Quin Snyder just earned a contract extension from the Hawks. Gobert for Butler trade maybe available this summer.

What? Jimmy Butler? No way in hell Kat and Butler can play on the same team ever again.

Watching the Bulls vs TOR and wondering what if the Butler trade was Wiggins instead of Zack?

With all the talk about Gobert vs Kyle. Did we are missed the Bones Hyland-Mason Plumlee scuffle? It looks just as good/bad. Is anyone getting suspended for that one?

OKC are actually beating the Pelicans in the 3rd. Will be wild if they win.

I love the play-in format and hope it's going to stay. It's been some of the most exciting basketball these two years.

Who cares about weighing sh*t? Ant did not play well, I do think post fall he was out of it, but it will be extra motivation for him to dominate tonight. He's that kind of player.

Whoever loses the Bull vs Heat will go on a fire sale. If we don't want Butler back, maybe Zack coming back? :D

The Butler did it again. We should had gave him the max contract four years ago. Can't believe he is still playing at such high level.

Caruso is a good choice; DeRozan as reliable wing player if possible; not as high on PatBev but depending on who we could get as backup ptg. I would go for Schroder before PatBev.

GSW vs SAC is off to an exciting start. It's got the feel of the old SAC vs LAL series. Wiggins and Curry had a chance to win it but missed. Silver need to put the fix in now :D

Outside of Sac being in the playoffs there's really nothing similar about this series

DLo is playing well. He just set a pick for Reaves. That is new. Ja may had injured his hand. Looks like Lakers may take the series.

Jaren Jackson has taken a big step on offense, Memphis has 2 star players now.

Wheels came flying off the bus for Memphis in the 2nd half, really really poor defense very uncharacteristic for them.
Got burned a lot double teaming and too worried about LeBron and Davis leaving driving seams and open shooters all over the place.
We played them much, much tougher defensively and how well our guards are handling screen action up top is one of the biggest improvements this team has made this year.

Cannot stand the Lakers and Warriors and badly want them to lose.
Memphis is going to have to tighten up their D and Ja is going to have to come back and be a PG and not 1 on 5 Superman or they are going to lose this series because as much as I can't stand the Lakers I have to admit they are playing pretty well as a team right now.

Memphis is a mess but I feel wolves can beat Denver as well. The west top 3 is extremely beatable.
