Kawhi took that personally.

That's okay. I say that especially because of Boban. Is there any poster here who doesn't have him as their favorite player in the NBA? And then you have Porzingis running all over the floor and doing everything at 7'3" with a roster that generally has no business being in the playoffs. And the only reason why they're here and taking the best-built WC team the full distance is Luka, who clearly doesn't even think much of himself while completely blurring any distinction between manipulating defenses and just screwing around for the fun of it.

Watching the Dallas Mavericks is the basketball equivalent of going to a Tom Jones concert. You don't do either with any seriousness, and you just kind of laugh throughout and then walk away from it smiling. Who doesn't root for the Mavs?

Harden goes down with another hamstring injury.

Why couldn't it have been Griffin? I love the Nets, but I hate Griffin even more than Bearded Frank. I root against the Nets only because of Griffin.

Just for you LH

The Pacers need a new coach.

Hire TJ as a player/coach

A la Lenny Wilkens.

Was that the last one in the NBA btw?

According to this list it is Terry Dischinger with the Pistons. Which is weird because I thought Magic was player/coach at times

This Bucks-Nets game is weird. Based on the score, you'd expect awesome defense. But it just looks like two really gassed teams. Why? If either team puts in their scrubs, they'll run circles around the other defense.

Giannis had to give his post-game on-court interview sitting down.

Both teams sucked tonight.

Jazz/Clippers game is on

Clippers are weak at closing out games. Utah up 2-0

Hard to see the Clippers beating the Jazz 4 out of 5.

On a different note, I'm happy for the Jazz. I used to hate on the Jazz, but everything has changed. They're an anti-racist organization partially owned by D Wade, in a beer guzzling, diverse city who loves the team. Every TV broadcast owes them more than showing a lingering shot of that scary white building as they fade into a commercial break during games.

I used to love the Jazz...especially when the Lakers used to beat them like a drum.

Did you like or dislike having Karl Malone on the Lakers?

He was on the Lakers? Oh you mean the facsimile of himself that wore the Laker uniform.

It was only 1 season and the Pistons whipped the Lakers so meh.

I refuse to remember that the Utah Rapist was ever on the Lakers.

enfuego must be so proud

The 76ers were pathetic tonight! What an embarrassment to the league. Clippers destroying the Jazz so far tonight

Plus he missed a potential game winning layup to boot.

Nice Choke job Phili

Whatever this “Hungarian quant shadow GM” thing is has really seemed to blow up in the Mav’s face.

Pretty interesting that there was one report about Luka maybe not being happy with the front office and all of a sudden a bunch of people are looking for new jobs.

Very Magic-esque.

How can teams make trades while the season is still going on?

Just a guess, but I wonder if the dates and deadlines got moved around due to Covid.

I finally caught the replay. I mean this literally: Philadelphia wins that game and is a better team if you swap out Simmons for TJ and just pocket the salary difference. I'm serious.

Can someone please explain to me how Ben Simmons is a 3 time all star?

On to game 7 for 76ers/Hawks

He does all these things that no one can apparently quantify … or adequately illustrate.

He does play defense, I’ll give him that. But Philly is the wrong place for some kind of specialist to be paid all that money. You better fucking score or that crowd will start throwing 9-volt batteries at you.

Guards kind of need to be able shoot in today's NBA

Peace out Utah

Peace out Nets

Nets and the Clippers are jinxed.

Harden is still a loser

Bucks are not very good. Nets choked

Im pretty sure I remember Simmons being all offense no defence in college. What changed?

I'm so glad the nets lost.

Super team, Schmooper team.

Win a championship the right way ya putzs!

Now the Clips need to go.

He is not the only scoring option on a poopy team in a crummy conference anymore, and is no longer, by far the most talented player on the floor.

Who's this ginger playing better than Trae Young for the Hawks?

Game 7 and Ben Simmons has 4 points on 4 shots.

All Star...
