Steph though is just incandescent. Still so good at 35

The Dubs wouldn't have won tonight w/o the solid play of Poole & Kuminga.
And yeah....it was against the Spurs......but still.
Gotta rep at home no matter what.

The fuck? Did we not just go through a pandemic and you learned nothing? Why are you letting them out there playing if its that damn bad? I swear if they got the Lakers sick and we lose games because of it I'm gonna go ballistic.

Would love to see Ayton #s with KD. That's my only concern with Phoenix right now

The Knicks won the season series over Cleveland 3-1.

I don’t think any are there for the first ballot yet, which means Love is not going to be first ballot.

Jokic probably is

But cousins cant get a job

I mean…

You know why.

It isn’t basketball reasons.

You can’t be an asshole in the locker room as a role player. Nobody signing up for that. Cousins is like the opposite of Udonnis Haslem who has carved out a 20 year career by being a good locker room guy.

Teams are much better off taking a lesser player who isn’t going to make waves.

Character does matter. Just unfortunately not as much at the top of a roster.

Ready for some Final Four action today.

So who will be the first to insult everyone’s intelligence by playing 1 minute and coming out?

Can’t go to that well too often without ruining their numbers.

About time.

Pretty sure this signals the NBA giving Embiid the MVP this year because he ain’t making that. He’s played over 65 games once in his 7 year career,

He's at 63 games with 5 games left. He's going to play at least 2 of the final 5

I’m pretty sure that you’re a front running casual. If you weren’t you would know the full context. A hot topic in the NBA has been the growth of load management over the last few years pertaining to a good many players, especially stars who sell seats. It started with Pop and the Spurs and it has grown over time. Adam Silver has a press conference at the All Star weekend every year and this year the big story coming out of that revolves around load management. That’s what this is about. It’s not a response to Joel Embiid. If you were a real NBA fan and not a casual who is front running a Nuggets franchise with no rings who just recently became relevant you’d know these things.
