Huge game for Dallas/Minnesota. If Dallas can get what will be a very tough win, they pretty much have locked up a top 6 spot and set up the Sunday battle with Utah for HCA. If Minnesota wins , they keep the pressure on Dallas to avoid sliding back into 7. Dallas still will have a decent lead and they will have the tiebreaker based on conference record, but a win would go a long way. And for the Wolves getting past at least one more team would be huge so they don't have to win 1 of 2 just to get in.

Add to that how physical and chippy the last meeting was and the usual Luka/PatBev stuff, it should be a very compelling game(watch Minny blow Dallas out by 30 lol).

I need Luka to be "Luka Magic" tonight. Worst case scenario would be if Minnesota won.

Jordan Poole entering stardom before our eyes. 25/3/5 on 54/49/89 (4.3 made 3's per game, 2.6 TO's) in the month of March (12 games). Quick 15 on 5/7 (3/4 from 3) in the 1st Quarter so far tonight. It's the best month of March (month period honestly) I've seen from a Warriors 22 year old since Curry's rookie year (not saying he's Curry, but still, it's a massive development for him and GS).

Who really cares about these games? The entire league now that the Suns have clinched is just the losers bracket.

On to the playoffs.

I'm suspecting Luka has a minor injury. He's not moving like he was a few games ago. Roasted Towns on that last play though

RJ's really been coming into his own as a playmaker.

My buddy your father has probably never seen a Suns championship.


Edit: Oh snap, I didn't realize they have never won one, longest running NBA team with no championship. Don't mean to clown but you asked for it. 0-53 :lol: :lol: :lol:

I've never understood why the Hawks don't use Capela and Okongwu together when Collins is hurt. Their main issue is defense and I guarantee you their defense with this lineup would get immensely better.

Who cares about these games? Everyone but Suns' fans.

Splash Cousins... Let's GOOO. 10/14 from 3 between Klay and Poole. Absolutely zero defense tonight though.

Taj at the 4 is rough...but I dunno who we have right now that can play the 4 other than Obi & RJ. So we may just need to survive a few minutes of this double center crap.

He makes some impossible shots

Nobody in the league is defending that better then Towns and its still just hitting net

And some filthy passes. Prince will hear about that one every time they are close on court.

Highly entertaining, playoff-like game between the Jazz and Hornets

Luka's only big performance in the last 4 games was a 35 point effort against the Hornets where the Mavs got blown out by 20, other than that he's been dreadful and he's continuing his poor play here tonight.
