Pay no attention to the man in the black uniform!

Andrew Bynum may be the first person to be Stud of the Day while having tried during his game to get the guy who he was guarding (who isn’t good) into the Studs as well. Alas, he did not succeed as DeAndre Jordan lost in a very close race fore the 4th, 5th, and left off spots of the Stud list. The Lakers also manged to win the game despite having a terrible performance from Dud of the Day Trevor Ariza. Tonight was the kind of night that was the exact opposite of our last S&D episode. There about 15 guys who could have been Studs had their games been on other nights. Mike D’Antoni was able to beat his old team at MSG, the ever-charging Bucks (led by Stud Charlie Villanueva) smashed the Mavs, Stud CP3 beat down the Nets after his counterpart (and All Star hopeful) Devin Harris left with an injury, the Rockets beat the Jazz despite an incredible night by Stud Deron Williams, the Cavs beat the Blazers in Portland led by (who else) Stud LeBron James and sidekick (33 points) Mo Williams, my Wiz actually escaped Sac’to with (tons of help from Tough Juice and ‘Tawn and) a 110-107 win after the Kings missed a buzzer beater 3-pointer, and the Thunder won as they got past the lowly Warriors 122-121 in an awesome finish which featured a Jamaal Crawford bank shot with one second left to go up one and a buzzer beating turnaround by Jeff Green to win. You’ll see it in the top 10 after the jump, along with the lists, and my who SHOULD be voted All Star starters for both conferences when the starters are announced tonight on TNT at 7pm before the the Magic/Celtics and Wiz/Lakers doubleheader…
