At least the Wizards fought hard. They get a cookie. And likely a high draft pick.

And one for us as well. 2nd tier variety.

Tell you what Geneva, I would honestly take the Wizards roster and future going forwards than the likes of treadmill Bulls and esp Sixers (who are saddled with crippling contracts of washed Embiid and Paul George for the next 4 years)

Hope they get Copper Flagg.

Let Donovan and the Cavs enjoy the regular season because we've seen this movie before in 2021.

That season the Jazz and Donovan were the #1 seed in the west and that Jazz team featured guys like Conley, Bojan Bogdanovic, Jordan Clarkson, and Gobert.

What Donovan and Jazz of 2021 found out was the playoffs is not the same as the regular season.

This season the Cavs are shooting very well from 3pt land.

Good luck if that continues until the playoffs.

Embiid hit in the face and didn't play in the 2nd half.

Looks like they're the Bad Luck Sixers this season.

There is a chance he has another season where he's paid over 1mil per game played. That's crazy :crazy:

Last season 47mil salary - 39 games played = 1.2mil per game

The Sixers board is like a funeral home this season. You hate to see it.

Embiid with the broken face and now Jared McCain torn meniscus.

Some of these Teams are really screwed up. Mismanagement runs ramped.

Damn. I like McCain. Hoping every player has good health the rest of the season and speedy recovery to all!

We can only hope because good health the rest of the season is like no snow for the whole winter.

The shooting of OKC and Houston is just horrible today.

A little pressure from a chance to get to the finals of the NBA Cup and both teams are feeling it.

SGA is one of the smoothest players to ever grace the hardwood

Edit:
There's at least 5 players in these Rotations that were either in the Overtime Elite, the G League Ignite and/or played in the G League.

GSW made 18 threes in the first half, scored 74 points, and are down by 7.
