Are they bad? I typically only listen to the opposing team announcers if we don't have EJ.

You got their stream too? One of those idiots was crying about Booker getting a foul when he got hit in the face and in his partner even told him “No looks like Booker really did get hit in the face” and the idiot continued with “Yeah but did he really get hit that bad?”

Like it’s a foul if you get hit in the face regardless of “how bad” it was.

Good for the Knicks for going for the 2nd seed. They can beat Philly and it's not like they are guaranteed to play them. But you should go for the best seed possible.

Beal has been the Suns best player over the last couple weeks.

I like EJ. Although to me the best combo is Leander/Eddie Johnson.

Yeah, it could be Miami. I think Philly is very tough with Embiid though. I think Nick Nurse is a lot better coach than Thibs too.

I think they may be struggling a little bit integrating Towns too. I wonder if Edwards being sick is impacting him much.


Im not sure I'd favor us in a series but they're the one team I wouldnt be that surprised if we beat. They're great at shutting off the rim but we dont really wanna get to the rim anyway. And they're the one good team whose offense can be pretty underwhelming so our defensive issues are a bit more manageable.

For some reason my league pass always defaults to the other teams' stream. Sometimes I leave it for awhile to hear them. I can't remember if it was Minnesota or OKC or both, but I remember one for sure being super super biased.

I mentioned it in the Beal thread, but I want Beal to be taking more 3s.

I don't hate her as much as most people. But man, it is so boring to listen to them.

Calling it with 6 minutes left, best 4th quarter of the season.

We'd be up 30 if KD wasn't high out there.

Suns defense looks good when the guys are actually focused. Rebounding is what is iffy/iffy.

A playoff series against Minnesota though is going to be physical as hell and will definitely tire them the hell out.
