Shoot-out in Indianapolis last night, thought it was an OT game when I saw the 147-143 final score...

The player I knew was the surest instant success in the draft. His twin Kris Murray will stealthily be a very good pick-up where he is mocked in the mid 1st.

All of the Cavs games are blacked out and I'd rather stick needles in my eyes than intentionally watch a Wizards game so I was kind of having fun watching Zion Williamson single handedly win games for the Pelicans. Looks like he's never going to have much of an NBA career though. He's a lot like Larry Johnson, although he is a ton more talented than Larry was. Or like Icky Woods, who had like one good year and then injuries pushed him out.
I've been taught all my life to value service to the weak and powerless.

Man, Kayte deserves hazard pay for covering the Kings over the last 15 years.



Ziller has a good article here about all the anxiety and chaos that SAC fans felt during the relocation drama in the midst of the drought.

Those 2 losses against the Wizards (both without KP) and Hornets came back to bite them. They've also been a bit unlucky (or unclutch) in some of their losses including against the Timberwolves, Hawks, and even the last game against the Wizards.

Also think the Brunson/Knicks being better is a bit surprising- I think people thought Brunson was leaving the Mavericks for a worse situation- it turns out at least for this season that the Knicks have been better (and even without Brunson the Knicks are 6-5).

Knicks have backcourt depth, some guys on the wing who defend and a better front court than the Mavs.

The Mavs also can’t hit FTs.

Ironically they also owe the Knicks a 2023 1st rounder from the Porzkngis trade (top 10 protected). But it may not convey with the Mavs being in the lottery.

Towns only had 8 points on 3 shots in the Timberwolves loss to the Blazers where they rested Lillard, Simons, Nurkic, Grant, Winslow, Little, and Reddish.

Kats contract extension kicks in next season- over the next 4 years he'll earn 50m, 54m, 58m, 62m.

I was really feeling down about my Wizards fandom until the train wreck that happened to the T-Pups tonight. A valuable player fracturing his hand by punching a wall, after his team's starting center gets ejected by his own team for swinging at a teammate on game 82 of the season.

They said hold my beer to the Wizards on disfunction.
