- we have 8 games today on schedule, some might look good to some, others not as much, let's not waste time & get into it.

- First up we have the Minnesota Timberwolves matching up against the mighty Indiana Pacers, looks like this one could be a good one.

- We have a early one with a matchup of Los Angeles Lakers vs the Orlando Magic, can the lakers avoid another beat down?

- Last one we have on schedule due to start at the same time as the two matchups above is the Toronto Raptors & Washington-
Wizards, classic match up for Ping-pong ball's & playing prospects who you might want to play on your team next year.

- starting a little later than that, is Dallas vs Brooklyn, Mr. Fernandez has got the Brooklyn boys playing tough through most of the
season & as for Dallas they are just looking forward to having enough to play every night.

- Another game we have is 76ers vs Pelicans, both teams crippled by injuries match up to see who will come out on top.

- Next is the Bulls who might have had the most impressive win of the season from the other day will compete against the up & down
Denver Nuggets, can they add another impressive win this time around.

- second to last game we is the defending champs the Boston Celtics taking on the Sacramento Kings, who have had some very nice
games since trading there franchise player, this could be a dark horse game of the night.

- The last game on schedule is the Milwaukee Bucks & the Phoenix Suns, one team is hoping to stay in the playoff breath ( Bucks ) & the
other ( Phoenix ) is hoping not lose grip of the last play-in spot.

Have a great start of the week everyone & enjoy these games how ever you like to.

Let's Go Lakers!

Game of the night Wolves @ Pacers.

Game im most interested is is the Lakers @ Magic though. Always followed Luka, and the Magic are my pet team I've been following, just out of sheer fascination of their offensive struggles.

I'm also interested in the Bulls @ Nuggets game, as the Bulls have really started to figure it out.

Pretty damn good night for games.

AD has been upgraded to questionable and may play tonight.

If he does I'll be optimistic and set the O/U on the number of quarters he plays before he goes down again at 3.5

Timberwolves, Lakers, Nuggets, Celtics, Suns.

How the hell does this not get called!

Mav it up Mavs! Show Nico that he was right! Play with a chip on your shoulder and march towards that play-in!!!

Watching the game live it was very hard tor see what happened there until the replay.

And then it def bounced off JT's foot, but certainly didn't look like an intentional kick to me. So I'm wondering if that's not actually a kicked ball per the rules. Honestly not sure what the rule is because that call isn't very consistent in my experience. Seems like some refs call that only when it's kicked and some refs call it anytime it hits a foot.

Cool play tho imo.

Can that be challenged?, that was a sweet move by Tatum.

He's still listed as questionable on the report but Shams thinks he's going to play tonight

This is so dumb. They are asking for trouble.

AD is not your regular player he can get injured at any moment. In a lost season this literally makes no sense to bring him back.

Pray for Mavs fans.

Haven't watched NBA in like 2 weeks...excited to sink my teeth back in the action.

It's only a sweet move if you actually know what you're doing. Actually looks like Tatum thought White passed it to him and didn't even realize his heel kicked the ball.

Anyways, a kicked ball has to be intentional, or at least look intentional. I don't know how many times I've had to explain this in pickup basketball when someone throws the ball at someone's foot and people are saying kick ball.

People seem to not realize it's not called leg ball or foot ball, but kick, indicating an action, not simply touching.

Anyways, from the rules:
Kicking the ball or striking it with any part of the leg is a violation when it is an intentional act. The ball accidentally striking the foot, the leg or fist is not a violation.

Reaves gets a foul call for people looking at him.

I legit don't understand what LeBron is thinking at the end of quarters. In a sea of nonsense hate about him, this is something he actually deserves significant criticism for. I get that a lot of players want to protect their shooting percentages by not taking heaves, but 1) opportunities for long range heaves don't happen frequently enough to impact your three point percentage over a season, and 2) he'll occasionally take threes during the course of normal action that are also low percentage shots.


He got the ball to the three point line at the end of the 1st a few minutes ago and then gave it up for a shot that came too late. He was going full speed so it couldn't have been a clean pull-up, but it still doesn't make any sense.

Ref blowing their whistles way too much in this Lakers Magic game. Game is gonna go for 90 years.

I’ve had the entire 2nd quarter muted.

Three Valley boys in the Dallas-Brooklyn game is fun to see, representing Taft, Crespi (stupidly hired Fisher as coach but the Barnes Bros are ballers) and Notre Dame being represented.

Orlando can shoot threes all the sudden.
