Cut the gay innuendo BS with KAT.

He's been alpha AF.

Pacers pressing so much it's crazy ... They gotta run more ... I'd put Toppin in for Turner if I was Carlisle. Turner's head isn't in it right now.

Not sure if you realize how pathetic it is to use zesty as a euphemism for KAT's perceived sexual orientation



I don’t get where this is coming from. Have people seen Jordyn Woods lol? Or maybe she’s not famous enough

Looks like it. Why would he tell his coach to challenge though??? Unless we missed something, it was clearly off of him.

Do teams have a certain amount of time to challenge a call?

Is it legal for players to crowd the ref so he can’t give the ball to the inbounder?

Knicks defensively have upped the intensity. You wonder why they are able to do this on the road, but not at home.

The Pacers don't challenge unless the assistant gives the OK on the replay.

I wasn't a fan of Bradley playing in Game 2 either, I think it was an overreaction. They should run more Toppin at the 5

I really would love to see Kat in a motion offence.
When will we just change the name of 25 of the 30 teams to the Washington Generals?

Please advise….
