I would love for Haliburton to develop a low post back to the basket game ala Magic or Mark Jackson. His height would make him an impossible matchup for most pgs down there

Nesmith’s release is textbook like, similar to Klay’s.

Knicks just don’t have the right personnel to deal with the Pacers.
When will we just change the name of 25 of the 30 teams to the Washington Generals?

Please advise….

Brunson is absolutely roughed up every game. They're allowed to body him up and down the court.

Amazing he's such a great player at his size while being manhandled.

Perhaps. Obi does have his problems. He's not the smartest of players. Obi is the reason Pacers needed to trade for Pascal. By bringing him off the bench, Pacers are keeping his role limited. and he's doing ok in those minutes.

Suns, if they didn't have such a moronic owner. He'd probably take him.


Funny thing is if Durant were to push for it hard enough the Suns might do it. They would at least get something for Durant and Towns would be reunited with his UK buddy Booker.

See? Robinson being in the lineup frees OG from Pascal and he's more effective on offense.

KAT fouled and everyone in the entire building knew it, but refs didnt wanna give him 5.

EDIT: maybe not, I’m okay with that no call. Turner needed to play it better.

Come on refs, how on earth is that not a foul. Choose a better play to bail out players

Obi offers a lot of value as a bench player with his style. But only as a bench player. He’s always been a guy I’d love to have on the Cavs.
