I think GSW, LAC and Mavs will decide for spots 5-7. LAL might get into it, although it will be difficult without LeBron

WB igniting a run for the Warriors with 2 straight turnovers is just hilarious.
Fitting in multiple new players late in the year is tough. Last night the Clippers started 3 guys they picked up the last few weeks. Expect growing pains. It just feels like too many changes were made. But they are still going to be a tough out, but they have a lot to figure out. How Draymond was playing Russ last night is such a mind F. It can certainly mess with your head when a team doesn't even concern itself to guard you at the perimeter.
I don't think anyone wants to play GS in the playoffs. Once Curry comes back, they are going to be a team that scares everyone. Might be too much to ask them to win every series on the road, but I wouldn't bet on them in round 1 at least.
Detroit signs Eugene Omoruyi to a 10 day deal.
The Knicks have won 8 straight (2nd time this season) beating the Heat 122-120, on a buzzer-beating 3 pointer from Julius Randle who finished with 43 pts and 8 3's.. Brunson added 25 pts and 8 helpers.

It's because there are no really great defensive teams. There are good ones, and they seem to play it in spurts. And also 25 pt leads are nothing to overcome when a team gets momentum and 3 pt shots start falling. Back in the day when 3's weren't shot as often, you get down 25 in the 3rd, it's a guaranteed loss.
Ja to miss the next 3 games following a league investigation... F-ck the thug-life Ja. You don't need it.
It was starting to look like Ja might get that first team All NBA point guard spot over Luka. Now, not so much. Dame is probably Luka’s only realistic competition now.
