I wouldn't be surprised to see them make a push for the playoffs, honestly. next season

They need a PG who can shoot. Problem is I don't know if they could get anything valuable for Rubio.

They're much better with Rubio on the floor, so I think he's a long term piece there. What they need is a legitimate bench and experience.

Warriors', gas tank must be low.

Looks like they'll tie the Bulls. -- Then they've got the Playoffs.

I'm gonna write it here, too, maybe we should've traded Dallas pick for Muhammad, 35 pts on 12 shots vs the Warriors... We could've used that guy.. and Wolves are not playing him much.

edit: Also the Raptors seem like they are slowing down, month and a half ago, they seemed like a really good team, that plays great together, now not so much.

Celtics kicked the tires on Muhammad prior to the trade deadline. Ainge probably gave a lowball offer that Wolves just ignored. Not sure how much it would take but Bazz would look good in green despite his flaws (defense, passing) as Brad's new project.

Lowry's hurting. That elbow might be affecting his game recently. I hear they're getting DMC back soon. That could go both ways.

No way Warriors get the record now if they have to sweep Memphis and San Antonio to finish the year.

2nd night of a back-to-back at San Antonio is going to be tough if Pop decides not to rest guys. Matching the Bulls record would still be quite an accomplishment.

Wiggins mannnn... I don't get why the people hate on him so much. He just turned 21 lol. Once he's get a little nastier & learns how to lock up, he's gonna be a stud. Regardless he's already good.

Been shooting 43% from 3 since the break too.

If they can add a good stretch 4 in the draft (Bender) they're gonna be crazyyyy in 2018.

Even if not, they can go the Marv Williams, Ryan Anderson, Ilyasova, Teletovic type route? Marv Will would be really nice there.

Gross!! I thought you were kidding. Had to look it up to see if it was true. Kind of wish I hadn't. Now I can't get the nasty image out of my head.

Wait? What? BC isn't getting the job right? I mean I know it's possible but it hasn't happened right?

Not sure I could spend money on tickets knowing I'm supporting a BC franchise.
