I like the guard depth of Cade, Ivey, Levert & Jenkins.

Silver won't let it happen,lol


Oh.. with how gambling has penetrated deeply in this league, Pistons would be great for the NBA. They even let Pacers in and let them take OKC to 7 games.

Peyton Watson might be a better shooter than Cam Johnson

Love to see the refs repaying some of the bottomless bucket of karma the Bulls have accumulated getting absolutely **** by bad officiating all decade.


Meh, the officiating in the NBA is as bad as its ever been/and seemingly getting worse every year.

Anyhow congrats on the win and another triple dub for my country's Josh Giddey who deserves to be an all star. All the best for the rest of the season for the Bulls, but i still feel desperately sorry for Wizards fans. Alex Sarr missed a couple of clutch free throws down the stretch. They are a much better team than their current record would suggest. Not sold on their coach tbh (although he probably is under instructions by ownership to tank)

I am rooting for The Wiz to win the lotto. Their fans deserve it the most with all they have gone through

I had them as a likely Finals candidate before the season but they are just not there yet, and other teams like Orlando and Detroit seem very much improved and dangerous. Really hard to see how the East will play out, the Knicks are not out of it yet but really real improvements are needed.


Detroit had a 13 win streak in 1990 and 2004. This was our 12th win in a row :D

People being mad about Bronny having a roster spot clearly haven't watched caleb martin.

I don't know about people here, but on social media and elsewhere I see Bucks fans turning on Myles Turner already.

That didn't take long. I figured it would happen eventually. He has useful tools, but as a whole it can be underwhelming. Just being a C that doesn't rebound already has a portion of any fanbase against him.

18 games for the Mavs. 12 home games, 5 roadies and 1 neutral. For godsakes, send these guys on the road. It will probably do them some good, emotionally.

I was going to say how could wilt not have done this but embiid's 71 took wilts 76ers record away. Seems crazy only one person has this distinction now.
