That's just wrong of Pop to deny folks the chance to see, uh, um...
Comments to rationalize bad contracts -
1) It's less than the MLE
2) He can be traded later
3) It's only __% of the cap
4) The cap is going up
5) It's only __ years
6) He's a good mentor/locker room guy

Spurs backups now up 28-11 on Miami’s starters.

Miami will come back of course, but it’s an impressive opening Qtr where they shot 67%.

Cleveland really needs to get its guard depth back. They are insufferably bad on offense without them.

Garland, Sexton, Rubio, Rondo and LeVert are all injured and/or out for the season.

They had depth, the problem is all of their depth got injured too and now they are starting G-Leaguers

Assuming the bucks don't blow this, how many games until they are locked into the playoff game. They should be 4.5 back with 21 games left after tonight. Three more losses might do it.

Refs really love the Heat. And Lowry is such a flopper

Dragic already trying harder than he did in his whole Raptors tenure.

Yet another guy who signs with the Nets and suddenly doesn't look washed anymore.

Nash's rotations are just awful. He should have one of Irving or Cam Thomas on the court at all times

This is like the 3rd time this month that the Raptors are getting blown out by 30 points. And they're not getting blown out by world beaters either.

Lonzo and Curuso absence is really evident. Mem guards just walking into the paint and not meeting much resistance
