This week is kind of light in both the college and pro basketball arenas. The week’s best college matchup – UT/Florida – isn’t even on national television. Oddly enough, the week’s best NBA matchup – Clippers/Mavs – isn’t either. Maybe the week’s most interesting matchup is on Thursday, when Ron Artest visits Kobe in LA.
