I didn't watch. How the heck could that happen

I didn't watch, either. I just saw it on IG. Shaq/Chuck/Kenny drafted the teams. Shaq took LeBron first. Chuck has Giannis/Jokic/Shai/Wemby.

I see the top 5 for each team. How are the others like Dame dispersed?

There's drafting again? I can't keep up. Last year was east /west right?

They draft three teams. Then the winning teeam from the rising stars challenge form a fourth team. Then there's a four team tourney.

When Giannis turns free agent, offer him the league minimum but pay him supermax under the table..tons of cap space.... nobody will ever know.

Mavericks clearly won the trade

Celtics closed the gap in garbage time but the Mavs whipped them pretty good.

Only difference between last year's Celtics and those 2019 & 2020 Bucks teams, is that we had to run into the 2019 Raptors and a global pandemic, whereas those dudes got the easiest free ride to the Finals I've seen in my lifetime.

I don’t remember the bucks having a regular season stretch this mid (without injuries) like the celtics are having now during their run with Bud

Agree with what you’re saying but in fairness to the Celts they were really good last year and I think realistically only Denver could’ve beaten them. The only shame for them is they never were really tested by some of their biggest rivals due to injuries.

Orlando were nuts for not trading for any shooting. First game after the deadline and they are currently 5/30 from three.

2-10 since Paolo came back (not blaming him but they’ve utterly cratered since welcoming back him and later Franz).

Alot of rumors that the bucks really wanted him offered portis plus picks plus lopez but nets dead set on 3 frps

If a team turns down our trade, it’s always Horts fault. (Deal with it sunglasses)

Man Portland has been on a serious heater lately. Impressive stuff.

I'd be furious if I was a Blazers fan.

Deandre Ayton decided to play hard. Scoot is also giving max effort.

Two supremely talented players deciding to care makes a difference

LeBron is both the youngest and oldest player in NBA history with 40 point games. That kinda breaks my brain a little bit.

It's not like it happened on the same day, though. That'd really do a number on the bean.
