Shaq has always been someone who comes across as having a low IQ.

I don't think that, more like he's lazy and doesn't do homework like most broadcasters. Also hard to make out what he's saying with husky voice and poor enunciation. But not dumb.
There goes my hero. Watch him as he goes.

The NBA is a lazy game. Most teams don’t run plays, it’s all penetrate and pitch.

Giannis could’ve scored more, but he was resting for half of the second quarter. That’s on Doc and his poor rotations.

RIP Junior Bridgeman. Great swing man for the early 80s Bucks a forgotten great team. I recall watching Junior play in one of the best college games ever , with Louisville losing to UCLA in the 1975 semifinal game.

This sounds a lot better than what I usually get to read about the Knicks.

I do but the ratings haven't been near what WNBA games average.

I guess the key to winning a title in today's NBA is jacking up 30 3PA a quarter like the Celtics.

How are my Knicks homies feeling about this season? Seems you are getting bang up at the wrong time? Hopefully you can get healthy quickly for a good playoff run.

Any preference for matchup in the 3-6?

Teams should get fined for deliberately tanking. What Philly is doing is criminal.

Thanks for the warm welcome. I got notified because I got quoted like 6 times in this thread.

I take it you are not excited about the post season then?

They’re using Tatum as bait to draw double teams and kick it out for open 3s. We used to do the same thing with Randle..
