Cheked the Raptors Mavs score and it was 88-58 Mavs, checked back to see what the final score was and saw it was 104-99 Raptors with 2 minutes to go lol.

Is that NYK all-decade team even as good as the Melo era Nuggets?

Chandler/KP/Amare vs. Camby/Nene/K-Mart?
I'll go with the Knicks, but not by much. More flash and scoring, but much less toughness.

Melo vs. Melo

Smith/Afflalo vs. Smith/lolz

Miller/Iverson/some Billups vs. Felton/Lin/some Billups.

And the Nuggets lost in the first round basically every year.

Up 30 with 2:00 remaining in the 3rd. Only excuse to blow that lead is if your name is the Washington Generals. WTF.

Or if you're playing against a champion.

AD continues to get calls that Giannis can only dream of.

I get that its hyperbole but I'm pretty sure Green has only made 58 3s this year going into tonight.

To answer your question though he'd probably be our 9th-10th man in our rotation

Danny Green would be great on the Bucks but Wes gives us much of the same for a lot less.

The Lakers were 24-3 a few days ago, if they lose to the Clippers on Christmas that will be 4 losses in a row.

Or a team missing it’s primary ball handler is subjected to the full court press lol

Yeah, but they won't. And of these 3, one was without AD, one without LeBron, and one was against us. They're fine.

Can't believe the Lakers still had AD in the game down 20 and after he did something to his leg. Clearly a franchise that does not care about his health.

Jez is going to well actually me later but still he shouldn't be in down 20 in the fourth.

I know it is stating the obvious, but wow do the Lakers look so much worse on paper without LeBron. Even with AD, that roster is trash without LeBron to run the show and make it all work offensively. Rondo is the only other guy on the entire roster that can make anything happen off the dribble, and he's always been overrated offensively.

It will be interesting to see if old man LeBron can carry such a heavy load all season and through the playoffs.

AD should fulfill his destiny and be apart of the new dynasty in Milwaukee

Just watching the last quarter in Toronto. Raptors were great but what a show of extreme mental midgetry by the Mavs.
Up 30 late in the 3rd and they lose by 3 LOL

If we're going to compare the injury report in this game:

Gasol?
Siakam?
Powell?
Thomas?

I think you’re missing the point. Nurse did a hell of a job pulling out the press on a team full of players that isn’t used to having the ball. Luka has Harden esque numbers as far as ball dominance this season and it really showed yesterday when nobody on the Mavs had any clue what to do once the pressure was turned up a notch. It’s a move you see quite a bit in the NCAA tournament when scrub teams take on the big dogs. I’m sure Carlisle is having a field day with that tape from yesterday. Nurse is one hell of a coach.

Fair enough, but Brunson and Curry have been moving the ball well for them, from what I gather.
