How do you stop a player like Demar? Too tall to block like Durant he’s like 6’10” out there
2019 Eastern Conference All Stars

Derozan
Lowry
Ibaka
Valanciunas
Van Vleet

Lebron
Embiid

There are only 2 teams in the league that rank in the top 6 in offensive and defensive efficiency: the Golden State Warriors and the Toronto Raptors.

Not scared of Milwaukee, or Brooklyn, or the 97 Bulls, or the 87 Lakers, whatever. We are close to a .500 team and can beat anyone.

Oh no! A win against the Bucks on Wednesday will be fake by association now and any loss a sign of team wide scrubbiness.
When will we just change the name of 25 of the 30 teams to the Washington Generals?

Please advise….

At this point I'm not sure who Phil Jackson would go to for a game winner, MJ or Demar, its a toss up.
