Man... Luka has just got IT. The end of that game tonight with ridiculous plays on offense and D and that final buzzer beater for the win was just stupid. Stupid ridiculous stuff legends do.


The best part of that for me was that it was Grayson Allen choking 2 FT's that allowed Luka to win it with the off balance leaner 3.

Unreal

Hell of a player. I wanted to the Suns to get him so bad at one point. Good for him. Health before basketball.

I understand Aldridge left a considerable amount of money on the table in the buyout with the Spurs.

The buyout was reportedly for $5.8 million.

Steph curry is en fuego right now. 9th straight game over 30, 2nd straight game with 10 plus threes had 11 last night. In the last 3 games he has a 23 point 3rd Q against Houston, a 21 point first quarter against Denver, and a 25 point 3rd Q against OKC. Admittedly 2 of the are weak teams but last three 3 games 38 in 35 minutes, 53 in 36 minutes, and 42 in 29 minutes! 29-49 on 3's in the last 3 games with games if 8, 10 and 11 made.

If they get into the playoffs they won't go far they just don't have enough depth to, but man is it fun to watch Curry right now. And Wiggins is balling too.


Jinxed him only 4-13 from 3 last night but they broke the game open late with his 3's and he still put up 33 in 35 minutes with Okoro and Dellavadova taking turns holding him the whole game. Late in the game Delly was guarding Jordan Poole and was just holding him all over and Poole turned to the ref and said "he's holding me the whole time" and the Warriors announcers started laughing and said he must not have noticed Steph went out

CP3 is going to run a front office some day. I see him more of a GM than a coach.

This is not good news especially for Jazz fans. Donovan Mitchell is being helped to locker room.

Wow. That's terrible news. Hope it's not quite as bad as it looked. This could really derail their fantastic season to date.

X-rays are negative but next is the MRI.

It's being described as a right ankle sprain.

He favors it a lot after, but the actual injury did not look that bad to me. Just how it looks though. Not a knee, ankle instead so that is good.

I thought the Sixers were going to do us a solid in beating a Kawhi-less Clippers team tonight, but George is beating again tonight and brought them back from 17 down to take the lead late in the fourth.

was really hoping the Sixers would give us a cushion loss as we go into that brutal 7 game stretch coming up.
