Dolan not satisfied with Knicks improving despite becoming accomplished at throwing player legends out of the once hallowed building so now his best efforts include destroying the NY Rangers. One knee time.

Maybe Budunholzer can go to Portland and Milwaukee hire Terry Stots?

How awesome would it be if Charlotte met Boston in the 7/8 game!?!?!? Hayward and Rozier vs Brad Stevens and their ex team with Kemba!

4/5 Knicks vs Hawks, 2 teams back in the playoffs!
3/6 Bucks vs Heat REMATCH!!!!

These are the 1st round matchups that the NBA should be fixing for the last few games. Bulls need to beat Boston tonight. :nod:

David Griffin enraged at the refs, blaming Zion's injury on how they allow him to get hammered in the paint all season.

Will he get fined?

its annoying considering I would think Toronto is a large market but treated like a small market in free agency. :nonono:

At this point we really should be focused on the up and coming Canadian players and trying to get more than 1 on the Raptors.
Jamal Murray, SGA, Clarke, Dort, Powell, Birch, etc.
I’d be nice if a Canadian would force their way here but the league wouldn’t allow it and the players are probably too polite.


Kelly Olynyk is a FA next year. I'd offer the MLE for 4 years with no raises since he'll be 30.

Not sure if Miami brings him back since they now have Adebayo and Precious Achiuwa.

Olynyk is with rockets, was traded there part of olidipo trade. Has been playing great with rockets. 18.5 points and 8.5 boards, and rockets want to being him back.

Lol and if you watch the replay Zion is climbing the other guy's back and both are grabbing for the rebound when Zion jams his finger. Not sure how he can blame the refs for this injury.

Not unless we offer him a 3-4 year deal lol

Are they willing to pay him like $15 million per year to keep him? He's unrestricted, so I'd think he'd want to win too.

First round matchups of Nets/Celtics, Bucks/Heat is going to be wild. Two of those teams are going to be first round exits.

Despite having LeBron I think the Lakers are in big trouble. Historically champions end up as #1-2 seeds in the playoffs. I could be wrong but I think the last time a low seed won the title was the Rockets in 95.

They actually remind me a lot of the Lakers team with Payton and Malone. That team could never get it going and we all thought they’d be fine come playoff time. Talent got them to the final but then the Pistons made light work of them.

This time around however the west is more stacked so the Lakers will need more than talent to get them back to the final. Even then, they’ll face stiff competition (likely from the Nets).

lmao, the timberwolves are going to win their game against the pistons so that they can increase the changes of losing their pick to the warriors?

That team is cursed
