I guess I didn't pay too much attention to the NBA this year but Blake Griffin is also on the Nets? A greatly aged, less athletic Griffin but still...
Uh, how old is LeBron? He was just over the square on a fast break alley oop.
Nets walking over the Celtics. Their big three look pretty lethal right now. Kyrie playing nice in the sandbox with Harden may be the key. Personally, I love Irving’s six rebounds tonight.
Will Boston put up a stand or will Brooklyn cruise to the series victory?

Clips go down 2-0 at home to the Mavs. After blowing a 3-1 lead to Denver last year in the bubble in ignominious fashion. If they lose this series, this franchise will go on suicide watch. Which is saying something considering its history. It'll be blow-it-up time for Ballmer.
Everything falling into place for the Lakers to come out of the West. Ugh.
I give Griffin credit for embracing his dirty work role with this team. I don't love his newfound embrace of flopping, but he's accepted his limitations and attempting to "star in his role". It is probably some small consolation that while the Nets are only playing him $1.2MM, Detroit will be paying him around $50MM for this season and next. Nice work if you can get it!
Yeah, most of the blame is probably lack of continuity between injuries and player-related COVID pauses, but I am interested in what the DBR Celtics fans have to say about the ultimate chemistry between Tatum and Brown. To me, it doesn't seem to exist.
The Clippers are a disaster. If Balmer looked enraged behind his mask in the bubble, what will happen this offseason? The lack of chemistry I cited between Tatum and Brown seems to go double for Leonard and George. As for Luke, he got a nice payday but you know he doesn't want to be sitting on the bench. If they fail to rally, I'd have to think Lawrence Frank is going to get the boot. I hope it doesn't impact new player development coach, Dahntay Jones!
I don't see the Suns beating the Lakers without CP3 firing on all cylinders. Let's see how his shoulder looks in Game 3.
The lineup choices they made in their last two games - losses to the Rockets and Thunder - strongly suggest tanking. They played their scrubs - including a guy literally named Scrubb - and sat their starters. If the Clippers wanted to win either of those two games, Kawhi or George would probably have played a few minutes.
Just be you. You is enough. - K, 4/5/10, 0:13.8 to play, 60-59 Duke.
You're all jealous hypocrites. - Titus on Laettner
You see those guys? Animals. They're animals. - SIU Coach Chris Lowery, on Duke
Important to note that Kawhi can opt out this summer. He's only making $34 mil so he is pretty likely to do so if only to get a more fair contract (something in the $40+ mil area code). If the Clippers lose in the first round, he could very easily take his talents elsewhere in search of more rings.
The Clippers also gave up a ton of draft picks to OKC when they brought in PG (three firsts and 2 pick swaps) which could hamstring their ability to rebuild for a while. Balmer may have a lot of money to spend, but the team could still be in real trouble if Kawhi decides he wants to move on.
