Winners:
Bulls (2 game losing streak ends here)
Celtics (Nba's best defense will surely slow down Ja, right?)
Heat (Spo doesn't let his team lose b2b)
Raptors (way more talent than the pistons)
Warriors (2 game losing streak ends here, Warriors try to clean up after the ugly loss to the Mavs a few nights ago)
Spurs ( Kangz gonna Kang, Pop ties Nelly in wins tonight)
Clippers (Clippers are the better coached team)

No Jaylen vs Memphis tonight. Rolled his ankle in the last game. It gets tricky for the Celtics to put a ton of points on the board when either Jay is out so they'll have to lock down extra hard defensively.

Boston has no Brown, so they need a big game from Smart/White.

White in and Brown out makes the Celtics defense incredible. Brown is a very good defender, but he is the lowest rated if their starting 5. Incredible defense they have in Boston.

I want to say can we stop with all the Lakers national TV games. But Im not going to lie, them falling apart on national TV has been amusing to watch over the last week or so.

It’s annoying. Put more Griz on. Also? Put more Minnesota on .

Watching my team get a win - my greatest pleasure
Watching the Lakers implode - my second greatest pleasure! :lol:

Was tonight's Nets-Heat game the one that revised from a national TV game to league pass a couple weeks ago? I can't remember. That seems like a huge error if so. KD Return vs. best team in the east. Seems like that's the game to watch.

Celtics Grizzlies should be awesome. Grizzlies lead the league in shots at the rim, Celtics allow the least amount of shots at the rim in the league. Ja/Tatum is fun too, both players are rolling. These are basically Tatum’s numbers since December 1st.

Dieng is just a statue at this point.

Kenny is right because for the Nets to get the 6th seed they would need to go 15-4 with two of three Boston, Cleveland, and Toronto going roughly .500

Dang, Lowry is out for personal reasons again. Seems whatever the issue was isn't quite dealt with yet.

Who wins?
