We have a guy like Vando who busts his ass but Ham treats him like a bum.

Lakers may actually end up losing this one by less than 20.

To someone watching their first NBA game, how would you explain why Jaylen Brown is the highest-paid player in the game?

Paid every time he throws the ball away or gets it taken from him?

By my math the Celtics are on pace for 900 turnovers in this game

The NBA has a very stupid CBA that results in players salaries being only partially associated with player quality

Any smart person would say he was ALL NBA 2nd team last season and was the first to be able to take advantage of the new extensions. In 2 years there will be 15 contracts bigger than his.

He’s also got 6 points, 6 rebounds and 1 assist in 10 mins.

Vanderbilt may be the best in the league at hustle plays

Man, imagine AD and Lebron on this Laker team…

9 turnovers already for the Celtics and 5 threes for the Lakers. I’m in the twilight zone

This is an insane quote. I'm shocked he would say that. It is a quote that will piss his bosses and the players

Celtics lucky to be down only 3. Horrible quarter

He's the only guy that would coach the Hornets. He basically has tenure.

Passed the ball to the wrong team on half of possessions and only down 3 lol

Jaylen brown was only all nba last yr because the voters hate harden with a passion

Jaylen brown might be the most overrated player in the nba with banchero, ant edwards, and fox gaining on his heels fast

A lot of times teams get super sloppy when they play the 2nd-3rd string.

Who wins?
