That was all around wicked. I had zero hopes coming into the start of this game on winning the group thing… nor knew how it worked either.

Blowout from about 4 minutes into the game. Brown was on. Horford had his second stellar game in a row. Might have been bigger than a 27 point margin but I felt that everyone except White and Banton hoisted up some missed 3's without getting in balance before going up. Brown and maybe Tatum also missed reverse layups that more concentration might have guided in. Oh well, great win ... LaVine going 1-9 and Caruso 3-9 definately made it easier.

An alternative perspective:

Pts. + Rebounds + (0.5 x Assists) + Steals + (0.5 x Blocks) - Missed FGs - (0.5 x Missed Free Throws) - Turnovers - (0.5 x Fouls)

+26 Al Horford 28 minutes
+26 Jaylen Brown 35 minutes


+19 Jrue Holiday 33 minutes
+18.5 Derrick White 29 minutes
+17 Jayson Tatum 36 minutes
+12 Payton Pritchard 23 minutes

+8 Sam Hauser 21 minutes
+5 Luke Kornet 19 minutes
+4 Dalano Banton 13 minutes
+0.5 Lamar Stevens 0 minutes

On one hand, kinda bull that the margin is so razor thin for all these teams. On the other hand, I guess that's probably the point of the competition.

nba must fix this next season, they stomped us and lose an easy bid because we stomped a worse team.

I mean we were missing Holiday but yeah the Magic don't scare me but their fans are all of a sudden full of piss and vinegar after their win streak lol

Just a question regarding this tournament ..
I know the championship games doesn’t count towards the regular season but how do the knockout games count towards the regular season if the season has already been scheduled ?

Do we get a home court game if Miami beats the Bucks tonight?

I believe they left out 2 games for every team. Those that advance will play 2 tourney games and a final if needed. Those out will have 2 games scheduled. So, I think every team had only 80 games set so far, and the last 2 added this week.

They left a gap in the 82 game schedule next week that will now be scheduled.
