Good bless MSG with the “F you Reggie” chant. Classic
deservedly so, if that happens
NBA desperately looking for an American face of the league. To be fair, Ant is living up to it and has surpassed Tatum and Booker.
is hartenstien better then nicholas claxton?...And watching divincenco defend and make big shots shows how much vassell is overpaid and overated.
I think wemby will be the face of the league not edwards
he'll have to earn it. but he wont be deprived of the opportunity. he's already very marketed, very hyped, etc. he has to take it though
I do like the fact that the Timberwolves are playing well and suddenly getting people's attention, and they're doing it as the team with the league's #1 Defensive rating and and only the 17th best Offensive rating. For a while now, lots of fans and sportswriters have been going with the narrative that defense isn't as important in this era, because the three point shot introduces too much spacing and variability into the equation, but the Timberwolves are showing that a top notch defense is still a very valuable weapon.

The Pacers are playing tough here in the the second round with Mathurin injured and out for the season and Jarace Walker unable to crack the rotation. So they've got some extra firepower organically incoming if they can resign Siakam. Obi Toppin is an RFA and I assume they have his bird rights... but bringing back both of those guys plus filling out the roster could put them close (if not over) the 1st apron. Unfortunately Spotrac's new ads are placed in a way that makes the website pretty difficult to use.
wonder why jalen smith hasint got any mins...Guess hes the odd man out with toppin and siakam getting the mins.
If we dont resign mamu,Would love to sign smith.
Probably to some extend but The West has been seriously shaken with Warriors past their prime, Lakers being meh with an aging (but still performing) Lebron, plus teams like Suns or Cilpppers who precisely can't make a team out of their stars.
And at the end of the day; it's still Ant or SGA who make MIN or OKC win. But the NBA is pretty poor these last few years with a generation of stars on their last legs or injured, and with very few impressive teams, so the ones who can find a defensive cohesion take advantage of it. Still waiting to see the rest of the POs to draw definitive conclusions.
Do you use an adblocker? Looks fine with it.
Rick Carlisle calling out the bull reffing.
He and Jim Carrey are twins. Sheesh.
Interesting take ? thats a weird take to say the least, the impact of Rudy is indeniable during the whole RS but also the POs, I'm pretty sure you will find some great defensive games of the Spurs without Bowen and/or Duncan.
Miny is a very serious contender with their current set up including Rudy who is 31 years and has still some couple of years at elite level in front of him. The what if works both ways
MIN defensive rating with Gobert 112.1
MIN defensvce rating without Gobert 113.4.
MIN's emergence is mostly due to Ant's one. And the difference with/without Gobert isn't that great that it's crazy to wonder what if team had another superstar next to Ant and KAT instead of Gobert (and all the assets he cost).
if they won it all, what would be your take ? if no Gobert they would have won more easily ? smh
I'm not a Rudy fan but he had a great season, MIN investment has been largely rewarded
Best thing Pacers ever did was hire Carlisle/Carrey
Bud would be a fool or offered truck load of money to go to that clown circus.
Cavs skull ing the 1st seed Celtics
lol Pat Bev suspended 4 games for throwing ball at fans
After the game, Beverley wouldn't allow Adams to ask him a question in a group interview in the locker room. He said it was because she didn't subscribe to his podcast. Beverley told her to get her microphone out of his face and eventually asked her to leave the interview circle.
Dort is what Sochan needs to evolve into.
Washington Jr would be a nice addition if we somehow get that guy
How in the world did SGA got 2nd in MVP and carried thunder into 1st seed when his play style is just slightly better version of Derozan

Dallas good comeback when they were about to blow the lead.
Hardaway with the greasy lucky bounce to get the buzzer beater trey.
