felt dirty rooting for the Lakers- but nice win!

Cavs are gonna have a hard time holding onto that 2 seed with all the injuries- but it would be nice

functionally- I guess the 3 seed isnt that much different- with the goal avoiding Boston in a possible round 2...
If you told me right now we'd get the 3 seed I'd take it. playing well, but tough schedule and still a lot of guys out could slip even further.

I will say it at nauseum

they need to move him and move and heaven and earth to keep Mitchell
and I will say it again.......Mitchell might like playing with the kid as he was ecstatic when he heard he was coming (and Garland among those staying) and said he's never been happier. These things actually happened. Not rumors.

That said, IF we have Mitchell locked up and want to deal garland......

Garland has to be the worst player in the league late in games. The Cavs offense late in games is non-existent. Sickening to watch

It’s actually Tatum

Statistically


Explains why the C’s have lost so many close games

Did hear after we beat them he was something like 33% on clutch shots. admittedly very surprised.

I would probably put LeBron lower.

No one else can be LeBron. No one is a freak of nature like that- we are unlikely to ever see a LeBron type of athlete again- there are no comps.

Daaamn dude you flip-flop more than a fish outta water.

So now you're back to kissin' LeBron's rear end after talking shit about him for multiple seasons after he broke yer heart and went to the Lakers?

"no one is a freak of nature like that"

^^^^

And yet you said his prime passed him by five minutes after he went to Los Angeles.

Pick a lane!

Did you see Gobert get T'd up last night after he made the money sign to a ref? That was funny.

Allen looking like Embiid tonight and he got Rudy flustered and fouled out lol

How about the two point-blank air balls Rudy threw up last night? Can't say I've seen that before in an NBA game.

I think he might just win it.

Chet will not.

Wemby has that sewn up....imo
Last night was his 47th game with 30 or more. After the game he was asked how he is so consistent. He said every part of his life is consistent and it’s starting to pay off. Dude got married to his long time girlfriend over the all star break, nothing local about it until well after. Just a really solid and grounded guy.

Oh, I saw the pictures of his wedding.

I assumed you knew.

She's also an athlete.

They are expecting.

Not for Wolves fans. They are already unlikely to hang onto the 1 seed with KAT out, giving a win away just makes it a guarantee.

Okay good point. It sucks that KAT's gonna miss time. Never like seeing injuries, especially to key players.

Gobert has a right to be pissed

He was fouled first

But you can’t do that

Think it's possible just coincidence? I've often thought the clutch term was overused and is often coincidence.....not always of course.

I think in a positive sense it is


But as a negative you can definitely get in your head and be worse
