Of The Week: Nov. 18th to 25th

...Of The Week is CB40's look back at what happened in the NBA in the past week, including the best dunk, statline, clutch play, and blunder of the week.



Hit the jump to see the best dunks, statlines, and other happening of the last week in the NBA...



Some more ferocious dunks for you basketball fans this week. Russell Westbrook slammed vs. the Warriors, really hard (good thing Stephen Curry moved), while Terrence Jones got up and dunked vs. the Lakers, even the Lakers crowd seemed to appreciate it, and Andre Iguodala had a Blake-Griffin-on-Timofey-Mozgov-esque spin and slam vs. the Wolves. However, the dunk of the year so far goes to the UNC product Harrison Barnes, who destroyed Nikola Pekovic, that was just plain dirty.


David West had the most efficient line this week, with 30 points on 10 of 14 shooting, including 10 for 10 from the line, to go along with 8 boards, 3 assists, and 4 blocks. KD also got his first career triple-double last Sunday, when he had 25 points with 10 assists and 13 rebounds with three three-pointers. Another honourable mention goes to Tony Parker, who scored 33 points on 15 of 23 shooting, with 10 assists. Paul George had a career statline, and gets the award this week, with 37 points on 13 of 21 shooting, with 9! threes, 4 assists, 4 boards, and no turnovers vs. the Pacers. 


Props to Gordon Hayward, who nailed the shot vs. the Kings to put the Jazz up 104-102 with 4 seconds left, and Danilo Gallinari who iced the Hawks with a three. But, the award this week goes to Kyle Korver. Korver drained a three with 1.9 seconds when ATL was down by 2, to give them the 101-100 lead.


This week, the NBA refs blew it. In a Raptors-Bobcats game, i know it sounds irrelevant, but I'm from Canada, I love my Raptors. Anyways, at the end of the game, Andrea Bargnani clearly got fouled, he doesn't even just shoot it five feet short. The NBA admitted that they missed the call, but still...Whaddayadoin' NBA refs!!!
