Who says nobody is watching NBA games? Viewership and attendance is up.

Will Donovan Mitchell stay in Cleveland?

For how much? Spurs have a lot of money and not a lot of people to spend it on. Maybe a 1+1 of 40 mil, 20 mil a year with a team option in year 2.

I don’t believe Chris Paul will ever remotely sniff a $40m contract again.

Maybe MLE while ring-chasing on a contending team?

I think even less than that. BAE money like Westbrook.

First time watching Embid since he returned from injury. I thought he looked awful. Not sure if it is injury or just out of shape....maybe both.

Others said this last night, but I am really glad Batum is no longer a Clipper. He just always seems to make an impact...even if he played limited minutes.

I really hope the Knicks and Philly is a good series. The fan hostility is going to be awesome in that series. Last night Philly was giving it to their own in Tobias Harris.

The expectation is Miami's Jimmy Butler will be out multiple weeks, sources said. Butler remarkably played the final three quarters vs. 76ers last night with what is now feared to be an MCL injury.

Batum made the biggest play in the world cup against Slovenia blocking the game winner and securing France's gold medal match. 

He makes so many winning plays. His wife said he plans retiring after the Olympics this year, which is a shame cause he's still a great player.

Check out another Shaqtin moment from last night play in with Drummond.

Seemingly unaware Caruso is in front of him, he goes and trucks him, hurting Caruso's ankle in the process.

Oklahoma City Thunder MVP candidate Shai Gilgeous-Alexander has agreed on a new lucrative, multiyear contract extension with Converse – with his first signature shoe releasing in 2025 and title of Creative Director of Converse Basketball.

Giving it to Harris was justified. He's been terribly inconsistent and horrible at times.  You know if Philly fans boo Santa Claus, they aren't going to cut Harris any slack...

That's very unfortunate. Caruso is a dawg, they'll miss him if he's not available.

Mavs dodged a bullet in free agency. Injury-prone guys like Irving, Green or even Doncic wouldn't survive the season next to someone like Drummond.


RE: AROUND the NBA: Jimmy Butler Expected Out Multiple Weeks due to MCL - Mavs2021 - 04-18-2024

All I will say about Heat/Sixers is that if I was a new NBA franchise owner, my big splash move would be: Hey Erik here is a ten year $250M contract, and 5% equity in my franchise, wanna leave the Heat. So strange that new owners always chase these big old stars, but they never think of simply hiring the best head coach instead.

Why did Caruso grab his left leg when it appeared to be his right leg that Dummond injured? Soccer player reflex?

That Batum's block against Slovenia was in olympics semi final, not in the world cup. And it still hurts ?.

Another replay last night showed Drummond stepping on his left leg and a bit of the right one too.


Truly a colossal f up by him as Caruso is a game time decision but is doubtful.

Drummond is a huge Luka!
