Around The League - Bill Walton passes from cancer at 71

Why Hartenstein? Pacers getting lucky with injuries obviously, but they do seem better than a typical 6 seed.

They’re a good team especially after getting Siakim and Haliburton getting healthy.

This whole front runner topic that has become such a big thing in the NBA is so incredibly lame and it makes me sad to see Seth playing into it.

I didn't mind that Donte was traded but at the time I said that was one of the worst trades in Bucks history. At least Horst learned and didn't trade Dairy for PJ Tucker.

Worse than Tobias Harris for JJ Reddick haha

Would Donte have ever become the player he has if he didn't get that chance to work with and learn from Steph? I think he was pretty up front about the impact Steph had on his development.

Bucks and Kings Donte was pretty rough.

Indy moving on due to injuries isn’t optimal as a Bucks fan. That said, I will cheer for them against Boston.

Boston getting knocked out, and forcing another existential roster crisis with the two J’s would make for a good offseason.

[JayMKE]

Honestly think I might root for Boston over Indy, **** those guys

Boston imploding again is about all we have to look forward to.

Bucks and Kings Donte was pretty rough.

Why are people peddling this narrative all of a sudden. The first few yrs w/ the Bucks, Donte was a major x-factor due to his all-around d, rebounding, & passing. He was a mediocre scorer, who'd get worse in the playoffs. But to say he pretty rough for us, until the last year, between the Bucks & Kings, which was impacted by injuries, is just a myth.

[FrieAaron]

Anyone who watched our series on national TV, did they mention Giannis and Dame being out as much as NYs injuries? God damn it's every possession. Feel bad for the average fan but the fellating by the media makes it hard for me to feel too bad. Watching Boston lose to Indy would be hilarious but unfortunately they probably just have byes all the way to the finals.

Gobert trying to create his own offense is a sight to see.

we drafted him which means we believed him him then
he quickly became a competent starter with upside
he got hurt and we bailed

front offices that see a guy up close for YEARS who move on and then he blows up deserve 100% of the **** up credit if they let him move on especially if its for peanuts

[rilamann]

One thing I would never do is bet on a team lead (in part) by Karl Anthony Towns in a big game.

I think you're right, I was prob a bit harsh. I remember him having a lot of promise but some flaws too between the streaky shooting and inability to make a lay-up. I think the rumour was he was after a pretty hefty deal (something like 5/90?) and it being a bit "eh" as to whether it was worth it. Winning the title while he was injured prob cemented Horst's belief he was expendable.

Again, I do wonder if he would've still panned out for us as he has for the Knicks. Knicks version would be awesome for us.

Nesmith having a series against them would be interesting.

Indy can just get annihilated in the Finals.

Ant being doubled pretty much every time he gets the ball. KAT should be feasting.

Minny playing this poorly and only being down 10 is about their only saving grace so far. This could blow out quickly though if they don't figure it out.

[GoldenAntlers]

I really hope this is a competitive half.

[Plossum]

Is there a bigger rocks or diamonds guy in the NBA than Jamal Murray? He's looked like **** Monta Ellis is some games these Playoffs then turns into prime Tony Parker on a dime.

[Plossum]

Ant gonna get torched by the hot-take merchants after this game
