Not sure what's more insane. The 30-0 run, or scoring 30 points in 6:00.

Apparently that run by Dallas is the longest scoring streak since 1996 (not quite sure the point of that notation, perhaps when it was officially tracked?) as the previous record was in 2009 against the Bucks so happy to have OKC take that mantle.

Classic Jason Kidd as your head coach experience. Fall down 24 at home to a team your should beat, use “energy and effort” to go on a 30-0 run and take the lead, end up still losing that game.

Horst is looking for a young PJ that's why there's rumours of Okeke

If I thought Griffin knew what to do with them, I would agree to trade Portis to Warriors for Looney and Payton II. Payton's injury report is that he won't be out all season.

Loss of instant offense in Portis and great rebounder, but Looney will make up for the rebounding and be a big help on defense, as will Payton.

At the same time they get 3 days of rest for tonights game and 2 days of rest for the semifinals while we are getting 2 days of rest for the Knicks(who are fully rested) and 1 day of rest for the semis. Great schedule again NBA..

Kinicks/Bucks and Lakers/Suns are bigger games from a TV standpoint. That's why they are both scheduled when there is no MNF. It's the NBA maximizing revenue/eyeballs for its media partners. From a business standpoint, it makes sense why they scheduled them this way.

Haliburton still sick and is questionable tonight. It would suck if he can't go.

Meanwhile the league wants everyone to take the tournament seriously and then assigns Tony Brothers as the crew chief for the Pels/Kings game tonight.

I'm sure it was addressed at some point on here but Ime Udoka managed to have a bitchfest with Lebron and come out looking the worst of the two. Impressive.

At the end of the year we should really try to not get the Pacers or Heat in round. 1.

LeBron was mad that Udoka was using the b word. Not sure if he was call LeBron a b or someone else on the Lakers.

Are guys like Robinson and Hauser just a lot better than AJ Green or can we just not figure out how to play three point snipers with questionable D?

Post #1617 » by **paulpressey25** » Tue Dec 5, 2023 1:52 am

Hoping Indiana can pull this out. Super intense game.

Haliburton heating up.

Post #1618 » by **MickeyDavis** » Tue Dec 5, 2023 1:55 am

Fun game so far. Refs definitely got the memo from the league that they want Boston advancing.

That Tatum spin and put his arms into the defender as he goes up is a pretty lame play. I don’t like that whistle.

Pacers going ham!
