If this keeps up he's going to join Jokic and Giannis as the next back to back MVP


Offensive metronome is a great term.

Man, it's gotta be so surreal as OKC when you remember the days you struggled just to make the playoffs. A few years later, you can sleep walk your way in there lol.

An hour later than normal start time due to national TV game, and it's a weeknight, and a blowout. I'm not surprised.

Never want to hear it again

When Luka had a.good team, he kicked him out of the PO, last year, Lakers blew out OKC in OKC, didn't see these declarations back then.


Probably because Shai clearly outplayed Luka in that series lol

If not that, then at least cut to live footage of Chuck and Kenny watching the game in the green room for the entire 4th q

This game is proof that if Jokic actually got a fair whistle he would average 30 easily.

I know they're on a back to back, but the Kings are playing like they've quit on Doug Christie. And if they have, I still wouldn't fire him. You just fired Mike Brown a year ago. This effort is pathetic.

Basically every player thinks theyre gonna be on a new team by the TDL. Hard to keep any kind of team cohesion in this environment. They can judge Christie during the rebuild

Hour and a half later and a back to back. I went last night, but was glad to watch this one on TV.
