Cavs next 4 is:

@Milwakee
@Atlanta
@Boston
vs. Toronto

I would be happy if they got out of that at 2-2. Atlanta, Boston, Toronto will all be teams they compete against for one of the playoff spots too.

Milwaukee should be a win assuming Giannis is still in protocol. 3-1 is probably more like it

Utah just won their 8th straight. 20-7 and only 2 games behind the big bad Suns and Warriors but the media will continue to act like they don't exist even though their point differential is much better than Phoenix....Carry on

Josh okogie is becoming one of the players I most despise on the wolves...
How I feel about Justin Holiday... A redundant piece that does nothing for the Pacers in either the present or the future.

At least the Timberwolves won tonight. Be happy about that.

Another terrible shooting night for Embiid last night. Guy is a shooting guard at this point. Big for nothing

He's not top 10. I think he's top 15 though.

1) Jordan
2) Lebron
3) Kareem
4) Magic
5) Wilt
6) Shaq
7) Bird
8) Duncan
9) Kobe
10) Hakeem

I don't see how he gets on to that list unless he wins another MVP and another Championship. Even then, who do you kick off?
I agree. Lets put it in some perspective. Is the best rebounder there? Best Dunker? Where is the best free throw shooter? And even that list other than Wilt is basically post 1980, where is Oscar Robinson?

This is Thybulle's 3rd year in the league. He has played in 152 games. He has hit the 15 point mark twice in his career.

Obviously his job is not offense, but that is a little concerning. In the modern NBA its hard to have a guy who can just basically be ignored on offense playing the wing position.

It's Okoro's 2nd year in the league. He obviously is not at the same defensive level as Thybulle- but he is still a very good defender and athlete. In 90 games he has 20 games of 15 points or more.

Thybulle has elite defense- no doubt--- but wondering if Okoro is the guy I would rather have if I could pick just for a little bit more balance.

I've said it before, Okoro is a mini Lebron though, not too many guys are going to be like him. He is in the 1% of athletes. Extremely athletic and energy guy, we knew this but he is morphing into something more. That was the only question mark. He is picking and choosing his shots and driving it to the hoop strong. At this point he seems like the perfect complimentary piece
