Not sure if anyone is watching the chargers raiders game but good christ Justin Herbert just had an amazing drive to tie it to go to OT
It was unbelievable.

Re: Around the NBA (and other Sports) 2021-22, Part 3
My god, how much proof??!! Memphis just smacked the best team in the NBA with a rookie, making a rare start (Ziaire Williams) who is shooting 28% from 3, with a 2nd year player (D Bane) a 3rd year player (Ja) an often injured 4th year player (JJ) and a backup K Anderson starting.
and this was NOT a fluke victory.. they have been killing lately.
Some posters say, "we don't need any more young players"
I already posted on Miami and what they are doing. What we need is a progressive thinking coach/organization who can develop "Young Talent".. get them to play the right way, get them to nurture and grow their abilities (especially since they invested heavily in them, lottery picks) and stop promoting a basketball style from the 1990s

Desmond Bane would've looked real good on the celtics right now.

Sound like McGruder will be waived and the Nuggets will sign DeMarcus Cousins, which is pretty weird imo.
Never mind

I did say I like Reddish's potential. I agree good for the Knicks.
2 things need to go.. my lack of spell check and Joe..

Re: Around the NBA (and other Sports) 2021-22, Part 3
Meanwhile another day, another blowout for Miami, with No Bam or no Butler. another game of starting , Lowery, Max Struss, O Yurtseven, C Martin, and Tucker.
So basically 2 old veteran's with one undrafted player, a late 2nd rd pick and a 2nd rd cast off. Not to mention Gabe Vincent and another undrafted player, Duncan Robinson, they have playing big minutes..
It is coaching and developing and nothing else.
Meanwhile Boston had nothing from their 2 lottery picks and another first rder yesterday.
If you don't think it's coaching philosophy then I don't know what else to say.

While it may only be one game of course the match of against giannis is not easy for a team like golden state they have no defense for that.
