Welcome to the fifth edition of The Base Line Cut, otherwise known as the BLC. It's a bit like a BLT, but without the tomato. Here we'll be taking a look at what is popping around the NBA, with a particular focus on the quality sites across the Bloguin Network. Tue-tue-tuesday, I choo-choo-choose you!

- We have had some amazing point guards come into the NBA this season. The likes of Tyreke Evans, Brandon Jennings, Stephen Curry, Darren Collison, Jonny Flynn (and the list goes on...) have had their teams salivating at the future. Add to that the fact that the most lauded of all point guards, Ricky Rubio, didn't even make it this season, and the future is very bright for the floor generals of the league. Take a look at our Rookie of the Year rankings and you won't be shocked to find the top five stacked with point men.
Meanwhile, the NCAA's March Madness is upon us. And the college ranks is still full of talented point guards, just itching to get a shot at entering the NBA. True Blue Jazz takes a look at who the top point guards will be on your television screen during March Madness.
- Wendell Maxey tells us about Portland Trail Blazers rookie Jeff Pendergraph's cancer scare.
- Don (With Malice) and Zach (Talk Hoops) had a twitter interview (= twintterview) about the Sacramento Kings v Los Angeles Lakers match-up.
- A two-win streak in New York is reason for excitement -- particularly when you consider the play of NYC-area NBA teams in recent history. So Knicks Fanatics is happy to report that the Knicks knocked off the Philadelphia 76ers last night to hit two on the trot.
- Matt Satten of Barkley's Mouth is podcasting his way through some fantasy basketball issues -- listen to the replay of last night's live blogtalkradio appearance.
- Bustabucket alerts us to the fact that it's time to vote for the Portland Trail Blazers (as well as the Cleveland Cavaliers and San Antonio Spurs) in the latest edition of votes for players in the new NBA Jam.
- Project Spurs asks, who is the Spurs' MVP this season?
