AROUND the NBA: MIN Sweeps PHX!

Draymond has been reinstated.

Saved GSW almost 9 mil in taxes

Wow...kind of feels like GS is missing the playoffs, with all that's going on 

And Portland has their Top-4 protected 2024 first round pick. Ouch.

Draymond has been reinstated.

So punching an opposing player just a few weeks after putting another player in a headlock only gets a12 game suspension?

Way to go NBA, that'll definitely show you're tough on violence!

He should be in jail after the Jordan Poole punch.

12 games is more than I expected. Killian Hayes ko'd Mo Wagner and only got 3. The league doesn't take this stuff seriously.

Green is a consistent offender though, at some point the league has to do something,  12 games is underwhelming for what he does. 
League doesn't care when something happens every now and then, and they tried to do so with Dray himself. 
The guy is simply challenging the authority of the league with his antics. He laughed off the Gobert case and suspension and then repeated what it almost immediate. 
Would have expected more tbh.

Hartenstein taking advantage of the opportunity in NY. 19 and 20 rebound games in the last 3. I believe he has a player option this summer. I wonder what he will command. I thought he could be a target for us, but he will be out of our price range.

After two disasters against Mavs, Portland beat BKN in overtime

[Chicagojk]

GS getting it good from Toronto.

What is going on with Atlanta. I swear this is maybe the 3rd or 4th time that I look at the scores and they are leading late in the fourth only to look a few hours later and see they wound up losing.

Is AJ Griffin just totally out of their rotation? I know it is a numbers crunch but he is hardly getting any playing time. is Kobe Bufkin injured? He isn't playing either. Speaking from experience, it sucks watching a depressing team for a whole season. If I was a Hawks fan, I would probably be on my 8th break from the team at this stage in the season.

I expect them to make a move.    DFS seems like the prime candidate.   They have some really interesting decisions to make.  They have a lot of good players.   They just lack that dude.

Andrew Wiggins was -29 in only 17 minutes tonight.

Please, no more talk of trading for him. I almost got caught up last week, but he’s just not good.

No way this latest re-installment could go wrong. I mean it´s not like Draymond is completely delusional. Sure Adam Silver begged him to come back, so he can choke, stomp and cold-cock more players.

Draymond: "If y'all make me go to counseling I'm just going to retire."

Silver: "You know you don't get paid if you retire right?"

Draymond: "Oh damn Adam Silver just talked me out of retirement!"

Silver: "You know you don't get paid if you retire right?"

I personally think it went down like this.

CP3: I´m the President of the NBAPA. I put my fist down for you. I literally broke my hand for you. You know what a tight asshole Adam Silver has.

Draymond: You mean is?

CP3: No I mean has.

Coincidence, I think not.

Ja gone for the season.  Shoulder surgery.

[BigDirk41]

Ja Morant out for the season. Shoulder surgery.

Utah with another big win and Milwaukee in a bit of a crisis. Indy won over Boston (no Tatum) with Haly playing only 15 minutes. Miami culture really is something different. No Butler, yet they are still winning games.

[SleepingHero]

Memphis season from hell continues. Do you think it was Morant's shooting arm?

Yes. His right arm.
