Clippers up 19 over Lakers. Kawhi working his way back. Norm and Harden playing well. Lebron's defensive effort is awful

Hachimura and Gabe Vincent for Ayton, who says no?

Utah starting Kessler, George, Collier, Williams, and SVI tonight. Yes, former Raps legend Svi!

Ainge has to be pissed they are up by 20 only 8 minutes into the game...lol

The NBA is so shady lol. They’re letting Utah blatantly tank by allowing them to “rest” players while the Raptors were questioned about a guy returning from injury.

What a terrible trade that would be for the Lakers, who already struggle with spacing and defense...

Jokic 27-13-10-4-1 thru 3Q.

Crazy

Feels like the Sixers could have used a good coach this year. One who understands defense and doesn't get blasted by 140 points in games. They don't look ready most nights. Real amateur hour over there. Players not playing for each other. They've got MVP/stars and are ready for a contending run. Yeah, you have injuries, but that's why you invest in an experienced, proven coach to get the most out of your roster.

Hopefully Darryl prioritizes that next season.

What’s going on with Edey? Hasn’t scored more than 10 points in nearly a month. Averaging 6/5 in that span.

He's taken more than 7 FGA in a game only once since then, and scored 9 that game. He's averaging 4.5 FGA/g and 17.8 mpg over the past 10 games.

Getting ready for the Edey/Smart for Yak/Davion trade

Ware should be a raptor man all because of a tie breaker

He’s going to get that fourth MVP, right? Giannis and SGA are having incredible seasons, but even so Jokic is clearly a level above.

Feels like voter fatigue is the only unknown here. But everyone loves Jokic. The Embiid hot minute was partly fatigue, partly long-standing “what do you want from your big man” debate, and partly pity for Embiid (how things have changed lol)….but I don’t see that happening for Giannis/SGA…..

SGA makes such a significant impact and OKC is the best team in the league right now. But no player makes more of an impact than Jokic. He’s the best player in the world. He should be the MVP.

I really hope they don't rob him. This is a WILD-ass season from Jokic.
