I think they also passed on Demar in the offseason. They ended up with Westbrook. Incompetents I guess

I just read that Lebron, the defacto GM, passed on DeMar because he considers Russ more of an alpha type. What a mistake.

I laughed at the Lakers blowing another lead tonight and LBJ stumbling around on the last possession.

37 points notwithstanding

Celtic board melting down over recent losses. I didn't know till I read there Greg Monroe got 11 points in 25 minutes against them the other night

that team will be back in the lottery for the 3 seasons, they basically let go of all their young talent; its safe to say the LAL doesn't have the value as it is a decade or 2 back...the newer generation of players aren't getting to ready to ditch their teams to join the lakers...that's troubling for a marquee franchise...

Lol scrub Monk had zero trust in Westbrook. Westbrook was as open as you could be for the corner 3 on that last possession right beside him. Westbrook looked pissed.

That was shades of Boucher/Svi.

Whenever I watch a Boston game, I get the feeling that those players genuinely hate each other.

Jaylen Brown wanted it all last night playing one on five.

That Boston box score is...one for the ages. Tatum misses the game and they turn into toilet water. https://www.espn.com/nba/boxscore/_/gameId/401360337

So much for their awesome young core, hu?

How does the NBA decide to postpone a game for the depleted Heat but decide a depleted Raptors team should play?

I'm hearing the NBA is postponing the Warriors vs Nuggets game too? They're not even trying to hide what they're doing anymore. This is starting to look very shady. They literally forced a couple of teams fighting for playoff spots to take intentional losses, and they're allowing other teams to move games. WTF.

Don't want anyone in protocols but it really woulda better if we atleast got Scottie as one of the players available while others were out so we could see him as a first option

Bruno wasn't picked one spot before Jokic though, it isn't as painful as this one.

Could be worse though

Such a bad shot lol. Both Donovan and DeRozan are so lucky that went in.

Heat couldn't get the minimum 8 players, they were in San Antonio and even signed a player from spurs minor league team to reduce travel, but couldn't still get 8 players cleared in time.
