Guess who has Celts-Nets game 4?

So just admitting it's not really his back.

Too bad he's not available for the Bulls game.

watched brooklyn all year, to me...they are the guatemala national basketball team without 2 players. given that, i'm going to take them tonight at -1.

Funny how today I heard no less than three talking heads saying that Paul needs to drop him as a client.

Enjoyin' hearin' Mark Kestisher on TV.

Rare. he's always a national radio guy.

Raptors - Sixers on NBATV now!

Hear the call by Kestisher!

Nets were 24-12 and 2nd in the East when they decided to let Kyrie play. Ended up 7th and swept.

Is this cat getting paid full salary during the year of his inability to work?

James Harden might be done as an elite player. I don't think I have ever seen a player fall of a cliff as fast as he has this year. Seems like a role player out there.

I don't think Philadelphia issued his paychecks? Or maybe some bonus money? Whatever it was, Simmons has filed a grievance to claw back $20 million that Philly never paid him. Shaq thinks the league will put provisions in the next CBA to make it easier not to pay goldbricking players:

Westbrook likely cooked for his career. Westbrook's fitness never an issue; so it's not something he could work on to get back in the game. Harden could maybe go on the Chris Paul plant-based diet thing and rejuvenate his game and extend his career a few seasons.

James Harden's contract (if he re-signs this summer):


2023: $47,366,760 (AGE: 33)

2024: $49,735,098 (AGE: 34)

2025: $53,713,905 (AGE: 35)

2026: $57,692,712 (AGE: 36)

2027: $61,671,519 (AGE: 37)

I know Morey has a hard-on for Harden, but isn't Morey also supposed to be one of the smarter GMs. Doesn't seem like a smart GM would give the Harden we've seen this season that contract--unless it was to immediately trade him to a sucker franchise for picks and players.

good nba day - teased the nets & toronto. got real lucky on the nets. if the nets were a damaged ship, they'd tow it out to sea and end it's suffering with a torpedo. the nets intent on collecting centers with the worst f/t percentages in the history of the game. everyone knows who to foul. if claxson made half the f/t he missed, the series goes on.

took the under in the dallas game - easy winner and utah is suffering. mitchell has been robustly criticized by his own team's radio broadcasting pair. has done nothing to change anyone's mind about the criticism.

toronto's defensive team athleticism is impressive to watch. i knew they'd be a bitch to play in the playoffs..could come down to a game 7 with embiid and a bad finger. if van vleet comes back, the better for toronto.

idk why i'm getting pumped up for the Wolves-Grizz game 5 tonight, i know they're going to break my heart they always do

The only person able to stop KAT in this series so far has been KAT. If he avoids stupid fouls and keeps himself in the game, Wolves have the advantage.

Games 5 through 7 are when the Wolves having the more experienced starters in KAT/Delo/PatBev should pay dividends against a youthful Memphis team; Memphis' roster's average age is about the same as Minnesota's but none of the Grizzlies starters have been in the league more than 3 or 4 seasons with Adams benching. mostly 1 or 2 years of experience among Memphis' starting five. Expect close games with the difference being Memphis making mistakes and the Wolves taking advantage--as long as Minnesota doesn't take themselves out of the games first.

Wolves just have not been able to close games out

very troubling

they could be up 50 tonight in the 4th and i'd still be worried

That Ja Morant dunk he just put down!
