That is one ugly box score.

Losing by 50 to a .500 team?

Speaking of triple-doubles, the Pistons, of all teams, had some history last night, with two players recording triple-doubles for only the 12th time in NBA history.

Man, some of Chamberlain's numbers just look like typographical errors. Scroll through his game logs for 61-62. He put up thirteen games of 50-30. Thirteen!

a trade exception and a second-round pick for a guy who hasn't played at all -- and who I've forgotten is on the team at least three times at various points this season -- is pretty good Presti-ing.

That's why you sign three-and-D veterans. And, they can still move Leonard again, if they desire, as he is just a contract now.

Literally.

So apparently John Cleese is a Utah Jazz fan?

And his one problem is he didn’t go to Russia that night because he had extracurricular activities, and they froze to death.

Just about half as many points as the all-time leader. That's a Hall of Fame career right there.

Well, in fairness, there is an article today about it. He's at 50% apparently.

Had to look up his Basketball Reference page. Seven All-Star games (in an eight-season span), twice All-NBA Second Team, thrice Third Team. 51st in points, 71st in rebounds, 71st in blocks, 60th in win shares. They have his HOF probability at 50.9%. His candidacy seems like it will come down to how he is viewed for being a compiler as opposed to a star, but Seven All-Star games (in a 30-team league) seems like a "yes" on its own.

I chose to watch day 2 of a draft with a bunch of players I never heard of rather than seeing Tatum put up 60 in a 32 point come back. It's been a frustrating season but Tatum and Brown look like a core of a championship team (maybe after Durant and Lebron retire).

Team has no defense or bench players. Maybe the new guy will play but there's like 10 games left and he's a shooter too. Yes tatum and brown and I like smart and williams but they're missing something. Miss guys like jae crowder and morris twin. Yeah heyward too but the whole jumpshooting/efficiency quest has killed their defensive identity.

At least I didn't praise Marcus Smart who got ejected for immitating John Stockton.
