Basketball (NBA/ FIBA)

So far imo it should be Embiid

Another 37/10/11 statline against the Bucks.

Monster game and monster win.

Lillard in the last 5 minutes of close games is just unreal, time and time again he drags us to victory from the jaws of defeat.

Anyone want a non-dunking Blake Griffin?

Brooklyn…really?

EDIT: yes, really!

Milwaukee should have been all over this… His defense might be mediocre but they need another playmaker, especially in play offs settings.

Not sure even the Lakers can stop them now. Obviously Blake isn’t the player he once was, and very poor on defense, but he is a big body too throw at Davis and tire him down.

Thoughts?

Make sense on offense. Run endless pick-and-roll/pop with whoever plays with the bench unit (Irving or Harden). A disadvantage on defense. But they are becoming a switch everything team. Lot like Houston were. In that sense it’s not a bad move.

If they can get some productive minutes out of Roberson and/or Shumpert…seem unstoppable really.

The all star game just turned into a stupid, meanlingless 3-point all you can shoot game.
Next time why not play H.O.R.S.E??

Blake Griffin isn’t going to be the difference in the Nets beating the Lakers, dood is beyond washed lmaooo. Not saying I’m not worried about the Nets but Blake isn’t going to make them any better he’s just along for the ride if they win a chip.

Love how Lakers fans are saying what @BigWeng_4LYFE is saying about Blake. The Nets don’t need him to be the Blake of old. He’s a role player now, the 5th/6th/7th/8th guy (if Joe Harris is your 4th). In that role he has probably more than enough to offer and will be better than most players in similar roles. Griffin needs to be a screener on offense and hustle on defense. His role won’t be bigger than that.

Kyrie was cooking last night vs Boston with 40 pts…insane handles as usual !!

Fuck Embiid landed awkwardly after a big dunk, fingers crossed he’s ok.

Jokic is putting up actual superstar number. Last night again 32 points and 14 rebounds…slowly but surely the Nuggets are climbing in the standings too.

Wild collapse by the Pelicans Vs us today, threw away a 17 point lead with 6 mins remaining.

Meyers Leonard really fucked up by using a racial slur on a livestream. He was suspended and fined, but now gets traded with a first round pick for Trevor Ariza.

Anthony Edwards is so authentic. There’s no media trained response with this kid and it’s great to see.

Him and KAT both went for 40+ in an upset win over the Suns yesterday.
