don’t want to make a thread for this, but to those who have seen Donicic play a size able amount of games, would an apt player comparison be a 6’10 ginobili playing style wise???

if Pistons win today then Raptors will only be one game in the L column behind the Celtics. Hope Pistons can blow them out today. Also will be cheering for the Pelicans and Hawks. :)

Late to the game on this but those Ginobili three's were things of beauty. Nice to see Parker looking healthy too.

The Pistons are finally coming back down to earth, at least they lasted longer than Orlando though.

a Road trip against 4 current playoff teams then back home to face the world Champs..that losing streak can be understandable.

Boston again today, IMO, this is the make or break game, to see how serious of a 'contender' they are. As some point, Stanley Johnson is going to start making his shots. he has been a disaster the last couple of weeks.

dont know if y'all are keeping track with D12, I watched him dominate a first half like he used in Orlando, yesterday (then Cha went perimeter)...with all of his experience, having been in the NBA Finals:
Kyle
DD
OG
Ibaka
D12
without somehow giving Jak, Yak, FVV, Normanok he cant be traded, CJ...could take us to the FInals if we actually use him..D12 orlando version is one the last player to stop the King from getting to the Finals..just saying

Chicago will have a short rebuild.

Well players thought Dunn would be rookie of the year last year. He's going to be good, just in a bad fit in Minnesota. Maybe he was nervous because he should've loved playing under a defensive coach like Thibs. I guess you have to give something good to get an all-star like Butler. It's not like Minny is doing bad but Chicago will be pretty good soon - especially with Markannen on that team.
Ska needs to make a comeback.

why y'all mad?

boston is good. more specifically, horford and tatum. bigs that can drop clutch 3s are critical pressure releases for the guards. i.e. Draymond, Love, Ibaka, Anderson. All the top teams have em. and to a lesser extent Harris since he now closes out at the 4.
Pretty neat and on the fridge for the real fans:
