It's amazing how awful Harden looks at times without the refs bailing him out. Don't get me wrong, he can still get hot but so can Westbrook, Eric Gordon, Monta Ellis, Nick Young.....the big difference is Harden basically cheated the system and it's catching up to him...AND I LOVE IT!

Wow, Heat Twitter on one today. Morris's shot means less because because it wasn't called on the court, as if that means anything.

Jokic deserves MVP for the shove. F*ck Morris.

Semi-relevant: **** Jimmy Butler too. You so tough Jimmy, and we all continue to be very very impressed about it.

Yeah I'm with Jokic on this one.

Also I think his brothers could absolutely make orphans of their children

Can't get over how hesitant he is when he's in the midrange.

Maybe all the soft tissue stuff has robbed him of all his bounce?

I don’t even think it is being hesitant. I think it is muscle memory of going into the flop moves. He gets started and realizes he can’t jump into the guy.

Fair call. There's one where if he'd just shot instead of faked Caruso wasn't stopping it.

I just found that one of Jokic's brothers was charged with assaulting a woman while drunk, so definitely wouldn't be f-ing with him and he's a piece of ****. An extremely large POS, but a POS none the less.

Its just a classic goon move by morris. They're down 17 late in the game, no need to do something like that and then acts like a victim when someone pushes back. Him on the ground was one of the most pathetic things ive seen in awhile.

Am I crazy or do a lot of Barkley's takes seem spot on lately?

Morris fined $50,000, Joker suspended for a game

The hawks are 4-8 with most of their core playing every game(okungwu is out). Nate McMillan is not a good coach and some of their pieces might’ve been a little overrated. I still think they’re a good team and will turn it around but maybe they’re feeling themselves a little too much.

The new rules are really hurting Trae and limiting his effectiveness which spreads throughout the team give he's their focal point. I think Atlanta will get better but not sure they'll make the top 4.

I'm always shocked that the Heat have fans.

True, and sad because they have plenty of talent around Young.

This would be a non issue had they drafted Haliburton last year like they should have, instead of the bum they picked.

They could have cashed in Young on some sucker, and still had a winning PG . Instead, they're the sucker paying Young.
