Happy March y’all. Less than a week til the All-Star Break. Let’s get it.

[Apz]

Cmon mavs!

I'd celebrate if we had Vucevic instead of kp... We'd be at least 5th now.

[Apz]

no we wouldnt. would still have had all players out with corona

[RB34]

Imagine being 7ft and staying behind the 3pt line.

Kp didn't have corona to start the season, he was rehabbing his 27th knee surgery.

[Apz]

2nd actually, but it was closer then your normal takes. And was kinda my point, maybe we would have had a win more but problem was the covid period

[Muha_i_samolet]

Look at him chuck! 1-7! I'm gonna get the most expensive bottle of booze the day he medically retires

[Apz]

Powell, i **** hate him almost as much as i hated barnes vefore he was traded. Now he not obly got butterfingers, he cant pick up a ball from the ground in 5 seconds

I’m convinced the bottom 60 or so NBA players are very very easily replaceable. Pacers vs Sixers bench was awful to watch.
Having a smaller talent pool to pick from (height) there’s always going to be large disparity coupled with the fact of lack of playing time to develop. But I’m certain there’s 30+ players that don’t have the skills/iq required at all. Basic mistakes repeatedly.
It’s even more noticeable than other sports because there’s only 5 out there so you know very very quickly who is a spud. Hopefully there’s more mature NBA ready guys that come through the outside divs in the coming years.

Doncic going out of his way to not grab rebounds once again... Not sure I like it. Just take them when they fall to you.

So funny that some people are calling him a stat padder.

Its the 60 rookies spots each year. Im kinda surprised not more teams dont ditch rookies. I kinda wish that pkayers had to do atleast 3 years at college before be allowed into the draft, would be a lot eaduer fir the players and a lot better players coming into the league

Embiid finding the correct open shooters tonight. I always imagine if Embiid were able to play with elite 3 point shooters. It would be game over for the NBA. Too bad Houston wanted too much for harden. I don’t think you dare double Embiid with harden in the perimeter open.

Would love Brunson on the Celtics.

Would love Brunson on the Celtics.

Ok you give us Smart

Can we settle on Teague? I’ll even chuck in Semi Ojeleye.

[mademan]

So Porzingis hasnt yet gotten the idea that he just might be cold? Maybe stop jacking 3's

[Apz]

This game kp shoots too much. Is it RC that didnt lkke the last game or whats different? Thought KP was great in the nets game this game they just feeds him at the 3p line
