We have a knack for bringing out the absolute best in LeBron and his team no matter how badly they're struggling against everyone else.

It's not like the Cavs played well in the last game against you (only 102.9 ORTG, poor transition D, gave up a lot of open looks), but they didn't have to in order to win comfortably since your shooting was hilariously bad and you missed a bunch of open layups too.

That's our every game though.

Even better, they were down 8, benched, came back. Played 21 minutes and a -16 in a 20 point win.

Unreal.

Reggie Jackson and his legacy continues. Also it doesn't help to have so many jellybeans (maybe except KCP) around him.

Reggie Jackson-KCP-Tobias Harris-Marcus Morris-Andre Drummond Lineup is the worst in the Leauge

Love this Portland/Boston game. Two worst defensive point guards going head to head.

The white mamba tries to sound impartial but he's such an obvious Boston homer.

I've only watched Boston a few times but the eye test matches IT's on/off imo. I don't think it's because of him so much as their bench being good, but they are better with the bench in. At least until the 4th quarter.

His net rating is even negative in the fourth. Still think his ideal role is uber good sixth man.

This week's shaqtin a fool presents the usual suspect Harden, Tobias Harris and.. unfortunately Gigi.

Damn, he shamed me after all the good things I said about him.

Outside of Jokic/boogie/Davis how much separates den/nola/sac? Denver is better, but what does it say about Jokic that he's tthe key piece on the team currently leading that race? And if Malone had started the year with Jokic at center they would probably be closer to the 7th seed than missing the playoffs.

They're all great but I do think Denver's got the best support around their guy. NOLA's never healthy and the Kings are the Kings, plus now Gay's out. Gallo's out now but Chandler/Barton are both probably better than anyone on the Kings. I'm not sure who's healthy right now for the Pels though. Also Gentry to me is clearly the worst coach.
