Yep. Long gone are the days of prime Marv + Steve Kerr + Doug Collins.


I find former coaches/front office better color commentators than former players.

A point guard passing mind blowing!?!

Do you prefer Van Gundy and Jackson over Reggie and Webber? I personally like Hubie over all of them.

How is that a tech on Harden not on Ingles for kicking the ball at him and keep yapping?

if he got 5 points, thats like 5 shots

8 assists mean he is more likely to pass than shoot

therefore

only send 2 defenders, not 3!!!!!!

oh yeah I forgot 3 steals and 4 blocks came when he was playing offense :crazy:
...and god forbid a point guard passes the ball :crazy:

I pretty much prefer anyone over Reggie and Webber. Im actually looking forward to Doc getting fired because I thought he was really good as a broadcaster.

what?

we arent knocking lonzo bro

we are saying why did the sixers sink 3 defenders on him when its obvious he is looking to pass the ball once the defense breaks down--- especially since he is a pass-first player


relax, your boy got the win!

First time watching Mitchell close, and kid looks like he’s been in the league for 5 years and who also believe in himself being a Top 20 player.

Impressed.

Lonzo had a phenomenal game tonight.

10 Points
8 Rebounds
8 Assists
4 Blocks
3 Steals
0 Turnovers

That is a stellar line.

Gosh - so I stopped watching the Thunder game to watch Utah/Houston, but wow it looks like Melo is shooting awful. Also, Phoenix and Washington very close.
