He really is the next Steph Curry!

Yes the comparison appears to run deep...

Jokic somehow looks even fatter than last year lol

Is it a concern the Zinger is jacking a lot of threes and not taking it to the hoop as much or just how Dallas’s offence wants him to play?

He looks huge next to Kristaps and Kleiber.

His attitude and effort has been lacking so far as well.

I really like this Memphis team, they are building the right way.

Brandon Clarke is a name to remember, seems like the ultimate glue guy

Was looking at Miami's roster and discovered that 39 year old Udonis Haslem is still employed by the Miami Heat to play basketball.

You could've legitimately convinced me that he retired 5 years ago.

This Mavs box score is crazy, 10 guys played and all but 1 had between 10-14 points. As balanced as it gets

Anthony Davis has a 40/20 game at the end of the 3rd quarter. He's 26/27 from the FT line.

Looking at the the whistle Anthony Davis is getting tonight sitting on 27 free throw attempts thru 3 quarters pisses me off so much more about the whistle Giannis gets. Of course, Giannis would only turn those 27 into 14 points but still.

I only saw third quarter. There were a couple of soft calls but most were pretty blatant hacks on Davis. Was pretty poor D from Memphis.

Jaren Jackson Jr must have one of the highest foul rates ever. Can't stop fouling dudes.

Blatant hacks to AD or Luka=look at them angry
To Gianni=bleedinggg

I don't buy this. There has been plenty of evidence that Ntilikina can be at least a serviceable offensive player. Actually the only evidence he's not is from the Knicks. He's been shooting solid percentages in any competition except the NBA from deep, has a good enough FT%, is a plus passer and a plus handler. The moment he's shooting 35% from 3 he's already a positive player.

Saw this on Reddit...

Vince Carter will play with the Hawks in a game against the Raptors during which they will wear their throw back dino uniforms - which was the normal uniform when Vince played there.

Clarke only works because they already have a perimeter center in JJJ but he works real well with him in theory. Memphis has been pretty fortunate with how the draft (and lottery) shaped out. Getting three very well fitting players in consecutive drafts while drafting BPA is uncommon.
