Where was the foul lol? They showed the replay and i saw nothing worth an offensive foul.

Bev and Pels guy banged knees, but it didnt look malicious imo


Watch closely Bev intentionally ran into Naji, he stopped chasing his man to do so. Lebron walked to the basker with him injured.

Portland may be the worst defensive team in the history of basketball.

Naji was defending Lebron.

He’s chasing a man in the crowd. It’s a long, dramatic story.

Bane is the best out of those second tier young guys like Maxey, Poole and Herro right? Someone tell me I'm not crazy

No clue why Jose only got 7 minutes in the 1st half and Graham got more minutes.

There is a clear chance Portland may get the #1 pick this year. Wembanyama needs to wait a year.

Wake the f*ck up Lebron.. I'm one of the biggest Lebron apologists around but he's been utter shite. He's sapping the team of all the positive energy Russ generated earlier.

No he didn't. We played shite for 12 minutes straight that quarter. Not that it got better when he subbed back in. Regular 3Q woes continue.
