So Luka Doncic dropped a 44-6-6 tonight, with only one TO. And he shot 17/21 on FGA

He is just unreal.



Imagine Luka teaming up with Jokic. You could take 3 "in-shape" fans from the stands and they'd still be a dynasty.

It looks like the Celtics dodged a bullet.

Time Lord is ALWAYS hurt. Good player on his day but it's smart to cut bait if an opportunity arises

The Clippers are next level pathetic. And it's the best thing to watch in the NBA. I think they like getting blown out so they get to play less. If I'm T-Lue I'm making them play the entire 4th quarter if they're down by 20+ as punishment. That would light a fire under their ass!

Clips were 3-2, and were two missed game winners away from being 5-0. PG and Kawhi averaging 50+ together and the offense as a whole looks great with space and pace.

0-4 since the trade, only one of the games is even close. Harden - I AM the system

Kelly Oubre Jr. was struck in the upper chest area by a silver vehicle traveling at a high-rate speed on Saturday night. The car fled the scene.

In addition to broken ribs, Oubre has injuries to his hip and right leg.

James Harden introduced at home for the first time. Surprised the Clippers crowd didn’t get louder for him.
Quote:
James Harden is a -27 in a game the Clippers trail by 6 in the 4th quarter

The Clippers just lost to the 1-8 Grizzlies who started Jacob Gilyard and Bismac Biyombo

They are 0-4 in the James Harden era. They face the Nuggets in the In-Season Tournament in Denver on Tuesday.

I knew the Clippers shouldn't be 8.5 favorites against anyone! The Mavs went on a 32-2 run against them last game.

Haliburton goes 25/17a with 0 Turnovers and wasn't even the best Tyrese on the floor. What a world we live in.

It's pretty incredible. Westbrook was +10 in 30 minutes last night. Harden was -28 in 28 minutes. That contrast is incredible.

The James Harden Clippers losing is my new favorite thing to watch in the Association. Long may it continue

Ime Udoka might be that dude and one of those select few coaches who are actual difference makers.

Huge missed opportunity if the halftime show wasn't Tyrese the singer.

It also helps when you are coaching a team that has a player making the leap.

I am increasingly skeptical about the ceiling of this Warriors team, mainly because I don't think there is a small lineup that can do what the Warriors small lineups have done in the past. When the Warriors go small, they have to encourage a fast, frenetic style of play to avoid getting exploited by size, and they have to shoot the ball exceptionally well.

Chris Paul may be cooked as a scorer and a frenetic style does not suit him. Wiggins has shot the ball terribly from the field and his horrendous FT shooting seems to have made him reluctant to attack. Reports of Kuminga's improved shot making appear to have been exaggerated. I'm sure Klay's shooting will improve, but he is strictly a a 3pt shooter now. He doesn't do anything else well.

Is IME a significant part in said player making the leap tho?

@KeithSmithNBA

On the Celtics-Knicks broadcast, Adam Silver once again all but confirmed the NBA will expand after the new TV deal is done.

Silver talked about a "couple of cities in the US", but mentioned Mexico City and Vancouver, and possibly Montreal (who he said has reached out to the NBA), as other cities the league has interest in.
Quote:
My guess is the NBA does Seattle and Las Vegas within 2-3 years of the TV deal getting done. Then I think a couple of years after that, they'll add two more teams. Adding four teams at once has the potential to get very messy. But I do think they'll go to 34 relatively soon.

ya seattle & vegas seems lockish
any other candidates out there for after?

mexico city might be good if they can make it work. and while i'd love to see a team back in vancouver, i kinda think montreal might be better tbh
