Where's the love for Joe?

Who would've thought the Green Kornet would help offset the damage done by the Wagner group.

I agree, but I think the 2:30 start time has a small effect on the players.

Why NBA Gametime always feels like local cable?
One day Leon Powe and I were cracking up on Eddie House’s tattoo.…[Garnett] was like, ‘C’mon, Scal, it’s time to rock! What the ‘F’ are you doing?’ And I was like, ‘You know what? You’re right. It is time to rock.’ – Brian Scalabrine

Yeah he can't switch. When he's in there, we can only switch 1-4.
Nothing wrong with having a different opinion - as long as it's done respectfully. It'd be lame if we all agreed on everything :)

What is up with these Refs?
They are Trained in the G league, before they get up here.

SEND. THEM. BACK.
They need to be Re-trained.

And he doesn’t close out on shooters. His teammates need to be more aware of that fact lol.

Tatum having no answer for athletic wing players 2 years after the finals is scary.

Kornet's mere presence causes shooters to despair and miss their shots. We've been over this.

If I can stay up 330AM to watch them play, they can show up with their A-game at 230PM. :P

I think they're just trying to control the chirping from the players.

JB wanted a foul called, but he clearly had nowhere to go.
He just needed to pass the ball back out.

Another one of those bad reads from JB.

Another Orlando game at 3pm EST in a few weeks.

The refs seriously ruin about 40% of the games. About 70% of the calls would be different if you changed the players involved.

It's just atrocious. Silver should focus more on the refs than his pathetic gimmicks.

Looks like Magic coaches studied the KP-JB highlight tapes. They’ve guarded that action fairly well so far. Too bad they didn’t scout Luke.

He has his limitations that would be exploited in the playoffs, but the guy is big and knows how to play.
