Everybody talking about the Lakers stretch of games but Milwaukee has been facing some lightweights very recently.
Aaron Gordon, Devin Booker, Tyrese Halliburton, Trae Young, Anthony Edwards and Luka Doncic all made the Conference Finals.

Where’s Joel Embiid?

How in the heck are the Hornets a .500 team? It seems like every night they're getting blown out and down double digits every 1st quarter

No worries, Embiid, is euro stepping, and crossing over+behind the back dribbling.

Everything is a struggle for Philly. This Rockets team has no business being up at halftime.

Melo and amare should thrive in this offense. If Jeremy Tyler and cole Aldridge looked that good in summer league then us knick fans have a lot to be excited about. Make room for all the bandwagoners when we take off

Jaren Jackson Jr. is actually a pretty aggressive scorer. Could be a good thing but he takes really stupid shots he has no chance of hitting, super often.

They beat the Nets and Hawks already this year. This is the NBA. Anybody can beat anyone.

Philly's problem isn't that they can't beat good teams, it's that they play down to bad ones.

They just went on a little run so maybe they'll pull away.

I think the number is 2-20 going on 2-21. But they're 8-7 without him. Yikes.
