This team! At the bar and we got down 26. Told fellow patrons don’t worry we’ll make a game of it no matter win or lose. Trailed between 15-26 all game and now lead 104-100. CP3 is going off, 9-10 FGs and 6-7 from 3.
Still might lose but this team of misfits is fun to watch
I know in big scheme its meaningless but to win like this is fun. Biggest home comeback eva. These misfits do not quit.

I know LeBron is an all time great but man he takes some dumb shots. I know he needs to shoot some threes to keep the defense honest but a 30 ft contested shot is not a good shot. He can break down the defense easily to get a better shot. I feel like he gets tired or lazy and decides to just shoot a three sometimes.

Without the name of the player in there, this very well could be said of Luka. He is showing the way to keep the defender honest, even if it's a 30 ft step back. Simmons should learn this lesson.
Lakers 14 game road winning streak, is over thanks to the Pacers, 105-102. AD sat out with a sore ankle., Sabonis led the way, with 26 and 11. Lakers get the Bucks next, and both teams are 24-4.
Knicks playing much better under Mike Miller.

I see your point, but those shots, aren't considered bad anymore. I've seen Bron get hot from there, and drain 3 or 4 in a row. His percentage from that range isn't as good as Dame, Young, Curry, Kristaps or a few others, but he can make them, it just wasn't his night.

Don't know why, but they are playing much harder for him, than Fiz.

3-3 now after the Hawks' blowout. DSJ had 3 DNP's before Atlanta - first one because of a migraine. They're happy for him to put up 8/5/5 in 13 minutes.

And Charlotte is actually not terrible. I had them as the favorite to have the worst record in the league.
As well as OKC is playing, I wonder if they will be buyers or sellers at the TDL ? I guess it depends if they are still in the hunt for a playoff berth. That treasure trove of picks has them in the drivers seat.

I don’t think buyers but the thought crossed my mind. However I do think they will just hum along until a good offer shows up. They have no urgency to make any rash decisions. We are doing this with players hurt too. And lost Russ/PG/Grant.
I will say, I’ve been hard on Billy but he is coaching them up. I think his issue was walking into a playoff team whereas now he is able to coach and place players in how he wants them too. Not a slam on KD, Russ, Melo, PG, Grant and others but they were harder to coach. When they all left he can implement his system
