Half time of the Celtics game (giving flowers to the Bulls btw they have been terrific) and during half time I am switching over to Hornets at Wiz with Hornets commentary so I can listen to Eric Collins' madness lol

They decide the NT games before the season starts (which is a bit ridiculous if you ask me)

Also the Thunder are not the best team in the NBA, we saw that in the Cup Final when they were waxed by the Bucks.

So Trae Young gets fouled while Hunter is shooting a three which he misses and Hunter gets three free throws? Wtf? Shouldn't Young be shooting 2? Makes zero sense. If that's the rule that's the rule I guess but still doesn't make sense

I missed it. Apparently security was over talking to the fan.

They're now 6-32 from the field. That's an improvement.

I'll never understand how guys keep fouling Wemby on three point shots. Like you have zero chance to block his shot, why even risk it :lol:
