Good games on the docket for sure!

Pacers/Sixers
Mavs/Pelicans
Wolves/Warriors

Are the "big ones" for me.

I am also interested in seeing how that Rockets team plays against Denver.

I'm hopeful. All these young, loaded teams are going to start taking steps towards relevancy eventually, and just being competitive against great teams, will show that

I swear, watching Randle play, is how I imagine chaos, in human form would look like. At any given time, even he doesn't know what he's going to do next.

Completely unpredictable.

The Suns need to get out of this rut and start winning some games. If that means Booker plays through pain, so be it. The time for excuses is over.

Oh... and Vogel is trash.

Brandon Miller was going for 30 if he didn't sprain his ankle.

This kid will be special just waiting on us to hire a good HC.

It's not that they are necessarily favoring the Knicks, LaMelo Ball has had the worst whistle in the league since he was drafted. Its every game for us

If Barrett is a 35%-40% three point shooter, the outlook on the Knicks is much better, and I wouldn't include him in a deal for a Star.

LaMelo Ball is still every bit as good as Tyrese Haliburton and Anthony Edwards but the roster they've put around him is absolutely tragic.

For me the biggest thing is his FT shooting and his finishing in the paint…as long as his three ball stays over 34%. He has left so many points on the court by missing FTs and bunnies in his career previously.

Anyways, another day another Knicks win with RJ in the lineup (5-2 w/ Barrett) and scoring efficiently (24pts on 16FGA).

Nice of his supporting cast to show up today too…Randle with 23 points on 16 FGA, Brunson with 20 on just 12 FGA, and IQ with 17 on 9 FGA.
