CJ Miles might be back? Man he's so impactful when he's on.

 

That would be so huge. He's basically what we're missing.

[Abomination]

Holy crap Boucher got up there on that dunk!

He's such a fun player, not really totally NBA ready but such a caricature of a player.

4 games rest for Leonard? I can see 1 or 2 but 4. Oh well as long as they’re winning I guess.

I think he has a sore leg (from one or two games before he sat out). I care about the playoffs, so whatever they have to do to have guys healthy for then I'm fine with.

Heh, at the time of writing this in the 1st quarter (3 mins left), Harden has 19 points, the Knicks team has 18.

[Abomination]

Not a good time to take the 2 points there for FVV. Should have pulled up with the 3. Unlikely Collison misses both.

If they lost Olidipo for the season, that’s good for you guys. He’s fun to watch though, so bad for NBA in general obviously. They had definite chance of coming out of East

Kawhi bought a house in Cali for 13,300,000......... thoughts? Laker or Clipper bound?

[connorp]

O/U for Harden against you guys is 42.5 tonight

Apparently it's too far away from either team for commuting purposes, so probably inconsequential.

A bunch of high profile NBA players have LA/California homes, even more so of they're from the area which many are, I wouldn't read too much into it.

[Abomination]

We're getting our asses whooped.

[Abomination]

Terrible last possession there, but holy crap at almost pulling a comeback out of that horrible game.

 

Also, holding Harden to 35 has to be considered a partial victory.

[burlingtonbandit]

As if they had a chance at the end. Nurse had a brutal night tonight. Have to get a better shot than that at the end.

The house doesn’t affect it, but he’ll be signing for the Clippers.

Clippers. As many always thought he would.

Raps looking much better tonight.

It's much easier to look good against Dallas.

I think it is possible to play a good game against a s*** team. Plus the Mavs have a hell of a home record.

[Orgfiller]

If we completely forget that the third quarter happened, this was a really well played game by the Raptors. Welcome back Kyle Lowry!

[Krylian]

Anthony Davis requests a trade

[connorp]

Wow. He’s definitely going to strong arm the process too and say where he’s going to sign long term and where he won’t. But I guess recent history shows teams will still try it anyway

I have no vested interest here but I'm curious...why do you dislike the Raptors so much?

I don't think he actually hates the Raptors, he's just a LeBron bandwagonner.

Yeah I don’t dislike any NBA, just enjoy trolling you guys mostly... but I do enjoy both storylines like LeBron or Brady..while also enjoying story lines where a player/team is a post-season choker... so I may root accordingly

That wasn’t really a back-handed shot at the Raps. That was legit how I think it’ll play out. Obviously Raps are a recent example like OKC was

[connorp]

If you can acquire AD and try to sell him on the franchise (also by winning), think you have to take the shot even if Rich Paul is trying everything to dissuade you

[Dr. Dinger]

JV + Siakam + Powell (or Miles) + a 1st for AD would seem to be a very enticing offer for the Pelicans considering their lack of leverage.
