Wow.


He had what 19 points in the 4th quarter of Monday nights game. How many did he have in the 4th of this one?

Wolves aren’t playing with that same edge that we’re accustomed to seeing.

Donovan Mitchell is a superstar, no question about it. He's having the best season of his career. If you watch him play, you can see his offensive dominance. He can do everything on that side of the ball, he's the best pure offensive player in the league.

A regular season MVP is within reach for Spida.

46 pts on 71% FG% from a Guard is elite.

I mean for the Pacers, this is best case scenario. Without Haliburton we were probably going to be a play in team at best.

If we suck though, we have shot at getting another young star. Siakam will be 32 when Haliburton comes back. So that young star wouldn't get paid until Siakam is 36. Get Mathurin and Jarace a ton of time to figure themselves out that they haven't been given, come back next year with Haliburton + top pick and see if you can get this thing rolling again.

Keyword is "regular season"

I don’t trust him or the Cavs untill they can beat the Knicks in postseason

For me in ideal world Nets and Pacers will get top two picks :D

7-0 Grizzlies run two seconds after I posted. It's hard to keep Cedric Coward down.

Grizz look bad as expected. When are the rockets gonna face a good team lol? These power rankings have them as 4th best team and they haven't won against anyone with a record better than .500.
Damn I love Hip Hop!

Ja Morant is playing with the same body language that Jimmy Butler did when he was intentionally throwing games so Minnesota would trade him.

19. According to the broadcast, its the first time in the play by play era, that a player has had back to back 19 point 4th quarters.

It was sick to watch.

Zion for Ja maybe in the works. It just makes sense.
