The Nets, Pelicans, Hornets, Jazz, and Clippers all played tonight.

And they all lost.

And the Suns won, of course.

Edit, actually the jazz are still alive. Currently in overtime.

No worries... new tank commander coming in!

Lamelo has no shame. He is playing off the bench today for whatever reason and went full chuck mode, 23 shots in 23 minutes. He is making them but they are still losing late in the 4th to Indy.

Good tank night unlike last night. Pacers and Jazz both squeak past opponents with 2 pt victories.

He's going to get the Trae Young treatment soon.

Forget the pacers. They are worst team in league. We needed hornets to win tonight

AI is going to end us all, but at least it's funny.

We could easily go on an extended losing streak about
now. Hopefully SAC will beat us.

Last game they lost by 55 to the Hornets, then they turn around and beat the Cavs.

The Cavs are just in this yearly cycle of high hopes followed by disappointing results.

Pacers!

Utah is good. Has okc number too. They should stop tanking and give their fans a play in gift

I hope Dallas makes the playoffs. Silver about to bend all the way over backwards to give the Mavs another Luka payoff lottery pick.

Sacramento is where we were when we had Beal. Nobody cares about Utah. Those two teams aren't winning anything.

Pacers fans, prepare for disappointment. They had their moment and might been able to add to what they had. Instead, they let Turner go and now blatantly tank.

It's us and Brooklyn for sure winning picks this year. My only concern is we went from an ethical tank to a blatant one, with Trae sitting out. Or at least it appears blatant. Bad karma for the lotto. The good karma last year did nothing for us though so who knows.
