Yep, nobody can stop him.
Scoot Henderson was -56 last night!
I'm still having a hard time wrapping my head around the Bucks absolutely walloping the Celtics. I watched some of the 3rd quarter and 40 point deficit with middle and end of bench players on the court was hard to take. I turned it off. 33 pt gap final score is a little better. Was this a betting thing? Boston is way better than what they displayed.
First, Boston was on their 5th game in 7 days, and coming off a hard fought OT win at home the night before, then traveled to Milwaukee. The Bucks OTOH hadn't played since Monday and had been home the whole time. And have you ever played sports? Sometimes you just don't "have it" and get walloped by a team that is generally your equal. So the Cs came out, the Bucks were kicking their ass, and by halftime Joe had seen enough. Sure, he could have left the starters in on the slim hope they came back, but in a somewhat meaningless regular season game, and considering the vast differences in rest for the 2 teams, he decided to give the bench some run. I don't know why this is so hard for you to understand.Quote:

Jokic is just ridiculous.
That is all.

Anyone hear of the kerfuffle at the Ring of Honor halftime ceremony?
They announce Jerry Krause, everyone boos, then the jumbo tron cuts to his widow crying and shaking, visibly distraught and stays there a minute too long.
Nice.
Ugh, that was horrible. Like, I understand how Krause ended things sucked, but he’s dead and it’s his widow sitting there. Yeesh.
Definitely worrying he's a bust. I keep reminding myself that Ayton, Williams and others are injured...after the OKC game the IG feed for the blazers had the highlight from the game as thybul missing a 3. What's worse is that this draft is dog shit. Chauncey is not impressing me either. Hopefully Jody sells the team to Uncle Phil and we get a decent gm in thereQuote:

Pacers taking a big swing! Trade for Siakim.
I was hoping that would mean a Grant trade for the Blazers but it sounds like they are set on keeping him around. I've been very unimpressed with him so far.Quote:

I don’t know much about him but he must be good, three 1’s! Holy crapQuote:

2 time all star, all NBA, #1 option on the raptors. He can score, but not good form the arc. He used to be a very, very good defender. Now he's just very good. He's kept getting better. Kinda feels like he's at his ceiling now.Quote:

Agreed, especially for a rental. Indi must have felt they needed to do that and this is the last piece of the puzzle.Quote:

Having your favorite team on ESPN is fucking horrible.
You get Stephen A yelling about teams that aren’t in the game (random yelling about getting Donovan to New York), and a complete focus on what the star team isn’t doing, and absolutely zero (no joke, zero coverage) on what the leading team is doing.
Cavs gave the Bucks their lowest scoring half of the season (yes, no Giannis for some stupid reason) and you had to wait until the Sportscenter drop-in commercial to find that out.
Gimme Chuck, Shaq, Ernie and Kenny every time please.
Gimme Brian Scalibrine commentatoring Celtics games. It's awesome.
Scal kills it.
Oh yeah. Even when the Blazers were relevant, you'd be lucky to get a mention on ESPN. The rest of the time was about the Lakers, regardless of how bad they were. ESPN is the worst.Quote:

Rentals aren't really their style, they must think they can get him signed to an extension.Quote:

Strategically, it makes sense. They now have a pretty good big three, a great coach and a solid supporting cast. Overpaying is relative to what your situation is. They obviously feel like they're in their home stretch.

I think it was a good move, especially since Halliburton has clearly taken a big step.
And the Nuggets end the Celtics' streak.
Houston put up a fight last night. And Boston had one of their 3rd quarter slumps.
Embeast with a casual 70 piece.
Embiid praying after walking by Wemby pre.game and seeing how tall he is was hilarious. Then he goes and drops 70 on him (w Wemby having a solid game too). Dude is on another planet right now
Only my wolves could get 60+ out of Towns and lose to the lowly hornets. #1 in the West, and #1 lowest IQ team.
He just missed averaging 2 points a minute for 37 minutes! New franchise record, surpassing the Dipper. I loved the AI era but this is equally fun.

Supposedly looking at hiring Doc, which is hilarious.
Who fires a coach when you’re 30-13??? Is there some big backstory here?
None yet, but maybe? Or maybe Giannis and Dame couldn't stand playing for him?Quote:
