to continue his outstanding play Friday night when the Spurs visit the Minnesota Timberwolves.

Taking on The Wizards

Antawn Jamison and Caron Butler have been shouldering the offense for the Washington Wizards while Gilbert Arenas has been out, but both had subpar performances their last time out.

Jamison and Butler try to bounce back and help the Wizards extend their longest winning streak over the Philadelphia 76ers in a decade when they visit the Wachovia Center on Friday.

No Easy Task

The Golden State Warriors have finally managed to reach the break-even mark after a dismal start to the season.

They'll try to move above .500 and extend their longest winning streak of the season Thursday when they host the surging Houston Rockets.

In The Mood For Points?

The Denver Nuggets were one of the hottest offensive teams in the NBA when they made their first trip to Staples Center. Since then, they've been one of the coldest.

The Nuggets look to snap out of their offensive funk when they visit the Los Angeles Lakers on Thursday in a matchup of two of the NBA's highest-scoring teams.

Home Court Advantage

The New York Knicks have finally strung together back-to-back wins for the first time in nearly a month. Making it three in row will have to come at the expense of the revamped Boston Celtics - who've yet to lose to at home.
