It's 5am for me atm, why Is the Mavs game starting so early? Don't normally start this early.

American holday (Martin Luther King Day), so this Monday, the NBA always does a bunch of daytime games on this last day of the 3-day weekend.

Ahh makes sense

Enjoy wrecking us today for your revenge game today, Celtics fans!
No Kuminga, Podz, Draymond, and Curry is questionable after tweaking an ankle while also dealing with a thumb injury.

Can the Celtics win by more than 20? Seems like a great possibility!

Game 2 of the Clippers 4 in 5, two back to backs this week. So annoying.

And dang, Josh Green could've put a nail in against his old team

Sort of stumbled across the finish line but good Hornets win.

Melo is well engaged in the game. Competitive. First time watching a bit of Hornets ball.

Same thing.i thought, I feel as if he would've shot it initially, he would have drained it.

Time for Memphis-Minny!

Hoping for a Minny win, with that and a Clips win, LA would be 1.5 back of third

Those clownish Mavs fans who tried to claim this team would be better without Luka looking really silly right now. Just wasted the best game of Daniel Gafford's career

Can someone explain to me why Memphis has red jerseys?

Also when the hell did Minnesota get blue jerseys?

Melo is nowhere near as bad as this place thinks. He has been trying on defense and generally gets teammates involved when not surrounded by utter garbage.

I don’t think Minnesota is actually playing defense. This is embarrassing

Bad loss for Dallas. With Minny, OKC, and Boston coming up this is the game they need to get. Wasted a great game from Gafford

Who wins?
