Get stuffed Kevin Durant, Giannis is the sniper now

The help defense can’t be this bad if you’re going to be this comfortable letting players iso

I was confused cause Drummond, bad as he is, is still not really bad enough to make hack-a-Drummond worth it relative to a normal Bulls halfcourt possession. Then I saw him 1-6 and tonight, so hack away I guess.

I didn’t like some of the offensive process in that first quarter with guys other than Giannis/Khris/Dame running things, but Dame still ended up with 5 assists in a quarter, so clearly he’s found something.

Grizzlies being denied the true joy of being priced out of getting to enjoy their team, it’s tough.

Wait do people actually think that’s a foul?

Maybe? I feel like people vastly underestimate how good the best player on a title team usually is. The last six Finals MVPs have been Jokic, Curry, Giannis, LeBron, Kawhi and Kevin Durant.

It’s a shame to me they copied the Champions/Europa/Europa Conference league but didn’t have the groups randomly drawn.

Sounds like boring coach speak but I felt like Washington were comfortable losing the physicality battle last game and not at all this game. They look a lot more physical on defense, rebounding, taking and-ones away and making people go to the line for two.

That 1990-91 Denver Nuggets team was 21st in offensive rating by the way, they just played with such an unbelievably batshit pace

Did… Did Jordan Poole just try running the clock down while losing with 4 minutes to go?

Bucks you better win this or the Giannis/Kuzma 1v1 competition is gonna be annoying in hindsight.

There are few shots I feel are more automatic outside of 6 feet than a Bobby Portis baseline face-up jumper.

You know someones done some mischief if another player is pointing and wagging their finger at them.

Took four bad games tonight to find this one, please just keep it tight whoever wins.

This finished a 12 point game? Orlando Magic second/third stringers you are a disgrace.

Time for Klay to get traded to a nice marina upstate I think

I love Dame just so much, can’t overstate how much him having the ball in his hands at these moments soothes the soul

We’re getting killed by pull-up mid-ranges, don’t like it but it definitely feels better going down from those than the defensive issues earlier in the season

It’s a shame because the mid-range/non-RA paint shots have been really good for Giannis this season, just not happening tonight
