I did not have Russell Westbrook ending his career as the more valuable asset on my bingo card after their OKC breakup.

And their remaining schedule is pretty easy, especially if Brunson is still out for the Knicks on the 2nd.  Maybe they drop one of those 5 away games in a row coming up, or the @Detroit game on the 28th being the second game of a B2B. They could go 14-2 to close it out and end up with a 70-12 record.

They aren't winning 70 they're 8.5 up on Boston. 

People forget that the only reason the Ws had an excuse to go for 70+ in 2016 is because the Spurs won 67.

The Cavs are now 13-0 with DeAndre Hunter and haven't lost since before the Super Bowl.

56-10 for a team that was picked to be in the play-in is crazy.

Hey man. We all get that the Cavs are good. You don't have to keep shoving it down everyone's throat and making shit up like you were supposed to be in the play-in. Your preseason over/under was 48.5. 

You have a more recent title and Finals appearance than most teams. Spare us the "woe is the Cavs" bullshit. You have a nice squad - back it up in the playoffs.

They just took care of business @ Memphis with their best player Mitchell sitting out. They are going to win a lot of games where they rest some starters towards the end of the season, especially as other teams rest their top guys and don't have anywhere near the depth to match up.

They seem to think they can just turn it on when they need to. They'd better be careful with that, it'll burn you.

oh man. Joker and 1, Murray 3 and a russel steal dunk in the last 50 seconds. that should've been a 20+ pt win. I know the lakers still field NBA players, but man. Denvers gonna have to throw away that game film.

Nuggets are fucking shitty. who the fuck is afraid of this shit team in the playoffs? 
Lol. You guys have a chip? Didn't think so.

They play to the level of their competition far too often.

Russ has been good in Denver. Of course I am fully expecting him to lose one if not two games of a vital upcoming playoff series by himself.

Is Malone even a good coach? JJ has given him real trouble twice now.

You might need a Blue sky account to view this. J.B. Bickerstaff went IN on the officials in the post game presser.  Dennis Green would be proud. 🤣

Cade got ejected for following a ref around the court and berating them for 5 minutes and even getting one tech.  He was literally spewing profanities the entire time.  He was asking for it.  Anyone except Draymond Green would get tossed.

Total fouls for the game were Pistons 21 and OKC 20.

SGA shot 10 FT's but 2 of them were T's and another two were from an intentional foul.  He also played a masterful game and looked like Kobe doing it.

This whining thing is getting old and isn't supported by any data at all.  Detroit complaining about a foul that was called "hostile" but they reviewed it and overturn it.  I have no idea why sand is in his vagina.

BBall reference predicts that Houston, Memphis, and Denver will all finish with 51-52 wins and occupy the 2-4 seeds in the Western Conference.

If that happens, depending on matchups, I could easily see the 5-6-7 teams all advancing to the conference semis.

You gotta be shitting me.

Minnesota down by 2 with 3.5 seconds left (after a ridiculous 3 from Obi Toppin) and of course they get the ball to Anthony Edwards with a chance to win the game...

Just kidding - they actually drew up a play for Julius Randle.  Yes, Julius Randle...who of course left it short as the Twovles lost to the Pacers JV squad.

I shit you not.  Like they chose to draw up a play for Randle instead of Ant.

Ant is like 0-30 in game winning situations and already missed one tonight.

 

we lost the game by electing not to  challenge  the ball off Mcconnells elbow in the final seconds. we would've gotten the ball and the lead. JK Toppin probably hits a 75 footer to force OT.

I wonder if it's replicable.

I haven't watched the Raps all year until the other night. Where did this dude Orlando Robinson come from? He is big, athletic, very active, has handles, can pass it, and a good rebounder.
