Wizards are outmatched. Simmons is dominating Westbrook on both ends. Embiid is doing whatever he wants. Harris cannot miss.
Randle is costing himself a lot of money with his playoff performance so far.
Trae is destroying the hopes and dreams of NYC ?

Man, the sports hate culture in NY, Boston and Philly is so tired. Just enjoy the game and root for your team.
I sure hope the AAC is half as rockin for game 3 as MSG is tonight. This game is crazy. I had almost forgotten what the crowd adds to the experience, even for viewers.
Derrick Rose is an absolute warrior.
Poor Trae... Wink
I'll throw a name out since we still probably need a backup PF who can shoot and not hurt the team's +/-.  We can scout him, but don't blink or you will miss it, in the Memphis/Utah game.  UFA Georges Niang.  TS% is over .600.  3% is over 42%.  Plus double digits in +/- every month this season.  Careful on the +/- data.  Prior to this  year he's been a net negative five years in a row.  I don't think he would complain about standing in the corner.

Probably because that is the only reason why he is on the floor in the first place. Not a good rebounder/defender but shooting always has some value. Thought about him as well. Basically a lower volume/limited role version of Davis Bertans. Not bad if he is available for BAE or vet min money. Otherwise I am out. Who would he even replace. Melli? In that case I probably prefer Melli´s defensive versatility over another shooter.

Doubt it they still pay Gallinari 20M/year. He´s bringing his usual play-off shooting percentages 23/18/0.
Memphis is a impressive young team. While I don't expect them to beat Utah, they are gaining valuable playoff experience, and Ja Morant and Dillon Brooks are having their coming out party. I expect them to be the Mavs toughest competition in their division for the next few years.

Full blown felony assault especially given pandemic situation.  Maybe Knicks and Sixers fans need to kept behind plastic barriers. Should go to jail for that but its NY so he will get a slap on the wrist.

Banning him is not enough.  This is a police matter.  Its amazing that he did this in front of thousands of people on live tv and then walked out of the arena.
When they make an example out of one of these douche bags with more than 1 book thrown at them it will somewhat deter this stupidity...

Also have a system like a scanner for your ticket that gets scanned every time you buy a beer...when you reach idiot level intoxication you get cut off immediately for the rest of the game...

A worthy objective, but it would be easy to work around the ticket-scanning implementation.

No need to worry about me, though, because I'm on the wagon:

Hate seeing Kleber still listed as questionable.

He is undoubtedly a key member for this series and team.

Maybe he's on there to mess with the Clippers
