Pretty sure he was talking to Jaden McDaniels, thought I lip read "Jaden move!".


He yelled at Tyler Ford, the ref.

they gave him a 4/208 deal, but didn't have ANY money for a bench or the 5th starter.

Murray’s shot wasn’t falling but he looked at lot quicker than he has been in a while. Finally getting healthy

If you using this game as an example. Chet should be MVP

Nah felt like that last year. This game is just a regular for SGA. That play where Gordon threw it in the back court and everyone on Denver was ball watching while SGA chased it down and went in for the lay up just shows what separates him for a lot of other stars in the league.

He was not better than Jokic last year. In the regular season and playoffs. Chet was the star of the court this game. SGA was the third best player on the court tonight. The Thunder have a great team. They will get the one seed

Maybe because they are playing OKC but Denver looks terrible. I thought they were a potential dynasty at one point but now they just look awful.

OKC looks phenomenal.

I don't think you can have 4 rotation players that's can't reliably shoot 3s in this NBA. Braun, Gordon, Westbrook and Watson just isn't going to fly.

Stan called it out, the Thunder were playing off of Braun. Not sure what the answer is because there isn’t anyone you can bring in off the bench to replace him either. They need a trade.

Kings letting the Wolves and that offense shoot 47% is insane. Want the kings to win a playoff series but they are missing something

Great win for Minnesota. I liked what I saw from the Kings though.
