man who fkn organize these games, bunch of joke ass teams man

only 3 contenders in todays league, with the rest hovering around the .500 mark ...they have no business in playoffs...

the product is a fkn joke with the increase salary crap

[SpursIndonesia]

These Bucks just have to keep pushing the pace, we will see whether the Cavs can keep up in this back to back game between the two teams.

[SpursIndonesia]

LOL, John Henson block is as clean as a mosque floor, the zebras.

[SpursIndonesia]

Dafuq, Thompson pushed Henson (who has the inside position) wrestling for rebound, and the foul called on the Bucks ??

[hater]

Nba is in a state. Been this way for years. Who watches this garvbage anyway? I canbarely watch an entire spirs game

Last nites game was a complete exception of course one of the most exciting games in years

[spursistan]

regardless of this game, this Bucks team will be handful in the next few years..Assuming Middleton comes back fine, Giannis taking another step, they would be one piece away from challenging for a ECF berth..

They can challenge for an ECF berth this year tbh. Only team head and shoulders above them is the Cavs.

Andre Drummond for 100 Millions $

Still think TOR/BOS/Hornets are better and have more seasoned guys..MIL starting back-court Delly/Snell won't cut it in the playoffs..Teams will pack the paint on Giannis and dare them to shoot (they have none with Middleton out)..It feels like they will be 7th/8th seed this year and take a game or lose 4 compe ive ones..

Still plenty of time left to get it together and maybe make a trade or two. Even without any moves they should be a tough out.

One of the laziest low IQ bigs in the league....Getting deservedly sonned by Fat Gasol..

[spursistan]

The Blazers are beyond awful

Don't worry though Santa Pop will give them a pity win on Friday by resting everyone..

[spursistan]

Det Core choking 20-point lead the Kings at home

Dame/CJ: 3-10/1-10

Portland going nowhere with this one-way back-court...Not his fault, but I wonder if Stotts seat is also getting hot..this also becoming an "effort" issue..

[TDMVPDPOY]

the way dame is playing atm with the blazers record...is he going to be allstar this year or another snub?

They should probably trade CJ/Ezeli for Ibaka/Payton.

Ibaka will get plenty of PnP opportunities w/ Lillard & Payton can penetrate so his lack of shooting shouldn't be as much of an issue essentially playing w/ 4 guys (Lillard/Aminu/Harkless/Ibaka) who can stretch the floor. Most importantly, it would also give them a defensively versatile line-up to hide Lillard's deficiencies.

Paul Allen doesn't give a damn about luxury taxes so I don't think he would mind overpaying Ibaka especially if he's a good fit. (They basically unload Ezeli in the deal & can let Plumlee walk in the summer)

As far as the Magic, the Ibaka/Biyombo frontline has been horrific so they can just play Vuc/Biyombo together & have a dynamic backcourt w/ CJ/Fournier. Gordon would also get more driving lanes & PnR opportunities playing w/ CJ. Most importantly, as a rebuilding team, they wouldn't have to overpay 30 year old Ibaka when they already overpaid Biyombo.
