Springer the 2nd guy off the bench tonight for Utah. 7 pts, 1 reb, 2 assists in 11 mins so far.

Wish him luck!
Nothing wrong with having a different opinion - as long as it's done respectfully. It'd be lame if we all agreed on everything :)

I trust the NBA as far as I can throw them, so hopefully this isn't them setting up the Spurs to get Cooper Flagg.

It reminds me of when the Spurs had David Robinson and he was out injured and they ended up with the First Pick and drafted Duncan.


This is 100. Blood clot lol. That young? Jeez. They tanking for sure.

This is a weird one, but it works. Orson Welles, roasting Joe Namath and Johnny Unitas alike, in rhyme.

Cavs look like a team that can win a championship. They have beaten everybody except us. Can’t wait to face them on friday. They acquired De’Andre Hunter as as another scorer. We are 2-1 against them this year but i still feel they’re a dangerous team.

Ant yelled in the refs face and slammed the ball on the floor twice and didn't get T'd up. JT might have gotten kicked out of the league if he did the same

The Sixers are about to lose by 40 against the mighty mighty Bulls. At home.

Edit: Only by 32 after all. A much more respectable beatdown.

Really happy to see Marcus Smart doing well for The Wiz

No surprises he has become a firm favourite amongst DC fans already

Thunder look like the best team in the nba. Can’t wait to face them again. We gotta show we can beat that team.

Sixers went from biggest threat to the Cs to a lottery team.

Looks like this will be another "process". Only this time the process will be on Embiid's knee.

That's the ideal, but it's not a must win.

Last season the Cs also lost to OKC, on the road, even when KP and JT each scored 30 or more.

But nobody remembered that game in June.

I believe this eliminates OKC as a contender, regardless of the outcome of OT.
