I want Lebron James to get one more triple double this season: that way he would have 82 triple doubles in his career. Enough for an entire season. Yes, I know, others have more. I don’t want him to get two.

Nurkic leg injury in double OT.

He is likely out for the season, and the playoffs.

A fan holds up a "Nurk Love" sign.

The Heat retired Chris Bosh’s Jersey... why? Watered down retirements. Toronto? Sure. But Miami? That was Wade and LeBron.

No.

The Thunder were favored in the 2012 Finals, partly because of their frontcourt.

Bosh showed them.

Sure, but retiring the jersey? Ugh.

How do you feel about the Thunder retiring Nick Collison's jersey?

And the Grizzlies retiring Zach Randolph's jersey?

When I think of the Grizzlies, I think about Zach Randolph. When I think about Zach Randolph, which is not often, I think about the Grizzlies. When I think about Miami I think about a lot of players. But not Bosh. When I think about Bosh, daily, I think about Toronto. I would be absolutely fine with Toronto retiring his jersey. I realize that the number of seasons, for each respectively, is not that far off. I know that there are exceptions, but I typically treat the player as the team they started with.

Doncic becomes the 2nd player to record a 40 point triple double before 21. LeBron James was the other one.

LeBron James becomes the first person to triple double against every team.

Westbrook has done it against 29 teams.

Doncic outscored Golden State and outrebounded them in the first quarter today.

Tracy McGrady once outscored a team at halftime. I'll try to find that game.

I found the McGrady game:

McGrady Scores 43 in Magic Win

He outscored Denver 37-32 at halftime.

Nice Westbrook tribute video. They had a clip of him and Durant too.

And of him from the 2012 Finals.

They showed a lot of clips of Westbrook dancing, just like he normally does.

Nice play, Gallinari to Adams for the hook shot.

Don't usually see two bigs in the paint like that, making a good play.

During his postgame conference, Westbrook had 100% positive comments towards the Thunder ownership. He talked about how they had his back countless times, and said they did a lot for him.

If Gobert or Mitchell or Ingles ever move on, I hope they can say the same about the Jazz organization.

TNT needs to drop Boston-Milwaukee on Thursday and replace it with Utah-New Orleans.

Zion vs. Gobert, should be a interesting.

20-0.

That's how Charlotte started the game against Houston today.
