Boxing, huh? Is that still a sport, anymore?

Yeah it is, it's one where the fighters actually get paid

good one MDB .. these UFC fans need to stay over there, boxing will never go away. Loma is a beast, plain and simple but I give Pedraza credit for losing on his feet which is a lot more than I can say for his last 8 opponents. Loma wasn't as sharp as he's been in past fights, he need to fight Gervonta Davis next .

Lomachenko wants Mikey Garcia next. Hopefully that will be on free TV, I've been loving these Top Rank boxing fights on ESPN. Boxing needs to embrace free TV a lot more, there are a ton of good fighters out there especially in the lightweight, middleweight and welterweight divisions.

I have nothing against MMA aside from their fanbase being a cesspool for dudebros, but it just doesn't interest me like boxing does. Plus even though its really dope when you understand the technical side of it, when fights go to the ground I find it to be boring AF.

[MrDollarBills]

Also because I don't think anyone has mentioned it but Rondae had his best game this season so far. We've given him a ton of ish this season but his last couple of games he has stepped it up. We don't win either without him.

If he can go back to his level that he was playing at last season, it's a big boost (but a hit to our ping pong balls)

Yeah, these last two games he has been really stepping it up on both ends and he's starting to play like 2017-18 Rondae. Last night he knocked down two crisp corner 3's. If he can get that shot going he will be in serious business.

I loved what I saw from Russell, RHJ and Crabbe the last few days.

Russell was 4 for 14. But he controlled the tempo of the game. It's amazing how he has become a very good defender. Disrupting plays when last season your defense at the start of the season was non existent, I'm just loving what I'm seeing there.

11 assists was scoffed at. Dinwiddie had 25/6, but Russell and RHJ had the biggest impact in that game. As for when Frank came in, he's a very good defender too but when Kenny sat Russell I just think their analytics people are set to not play him over 30 when his shot isn't falling. Russell left after facilitating a 10 point lead. We only score 1 basket after that. Risky move, glad we broke that streak. There are problems wit certain players I want to speak about but after winning back to back I'd rather not speak about it.

100% agree with everything especially the second paragraph, those UFC fans go too hard to try to put boxing down, it's like ok bro just enjoy your sport and chill out. I like seeing 2 guys go at it hand to hand, I don't want to see guys breaking their legs and arms and being beat half way to death.

That fight will have to be PPV just because all the revenue it will bring, now that HBO is over with I expect more fights on ESPN and Showtime and regular channel. I think Loma has to fight Gervonta now, Mike Garcia just moved up to 147 to to fight Errol Spence, I think that's a mistake for him because Spence is the best fighter in this sport IMO. Will be a good fight but I think Mikey moved up too much in weight coming from 135 to 147. Loma has to clean out the 135 division then maybe move up to 140. He's already 33 years old I think so he has a few more years. He didn't look as sharp in this fight against Pedraza like he did in prior fights.

[MrDollarBills]

Yeah I think Mikey is going to take an L versus Spence, and i agree right now you can make a case for Errol being P4P.

i TOTALLY forgot HBO is done with boxing after this year. That's really a shame, nothing is better than a good HBO saturday night match. Hopefully we'll see more fights on ESPN. One of the major networks should move in to fill the void, but boxing hasn't been a mainstay on regular network TV since the 80s.

Russell did what he should always be doing when his shot isn't going down: facilitate and play defense. No one even cared that he shot 4/14 because he was racking up assists, making plays on D and kept his TOs down. IMO Russell has posted two solid back to back performances.

And Crabbe is starting to cook, hitting 58% from deep in the last 3 games.

[vincecarter4pres]

Damn I missed a couple good ones the last few days.

I wouldn’t have apologized. Screw that.

All dude had to do was say excuse me could you please sit down, instead of puts his hands on that man's jacket? I don't care how much you paid for those seats keep your hands to yourself.

[MGrand15]

He's lucky that wasn't my boy Jacque Vaughn. Would've knocked him clean out.

Probably asked him like 48 times already.

Yeah, I'm throwing something at him and then getting him thrown out if I'm coach though lol.

Security was right there. He could have signaled to security that his view was being obstructed and security could have relayed it. Clearly, dude has no issue sitting down. Don't tug on a grown man's clothing WTF

These entitled mother **** ers are lucky it's a felony to knock someone's head off.

Great game and awesome to get one on a road on a back to back and ALWAYS great to beat the knicks!

-Great game for dinwiddie. yeah a few bad possesion late but he COOKED the knicks all 4th quarter.

-Where are all the people that wanted Crabbe benched/traded for a slow shooting start? as i said, shooters always come back to their percentages. glad the coaches stay/show confidence in these guys. yeah crabbe is super overpaid and Harris is the better/cheaper option but thats a marks issue not a crabbe issue. crabbe is still a great fit on the floor and he will finish the year 37-40ish % from deep as he always does.

-Rondae looking better. our offense hasnt been as rough with him on the floor so far this month. him hitting corner 3s will certainly help. big 4th quarter stops this and last game. he could be back to form soon

-Allen was better this time around. Kanter still rag dolled him but allen used all his fould and got his 14/12 on the other end.

-Russell has been extremely steady. shot touch shots not falling so he did other things to help us win.

Brooklyn needs some passionate fans like that ones that take action and are rowdy at the game right or wrong.
