How does anyone like this guy? He acts like he did it by himself when AD leads the Lakers in 13/14 categories other than assists.

#1 seed is meaningless this year. So with "home court" you get extra crowd noise and CGI logos laid over the court. Big deal.

Hmmm, bad luck for the Grizz that Zion digged deep to play well for half a games worth of minutes and pull out a close one.

Zion is tough to stop if he would get in shape.

But now with just 1.5 game lead on the 8th seed the Grizz have made things interesting. Still very unlikely they blow that lead with what 6 games to go but still... it's not crazy now.

You sure about that?

You get a gander at their remaining schedule? Utah, OKC, Tor, us, Milwaukee. Tell me there's no possibility a young team like that couldn't lose all 5 games.

A healthy POR team that was in the WCF last year has: Hou, Den, LAC, Philly, Dal, and what used to be the Nets. Definitely some winnable games for a committed Dame and the boys.

SA has: Den, Utah, NOLA, Hou, and NOLA one more time.

What you see as unlikely, I see as inevitable.

They both have tough games but the Grizzs have a 2 game lead with only 5 games to go.

Still seems unlikely. But here's hoping they lose all their games and at least are knocked down to the 9th seed. I don't like seeing SA have the Pelicans so many times, that means they'll eat into each other. Bit of a pain. I would rather replace those games with Wizards and Nets for them haha.

I hate how petulant Giannis is. Honestly, why is he so apparently liked by non Bucks fans? Hopefully if we play them we can get in his head, it does seem a bit easy. Step up the wind up merchant Enes...

NBA might not have thought this virtual fan wall through lol.

Unless Voldemort **** them up like he did us, Brooklyn over the next few years are a slight worry if they play like this with someone of KDs calibre coming back, injury history or not

Bucks are only 11-10 (52.38%) when their opponent makes at least 16 threes. [43-3 (93.48%) otherwise.] They're about to be .500 if Nets pull off the upset here. Celtics lone win against them was when they made 17 threes. We have the guys who can take and make threes too. Could beating the Bucks be as simple as taking/making the shots they're allowing? At least your chances are enhanced that way.

Aside: Team broadcasts are just embarrassing themselves trying to identify the players on the floor without their last names on their jerseys lol. Bucks broadcast just said Daniel Theis made a seal inside. He is NOT a Nets player. Kings broadcast also mistook Trey Burke for Courtney Lee, who is injured. Or this could just be their tribute to Marv Albert.

Their team-oriented movement-heavy hard-nosed style of play without KD/Kyrie will disappear with those iso-heavy guys. Already saw it with Kyrie a bit whenever he wasn't injured. Even the Warriors had to adjust their style of play to accommodate KD's penchant to iso. As talented as they are, I don't think they're the type who establish the right culture in a team. In the case of Kyrie, it's even the opposite.

History wont be kind to Lebron.

Not when a guy like Giannis is about to ascend and be basically the same guy.

lol wut

Giannis is the star with the most class in the league by a huge margin.

You’re kidding me

Pacers up 43-20 on Orlando in the 1st quarter. They're just flat out better than the Sixers in my opinion.

Possibly Celtics get 14th pick?

Huge news.

Was just about to post this. You can remove all doubt now. They are dropping out. I expect them to lose all 5 games now. They could maybe slip from that 9th spot. That's now a possibility. Either way this is great for our pick.

Tough break for the kid. He's a good player and a good kid. Hope his rehab goes well and we see him next year. But for now, i'll take it.

The sarcasm is strong in this one. Oh wait, aren’t you one of his arse kissers from memory?

Remind me, which part of ‘I’ll punch him in the dick’ screamed class to you? Granted if you’re American chap, we probably have slightly different views on what class constitutes, admittedly..
