Anyone watched the 76er vs Grizzlies game? Great game with playoff atmosphere. It was intense like WCW Nitro expect its real. One of the best non Twolves game of the season and I am glad 76er won.

WCW Nitro!? LOL been 20+ years since that was around haha. Yea it was a great game.

It's really funny and fun to see people going nuts over Beasley and VAndo now. They were never known when they played for us and Utah but now on the Lakers everyone is talking about how amazing Beasley is on social media.

That just shows how much I follow wrestling on TNT :D
Lakers now does look like a team with depth and support cast and will get in the play-in. LeBron now has two JR Smith to work with.

Oh no, Vando got traded to GSW? :D Lakers are legit especially with DLo out of the lineup :D . I like that they can go to low post with Davis or LBJ when offenses aren't moving.

I'm expecting the Lakers to look a lot different without LeBron. I feel like it needs to be said around here, that top talents missing games changes the outlook for a team.

NOP pull a Wolfy tonight. Loss at home to Orlando by turning the ball over, missing 3s, and choke in the 4qtr. Glad it's happening to another team that is fighting for a playoff spot.

Impossible! I was led to believe only Finch/Connelly-led teams could do that!

But we are the best at it. Someone posted Wolves average the 3rd most turnovers per game and the 2nd most fouls.
If you are struggling on offense, at least don't run yourself out of the game or keep giving teams FTs. Wolves play the game like I play Street Fighters - hit the middle punch button as fast as I can then randomly move the joystick. Always make it pass level 3 but never pass level 4. I do press the kick button once a while to mix it up.

Thibs has the knicks humming. They finally figured it out. Brunson has been a massive get.

Watching SAC-LAC game. We might need to thank Kroenke who vetoed Hyland trade to MIN. He has been underperforming.

P.S. SAC are legit: flawed, but so unique team.

If Clakre got this injury last season I bet the wolves would have made it to the second round. He was crucial in like two wins for the Griz,

Pretty rough for Josh...but they keep letting him shoot 3s...
These players are bitching for fouls every play.
I'd rather have a bottle in front of me than a frontal lobotomy.

Rooting for Grizzly's tonight, Clippers got lucky draw with so many players out but Jones is giving Grizzly's the lead in 3rd Qtr.
