Lol wizards got to stop letting him knew that to them because it is really ridiculous

48, 48, and 50 in 3 of his last 4 games against them
Poor Daniel Gafford haha. They were doubling but they’re a crap defensive team. Sixers shot like ass. They should have gone for 150 if they were just average shooting.

Point Embiid is now averaging 6.6 assists per game haha.

@Black Adam @trojanfan12 @DJ @Shaqdaddy11 @shopson67 @Retroram52

What did you think about the end of the Lakers game? I gotta good laugh out of it.

I dunno man.

At first it looked like the ball was blatantly not in Reaves' possession when the time out was called. That being said, both Lebron and the ref stated he called time out well before he actually gestured to the ref for the timeout.

The last two minute report also stated that the ball was pinned the Reaves' leg when the time out was called.

At the time I thought the Suns got screwed over but the more I looked into it, the more it shows that the call was correct.

Additionally, the L2M report also stated that there were THREE missed calls that should have resulted in Lakers free throws.

Thanks for the breakdown. I didn't know about the two minute report details.

I'll be the first to admit there are a lot of instances when the Lakers get the benefit of certain calls (and also a lot of missed ones).

But this 'outrage' was unjustified.

If the Suns wanted to win the game they should have not turned the ball over 300 times.

I think the in season tournament is incentive for the players. Plus, they've been needing to mix things up anyway. It's inevitable that some things have to change because the times are different, the demographics as well.

Any corporation would do this for their employees, makes sense for the NBA to do the same.

Why? Because your team got knocked the fuck out? I bet you'd be saying the complete opposite if the Sixers were in Vegas today.

Players are enjoying it and it's making the games a lot more competitive. Plus for the casual fans, it's a heck of a lot more exciting to see a Lakers v Suns game than a Pistons v Wizards game.

Yeah, I'm still not a fan of the IST, but the players seem to be taking it seriously which makes the games more fun to watch.

I quite like it! The games still count as a regular season game (except the final) but it's making it a lot more fun!

If I were to change one thing it would be to start the IST to a little later - maybe start the group games around now rather than over a month ago. That way the teams are a little more warmed up.

No, I didn't want the team to have extra meaningless games. We need to get passed the 2nd round of the real playoffs. Stay focused. Don't let retards like lebron and silver commandeer your mind.

Didn't read your 2nd paragraph.

They're not extra and they're not meaningless. These count as regular season games. You would have known that if you knew anything about basketball to start with.

Helps to be educated y'know.

But then again I don't expect much from a guy not condoning sex with minors....
