Just because any time I hear about Avery Bradley, I think of this gem.

JR Smith

Let’s reset the score to zero and whoever wins the rest third quarter, wins the game. End this debacle.

This Raptors defense is hard enough to score on for a good offensive team. Shutdown this Orlando team for 11 points. Thought they were gonna hold them to single digits for some time there

This feels like a game OKC is going to let slip... So many chances to take this lead to 20+

E: Nvm. Make me look stupid Thunder. 10-0 run.

AD seems to be blowing hot and cold in the bubble so far. Torched the Clippers for 34 points in the opener, then laid a dud against the Raptors. Embarrassed a DPOY candidate in Gobert last game for 40 points, but only has 9 points in this game so far. Is he and LeBron just taking it easy or something? Lakers don't have anything to play for anymore anyway.

It’s going to be so difficult to win with Kuzma as your third option offensively.

OKC might actually move up to 4th. Definitely could see 5th with the way Utah is playing.
