Celtics suck but the nba play in games is a great concept. All the sudden the regular season matters. Now build in a bye as a reward for a 1 seed and all the sudden teams aren't skipping the last week of the season

Is Luka a little bitch? Just seeing a lot of stuff on his attitude and technicals lately, but I haven't watched any Mavs games.

I read one recent article about how he is more outward (gestures, etc.) in his dealings with officials, but he acknowledged he is aware of his actions and that he needs to tone it down.

It's been a frustrating season but Tatum and Brown look like a core of a championship team (maybe after Durant and Lebron retire).
Damn, impressive Jinx.

Wouldn't have mattered. Danny needs to do something. Tough call on fournier. Depends on price but feels like they've made their decision if they're over the cap. Kemba worked out for a bit but we're on downside now and not so hopeful beyond this year. Guess hoops has changed but you can't go giving up 130.

If loving Russell Westbrook's game, warts and all, is wrong, I don't wanna be right.

I think Tatum, a healthy Walker, and younger guys stepping up can still pull off an upset. Covid, injuries and immaturity were issues but I'm very optimistic about them for next year and a little fun in this year's playoffs.

It’s a testament to the Play-in Tournament idea that the only team with an incentive to lose for seeding purposes right now is the Sixers. And boy are they having a go at it.

Ben Wallace being the first undrafted player inducted into the Basketball Hall Of Fame is a mind-blowing fact.

That’s the 5th HoFer from the Class of ‘96 (albeit undrafted) along with AI, Kobe, Ray Allen, and Nash. And frankly they should have a 6th with Peja Stojakovic.

Four-time DPOY, All-NBA Second Team x3, All-NBA Third Team x2, 14th all-time in blocks, 65th in steals (other PF/C in front of him - Olajuwon, Karl Malone, Garnett, Barkley, George McGinnis, Clifford Robinson, David Robinson, Bobby Jones).

Just so offensively inept. And free throws.
