Recommendations for reliable nba score info?

Most of my betting is at halftime of nba games, and as it turns out I seem to be absorbing a bit of a hit from using the ESPN-posted scores, which often turn out to be incorrect. I am speculating that there are three-point shots and last-second shots that need to be reconciled during a break, and ESPN is slow to reflect the new scores after they are updated. And occasionally ESPN just shows the wrong score.
Added to that, on my iPad, there seems to be some kind of web page coding issue where, when no scoring takes place for a while, the teams score which was most recently updated will temporarily flash back to the previous score from before when the last basket was made.
Nba.com is not viable because when looking at the entire card, it shows the scores but not the box scores. Flashscore and scoreboard.com seem reasonably reliable but they only show the minutes left in a given quarter (not the seconds), and they tell you nothing about what is going on in the game (time-out, etc.). SBR odds isnt bad but it can get pretty slow.
Are there any other websites for nba scores that are more reliable and timely?

Looks good, thanks! Ill give it a go...
Thanks kdog and sa215. I downloaded the app but it looks like the main score page, where all the games are listed, doesnt show the quarter-by-quarter scores, which I need to see. So far the cbssports web page has been pretty good for what I need. Ill just have to keep using it for a while to make sure its good on accuracy...
All that stuff you are looking for is there, just click on the game and it opens up.
Sorry, I didnt mean to imply yahoo doesnt show the quarter-by-quarter scores. What im saying is I prefer to see that format on the cover page rather than clicking in to see those details....
