Denver has a crazy HCA with their elevation.

Mexico City is ~40% higher.

Build a team to run in Mexico City and go 41-0 at home!

Looking forward to the Assist Contest at this years ASG!

Wemby vs Chet tonight probably on a hideous looking court

Making me watch Embiid play "basketball" twice back-to-back is the worst thing Adam Silver has ever done to me.

I cannot fathom the massive gravity of the ref's ball that just called a flopping tech on Obi Toppin in a game in which Embiid is playing.

Haliburton's last two games:

25/17a 0 TOs
33/15a 0 TOs

Pacers are shipping the IST, book it

Obi Toppin with a huge game tonight. 27 pts 12/15 fg lol


Pacers get 20+ pts from Obi and they are likely unstoppable

Anyone else dislike the new tournament courts?

Can't stand how they look.

I dug the one in Sacramento.

Good to see Obi kick ass. Kings looked good with Foxy back last night.

And Hali is just nuts wow. Luka had 8 tos today

Dray and Klay ejected?

Nothing for Gobert?

At least refs had the decency to let me stop watching this game 2 minutes in

Lol Dray ****ing head locked Rudy. That **** was hilarious.

draymond sucks at basketball and is such a stupid piece of ****, toss his dumb ass out of the league. expensive backpack ass mother****er, legit nothing without steph. foh you bubba gump bitch

Saw something I've never seen before in IND/PHI.

Midway through the 3rd, a PHI player got hit while shooting and had to leave the game under the concussion protocol. Because he left, the Pacers get to pick his replacement to shoot the FTs. The replacement player missed both.

At some point in the 4thQ, Myles Turner is at the line shooting 2 FTs. He hits the 1st and there's a TO. During the TO, the refs get together and realize they misapplied the rule. Because it was a concussion issue, not any other type of injury, it should've been Nick Nurse, not Rick Carlisle that got to choose PHI's FT shooter.

Refs opt to wipe away the 2 missed FTs and give PHI the chance, prior to Myles shooting his 2nd FT, to pick a shooter and shoot 2 FTs (they made both). Never seen anything like it.

They got it right. rock n roll, mayne

They 100% got it right, I've just never seen that kind of "re-do" before. There's always reviews for 2/3pt decisions and the like, but I'd never seen the "We made the wrong call 12 minutes ago, we'll just award some extra FTs" move.

I think it’s kind of ****ed that far after the fact. What do they do if the original player makes one or both? I guess both is no harm no foul, but one? Ask if Nurse wants to keep the 1 or wipe it and retry both?

Not sure it’s the same as reviewing a past 3 point attempt to make sure a foot wasn’t on the line, as that’s pretty cut and dry. And that’s generally done on the next dead ball or during the next time out after the make in question.

Funny they were like alright Myles, we are going to shoot these two and then you can come back for your second.

Also, I don’t see why a concussion should be any different than a sprained ankle, torn acl, or whatever other injury.

Yeah, Myles made his first, then there's the TO, then the additional time for the league to call in and point out the error. I would be it was 8-10 minutes between his FTs.

It's also a little odd because PHI missed their 2 FTs, but they got the offensive rebound. I believe they missed the shot thereafter, but that speaks to your point. They'd obviously get to keep those points too...

Re: the bolded, it's because the original rule prevents the obvious angle shoot in a high leverage spot "Oh no, my worst FT shooter got fouled, guess he's hurt and my best FT shooter will have to take the shots. Darn". Instead, if a player is hurt, he has to leave and cannot return and the opposing team gets to pick anyone, including players on the bench, to take the shots.

The concussion protocol is different because the NBA can call for it. It wouldn't be fair for a team to lose a player because the doctor wants to check him out, only for him to come back in later (as happened tonight) and the opposing team to also get to pick the shooter. PHI didn't angle shoot, nor would they have had the chance. The NBA pulled the player, so PHI gets to name his replacement.

clips lose again, now 0-5 in the harden era lol


also the woyas lost somehow. i looked earlier and they were up 15-20 points i think, uh2ci

Makes sense. I haven’t paid too much attention to the NBA concussion protocol since it isn’t very common. Probably why the refs missed it too haha.

This is going into the OP. +25,000 TZ Points

nice thats nice

A chokehold??? He should get a minimum of 10 game suspension.

But we all know Adam Silver is a spineless slappy. David Stern wouldn’t stand for this bs.

I'm finally pro Gobert. Dude has obv been a massive tool in the past, but seems a bit more humble now and his peers hate him too much. Go Rudy go!
