I don’t normally do this but the regulars must still be sleeping. We’ve got basketball being played guys.

Thunder and Knicks isn't a big time matchup.

Never thought I’d say this but I’m really looking forward to the Kings - Nets this afternoon

Schroder is crap. Looked really promissing 2 years ago.

Noel is a spectacular defensive player. Teams should flock to him this offseason.

Why are games so early today? Not complaining, Dallas game at 8pm is amazing for us Slovenians

But it’s not exactly usual with exception of christmass.

Edit: ah i see, Martin Luther King day.

It's amazing that the cavs only have a 1 game lead in the tanking race. They are so bad.

Seriously. It's insane that there's four teams in the league that almost never play meaningful fourth quarters. Playing the Cavs, Suns, Knicks, and Bulls is pretty much a night off for your starters.

Conversely, Knicks not good at basketball.

Terrance Ferguson is becoming a nice 3&D player.

Cameron Payne has actually be really solid for us, kind of shocked by that honestly. Unfortunately Sexton seems to get worse with every PG/ball handler we add to this team, so thats not good.

Ferguson, George, and Grant have really good length and mobility.

Sixers had trouble getting shots off against them.

Sam Presti’s infatuation with wingspan has moments that bear fruit but the downside is he often chooses length and athleticism over shooting.

I know right! And at the start of the season everyone was freaking out over Donovan playing him big minutes when he’d go 0/7 and/or score like 3 points. I remember multiple press conferences w/ Donovan defending his decision to keep playing him. Now he’s like their best 3 point threat after PG! I guess he was right to believe in him.
