1. Apparently the Chris Paul-Rajon Rondo incident stems from more than just in-game irritations. Rondo played on Paul’s frustration with the situation in New Orleans, according to Adrian Wojnarowski of Yahoo Sports, telling Paul, “I’ve got a ring, and you’re never gonna win one.” Ouch.

2. The Utah Jazz went all out for Halloween. Paul Millsap dressed like T-Pain, Kyrylo Fesenko was Beetlejuice, Deron Williams was some guy named Bob from “Martin,” and Carlos Boozer was…noticeably absent. Go figure.

3. The price of the average NBA ticket fell for the first time in eight years, according to The New York Times. It was a 2.8 percent decrease - down to $48.90. The reason? Some blame the recession. Others, a lack of parody. As for me, I blame the absence of Stephon Marbury.

4. Bethlehem Shoals praises NBA League Pass. As a transplanted Kings fan in Los Angeles, I can’t recommend it highly enough.

5. Thanks to Ron Artest, Lamar Odom is adding fruit to his diet.
