Great action between Brooklyn and Philly right now.

125-124 with 13 seconds left

The Butler did it again.....Identical to what he did in Charlotte.

Sixers were losing the entire game. Nets shot nearly 60% from the field.

Gutsy finished by the Sixers to will themselves to victory. Ballsy shot by Butler. Step back fade away 3 to win.

The Knicks have now won their 3rd straight.
They just beat head coach David Fizdale's former team in Memphis.
Knicks 103 - Grizzlies 98.



Enes Kanter grabbed 26 RB, and scored 21 Pts.
Tim Hardaway Jr. had 22 pts.
Emmanuel Mudiay had 17 pts.




Marc Gasol had 27 pts & Mike Conley had 23 for the Griz.

in case anyone was wonderning- Baker Mayfield is the real fucking deal.

Baker Mayfield is first rookie quarterback in NFL history to record a 140+ passer rating in consecutive games (minimum 20 attempts).



Cant believe the Browns finally have their QB. If the draft was re done today- as good as Barkley has been, there is no doubt Baker still goes #1 overall.

Just an unreal feeling. As I said- within a year or two he will be the one to replace LeBron on the mural on the Sherwin Williams building.

Pathetic game from the Kings, losses like this are why they won't make the playoffs. Frustrating to go from nearly beating the Warriors to this.

Clippers/Blazers coming down to the wire.

Clips up 3 with 2 to go.

Lillard time just tied it

100-100

whats so funny about the Sixers and Cavs discussing a Fultz trade?

makes sense to me- a rebuilding team taking a chance on a high lotto pick that has lost much of his value.

Yeah I have no idea what's so funny about it. As you said it makes a lot of sense and also Fultz is just 20 years old and been injured most of his young career. He can obviously get better if he stays healthy and get his shot back to what it was at Washington.

saw this from Sheridan.

Kind of shows how far down this guys stock is right now apparently.

If I was the Sixers I wouldnt panic and deal him for practically nothing. Guy was a consensus top 3 pick less than 2 seasons ago.

This isnt Anthony Bennett where he is just not good enough--- injuries/bad advice/and a poor attitude seem to be what is holding Fultz back.

Get a 20 year old kid healthy, take him out of a pressure situation like the Sixers who are trying to contend, and let him proceed at his own pace and you might have something--- or may be he is just a terrible bust--- but if the price was right i would hope the Cavs would take a gamble if its possible.

The kid is a winner.

* See Chauncey Billups.

Dude was considered a bust after his first few Seasons.

Landed on the right team, at the right time and everything changed.

I absolutely did not want the Clippers to trade for him.

Jimmy Butler is not a #1.

Imo.....#1's are franchise players.

But, as I said a month or so ago, put him on a team with a true #1 and he is worth every penny he will earn next year.

Philly is the perfect spot....Imo.

He's not going to make Simmons, nor Embiid, crawl into the fetal position because his personality is to strong.

I think you are one floor spacer away from being a serious contender for the next half decade at the least.

R.I.P. Willie Naulls

Celtics and Knicks legend Willie Naulls dies

When his Knicks teammates named him team captain in the 1960s, he was the first black athlete to be a captain with any major professional sports team.

Well,

The Warriors team they played (minus Dray and Curry) is no better than the Jazz minus Mitchell

 

[TurnUpTheHeat]

The kid is a winner.

Stupid comments after the game though..considering....

1. Jackson was fired. Is he not supposed to get another job until Baker says so?
2. Baker transferred from Texas Tech to Oklahoma.
